Maybe you are not so special after all although to can take some comfort in their twitter message about being off to 'WONDERFUL Europe."
If you're after double-standards... how about the fact that you are having ago at 'all our comments' ... cut back on the generalisations please; there are plenty of English, Scottish, Welsh and Irish people on here who NEVER get involved in the petty little squabbles between a substantial amount of the American and Europeans on this board.

I have to say, from the post above, I am really trying to find the sympathy you mention but it would take an entire team of CSIs to locate it amongst sheer glee at a post you've clearly been desperate to write.

Dan - go read the front page of the New York Times - there are far worse things going on in the world.

To all those stuck with tickets, who are frustrated, I understand. Keep your expectations low... but go.

I have no regrets about my show this tour without Richie (Dallas)... and Richie is 50% of BJ to me. If Richie had been there, it'd been my favorite show to date. It most likely will be the best Jon Bon Jovi show you've ever seen.

You are one of the few sensible people on this board.

I love your enthusiasm, but it literally wont. Unless Jon pulls a few surprises out the bag, like Little Bit Of Soul ort Without Love, or something random like that it is gonna suck big time. I plan to get there at 7:55pm (assuming 8pm start time) and probably leave before the encore to beat the traffic
