Default The Bon Jovi Experience

Has anyone seen this tribute band play before? They're playing at my local this Saturday..should be a good warm-up for Twickers and only £6 too!

I wonder if they'll have a golden circle?

i've seen them , really enjoyed them at the time. Obviously not a touch on the realy bon jovi but quite fun.

The lead singer is a dick though , really arrogant!

I wouldnt bother. Ive seen them before. Awful tribute band. There are much better BJ tribute acts out there. The lead singer kinda looks like JBJ and he knows the moves and the script, but other than, he don't sound like him what-so-ever!

Aloha !

Maybe us Jovitalkers can invade the place so me and Thierry can do some of our magic? Give us 2 guitars and we'll tear the ****ing roof of the place.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

A few of us have already made plans to go down...to be honest I don't mind if they're crap, as long as it's a good laugh. That lead singer does look like a bt of a plank though (the pretend one..not the real one!)

Hi All

Ive seen em twice in Cannock Staffs. The singer isn't great and yes he is a bit arrogant. The band however are quite tight and if you close your eyes the music is quite authentic. The singers worst traite his is appaling American accent. But hey for £6 they are a laugh.

Best tribute bands at moment though i reckon in order are

1. Dressed To kill (Kiss)
2. Deft leppard (look nothing like em but sound brilliant)
3. Hells Bells (ACDC this man could be Angus)

Ricoh 24/06 and my 5 year old Emily cannot wait (Bon Jovis youngest hardcore fan she knows the word better than me lol)

I've heard them on MySpace, I think it was. Hmmm...can't remember if I liked them or not now.

Most BJ tributes are shit, though. Atlough there is one on MySpace, an accoustic tribute, they're actually really good IMO.

Aloha !

The best Bon Jovi tirbute band was Kon Chauvi. Shame about the German accent but for the rest they were brilliant. Absolutely mindblowing and it's a shame they don't play that often anymore.

Here's what they are capable of playing: http://www.kon-chauvi.de/english/playlist.htm

Salaam Aleikum,
