Sometime between the end of the previous gig, but before the start of the current one.

Wonderfully helpful there, thanks.

It would depend. It has to be after the stage and everything is set up, but before the crowds are let in, so I would suggest between 3-4. They don't soundcheck at every gig, though, so I wouldn't turn up early, expecting to hear anything.

LOL. Really?

I hope I get to hear it. When my mum and sister went to see U2 at Twickenham, they got to hear soundcheck a couple hours before the show. But I guess that's U2 and not Bon Jovi. But I agree, they probably don't do it at each gig? I'm getting there quite early anyway 'cause of train times, so if I get to hear it it's a big bonus If not I'm gonna be sitting there for hourrrsss doing like, nothing.

Yeah, I think it's kind of rare. I've only heard it once, but that was pretty cool.

you can usually tell when they soundcheck, they start playing Fields Of Gold through the speakers...
