If you asked the average person (especially in America) as to who has more credibility...Bon Jovi or U2...U2 would come out on top 99/100 times. I love both but the point I was trying to make in the article was that I don't feel Bon Jovi is in a realm where they deserve or have the right to charge $300+ for a ticket.

I didn't mean a lot with the U2 comment, but I've even had serious discussions with most Bon Jovi fans and in the end, they usually agree with me that U2 is just on a different plane than Bon Jovi. Not better or worse, just different.

(Just my 2 cents....nothing more)
You have a good point. Regardless of if you like the material or not, U2 tends to come out on top, usually, credibility wise simply because the songs are less fun.
