Angry Well I have decided.......

.....that if Bon Jovi announce a stadium tour in the UK for 2010 I wont be going.
It will be the first time since 1990 that I havent seen them on tour but after they broke their promise to do smaller venues after Hyde Park in 03 I am fed up with paying nearly £100 for two tickets to see a band thats an inch high.
I end up watching the big screen so might as well watch it on youtube.

If they played Hammersmith, Brixton, shepherds bush then I will be there. Maybe even the O2.

I dont know why they dont do something like 5 dates at Shepherds Bush and then do smaller venues round the UK - The length of show can be cut from 2.5 hours to 90 minutes. This would also help the band to choose carefully what to play. Not play the same songs with the odd rariety thrown in,

I saw AC/DC at Wembley this June and the sound is still awful. and it cost me £60 with booking fee. I like MK Bowl but if it pisses down (as in 96 & 01) you are fooked.

So thats it for me. Stadium tours are no more. I have been to a few gigs this year at the above places and love the smaller venues and would love to see Jovi in one. Smaller gigs are so much better than stadium gigs.
