I´m not sure about three but two they did. The last shows from the NJ tour were the same day. La Guadlahara or something was the place.

I can confirm that info too. Jon said something about those gigs in "Bonjovi: Behind the music" or in "Bon Jovi : Believe" Both of them are documents.

I don't recall any three full show days. Jon did 3 acoustic shows some days while promoting Destination Anywhere, but they ranged from 30 minutes to 2 hours.

2 shows is good enough for me

but imagine seeing possibly the greatest rock band 3 times in one day (at a time when they were still great)...

my uncle was telling me about it and how he was queueing up at one venue and while Yes were unloading Zeppelin were loading up... and they'd shift the equipment to a different venue in town and then do a matinee

why was i born 30 years too late Becky ???

you at least have those 8 years allowing you to enjoy some of the 80s...

my first concert was when i was 12 to see BJ in Manchester, so if i had those extra 8 years that would have made it 1988 my first show... I could have gone to Birmingham

Yeah, but I spent the majority of the 80's enjoying things like the Smurfs and My Little Pony. LOL I discovered Bon Jovi in 1986, but really didn't get into being a real fan until 1988. I BEGGED and BEGGED my parents to let me go to Biloxi to see the guys when I was 13, but they wouldn't. I still remember sitting on a tractor at their business crying my eyes out because Bon Jovi were in my home state, just 3-4 hours away and I couldn't go. They did let me go to Jackson when I was 14, but even that took some major begging. HA. And to think now I'll make 10 hour trips to see the guys. There are advantages to age. I wish I'd been about 5 to 7 years older. Then I could have toured the South back when Bon Jovi toured the South.
