North American Summer Tour

Unfortunately, I don't think there's going to be a Bounce show for me in 2003. If, and this is a big if, I could possibly get a decent seat for the Toronto show, I might consider going, but I don't have a full time job yet, so I really can't afford to spend too much money on a 2-day Bon Jovi vacation unless the seats were really amazing.

im going to the Giants stadium if I win the lottery in the next month or so!!!

Like Kev said, unless I win the lottory in the next few months, there won't be anymore Jovi shows for me this year. Perhaps if there was a closer show, but Washington D.C. is far away. And $80 plus a ticket is a little extreme.

Well, I would have loved to hit more shows but at these ticket prices, it looks like I will have to settle with Columbus & Cincinnati. I've been to four shows this tour already, which was not cheap considering two of them were 8 hours away. Of course, if my seats aren't GREAT, I may even skip the summer shows. I think four shows is enough with shitty seats so at this point it just depends.

I will make the two Giants Shows.

Originally we also planned to go to Hartford, CT, since we are there anyway on that day but no good tix went on sale, all good tix seems to be reserved for fanclub and other things so we didn't buy tickets.

Chicago, Alpine Valley, Indy, Detroit, and Cincinatti. I think I'll skip Columbus...the ticket prices are a bit steep this time.

Wow! How do you people afford all of these shows! I am in awe I tell you.

Just one night at Giants for me.

Didn't I mention, Mouse, that I had to sell my right arm to go? No, I'm just lucky I have a good paying job. The tickets for these shows will end up costing me around $500, but what's money anyway, if you can't use it to enjoy yourself? Considering that I think that there will be a lengthy break after this tour...I consider it money well spent. My bank account can recover in time for the next tour.

Good point! Of course I have a mortgage payment on my house...lol. What's a house anyway? BJ all the way!

You will have to write me a review, so I can live through you!!

Not to mention the fan club tix can only be purchased one ticket per card. I know I would have taken 3 other people with me but they wouldn't & didn't have time to join the fan club. If we had the time, I would have paid the $105.00 for the three memberships just to get good seats. Of course, I am glad I am not able to do this 'cause the drive to Cincinnati & Columbus would've killed me on gas money. There are far too many "presales, fan club tix, etc." for these shows. There are awesome fans out there who have been with Bon Jovi since the beginning but maybe they never thought about the fan club or don't have a computer to register with AMEX for the presales or just don't want to incur the costs of the fan club considering the HIGH ticket prices for the summer dates. It kinda sucks for a lot of people. I think more FANS get screwed by these kinds of sales then fans that actually get lucky with them. To pick out a couple hundred seats in a place that holds 20,000+ people and treat them like they have *seniority* really sucks! From the front row to the farest back row should have the same opportunity to get tickets rather than be excluded from the good seats for not paying more money to get them. Isn't a fan who buys a concert ticket enough for Bon Jovi these days????? Why make it impossible for any fan to get good seats?
