Live were shit while supporting Bon Jovi. They're very, very big in Holland compared to anywhere else, as far as I'm aware, and I've heard every single they released about 50 times here on the radio, so I could say I knew them very well. However, as soon as they started playing it was awful, the "highlight" being them tuning a guitar over the PA in the middle of a song during their show in Hyde Park.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

I actually bought 3 of their albums after seeing them as openers on Bounce tour in Gelsenkirchen. Certainly the loudest support act I've ever witnessed.

If they have any sense and good researchers they'd be fools not to hire The Answer as a support act....would help break a truly brilliant band into the market...was the only support band i've ever seen open up at whitesnake and the crowd paid them 100% attention and went mental!

Cormac would but JBJ too shame in the vocal department, so i doubt it he'd feel comfortable with a support act like them. (for anyone who hasn't heard them the singer is Robert Plant reincarnated). The Answer are on the rise, with support slots already with rock acts like Aerosmith, Whitesnake and The Rolling stones amongst others, I suppose Bon Jovi would be an option.

Persoanlly I think Alterbridge would be an awesome opening act, as theyr currently touring their new album and will be back in the UK next summer to do some festivals.

If its Big N Rich I think i may infact cut my ears off

JBJ - I believe

"Sambora's face is a mask of joyous disbelief, as if previously unaware of his ability to play the instrument at all. Reaching the last fistful of notes, he does a fair impression of a man who is actually ejaculating into his jet black flares."

If it's not B&R, the we are more likely to get someone more 'pop' like All American Rejects/Orson/Maroon 5/My Chemical Romance. Any one of them bands would compliment Jovi well and are all well-known in the UK.

The likes of The Answer/Alter Bridge are too 'rock' for what BJ are about now, hence why Nickelback & Live got a relatively poor reception.

I hope they stick with 'pop'.
