Greece got one show in 35 years. Croatia, Serbia got zero. They could do a Croatia or Serbia show the least. Don’t forget that Jon and Richie in various interviews kept mentioning Greece as a big surprise and if their best concerts during the 2011 Open Air tour. Greece had the most expensive tickets of the tour yet the Olympic Stadium of Athens was sold out. Bon Jovi got many fans in Greece plus thousands of tourists passing by Athens in the summer. If they could sell out a gig, a Greek one would be very likely. Last but not least, Jon visits regularly Greece for his summer vacation along with his family

Yet again, Greece has 24% tax on concerts which will be reduced to 6% in the next couple of months. The Greek festivals didn’t make any announcement yet so unless it happens at a later date along with Dublin, Bon Jovi won’t return to Greece for now. I’m going to Bucharest. If a Greek date occurs then even better!

It just makes you wonder why Tallinn or Bucharest and not Athens, they did great the last time they’ve been here.
