It all feels really desperate to me. 2020 didn't sell and no one cares for it but a few Bon Jovi fans. He then starts up a fanclub to promote christmas songs recorded with a band no one gives a shit about just so he's able to have an audience for them while at the same time being fully aware that the one thing people really want (unreleased stuff with the real band) is not being offered here. Instead, he offers a live recording of 2020 with bonus songs which'll be more hits everyone's grown tired of hearing and teases early stuff just so people might sign up only to let them down as there's just no way they'll be releasing live records from the era people still cared for this band. It's honestly no wonder people continue to lose interest and yet they continue down the same path over and over again. Is this 2020 vision?

No. I don't agree with any of this. Dammed if he does, dammed if he doesnt.
This is Jon getting with the times and opening the archives like Bruce and so many others.
A project this massive was in the works for years. Well before 2020 was even a thing. I met Obie during the This House tour and wrote a long post about this 4 years ago. I also personally asked him for those Red Bank shows and I couldn't be more excited to see what comes out of this.
Fans desperately wanted and asked for a Christmas Album for years and it's the holiday season. That might not even be part of this package.
2020 didnt do as well with sales but neither did These Days... It's not Jon's typical release due to the pandemic but it probably sold no different then This House and all the others but it just wasn't connected to ticket sales. The album however was a huge success with the fans.
I think Jon is past the point of "desperate". I think if anyone is desperate, its you. You have limited details like the rest of us but yet you post a review on it like it's a matter of fact. Just relax and stop being you for once.
