"Unknown" doesn't necessarily mean "bad" now does it?

I like the way BJHQ put it:

Question:
I've heard rumors that local bands will be opening for Bon Jovi throughout this tour, is this true? I really hope not because at nearly $100 a ticket I'd like to see a band that at least has an album out! Truthfully I paid the money to see Bon Jovi but without a good opening act it almost feels like sex with no foreplay!

Answer:
On Leg One (Nov/Dec) it is a local band contest, local bands in each market then the winner of which will open a summer stadium show for the band. Nothing has been announced for Leg 2. Keep this in mind: without local radio and support of local up and coming artists, John Bongiovi would never have had his song on the WAPP Homegrown Album... the demo would never have been played... the song would never have gained traction... and record companies wouldn't have gone after him for a record deal. Pay It Forward.
