That they hear Bon Jovi is doing 20 dates at the O2 arena at the end of the year to help cover the Michael Jackson dates. Hmm.... 20 seems alot, but maybe not if the new record is a hit in the UK and Europe.

Must be a misprint, theres no way they would sell 400,000 tickets in London.

I think the promoters have said in the media that they are looking to other acts, Bon Jovi being one, to cover 20 or so dates between them of MJ's cancelled shows. Robbie and Abba are the other acts who are among those to have been approached.

Benny Andersson has confirmed that ABBA won't be playing any of the shows no matter how much money is offered (apparently they've been offered $1billion to reunite but obviously refused)

Whitney Houston is a rumour that keeps cropping up, its looking likely the O2 will host her comeback shows!

I read that Robbie said it wasn't true.

Whoa whoa now just recently Prince did 21 shows at the O2, Prince is great but lets be realistic when was the last time Prince had a hit. If this was back in the Purple Rain era no questions asked.

Anyways the Band could probably sell out anywhere from 10- 14 shows maybe and probably the rest half full or so.
