Default Tour Dates in UK
Ok, great to see new album with some decent songs on. Not their strongest, however I think they have been below par for a while.... anyways.... new tour. Excellent if you live in England, one date in Scotland and nothing in Wales where I live.

So my 'nearest' venue will be Coventry. A good 3 hour drive from where I live, so given travel and cost of tickets will probably cost me over £100 to see Bon Jovi.

To be honest I'd rather see a tribute band. I'm fed up with with the bands 'big venue' mentality. I'm posting here as at least this site has the latest news, check out the 'Official' fan club website, it says that there are no current tour dates.... Fans? who needs them eh?

a 3hr trip is nothing man, its all part of the package. I live in ireland and i regurlarly have to make a trip over to the mainland or down to dublin to see bands i really want to see. Bon Jovi are a global band, i hardly expect them to come play ur back garden or anything.

Ill be going to dublin and Wembley this tour around, havnt even thought about costs but got my tix sorted already. (a student loans a great thing...!)

HAHAHAHA - thats so funny - oh to have the privilege of only having to Drive 3 hours and only to spend £100 to see Bon Jovi.

I tell you what, you wanna swap, I gotta fly for 27 hours and then drive god only knows how long and will be spending thousands to go to all the 6 UK dates.

(for the record I am in Australia)

Got to laugh...

I have to travel for 1,5 hours on a plane. Then I have to find the ****ing hotell somwere in the big city of london,then I need to figure out were the hell Wembley is located.
This cost a lot of money, for this weekend I`d probaly spend up to 600 - 800 us dollars!! But, I dont complain, I am just happy to have teh oppurtunity to see them for the third time It means a lot to me, so the money i well spent.
