I really hope Jon's ready. Having Bryan Adam's perform before you puts a lot of pressure on a vocalist. His voice live is awesome!!!,

I cant see how Jon dares to have Bryan opening for them.
Bryan is going to destroy Jon.
Ive seen Bryan last December and he is in an incredible vocal shape,while Jon,we all know how Jons voice is....

Interesting take but how so? They've had openers like Goo Goo Dolls, Daughtry, Kid Rock, etc all bigger draws for their time period. This isn't anything different then that, it's just different than having a local opener.

Totally agree there...It’ll especially be notable for fans who like both artists. Having to ‘listen’ to Jon after Bryan...lord

Aloha !

I'd have paid good money to see this show 10 years ago but nowadays a ticket for a Bryan Adams show costs half the price of a Bon Jovi ticket over here. I'm wondering how Jon is going to survive back to back shows in New York considering his voice was toast by the time he'd done 5 shows in Europe. I've a feeling this'll be the start of the 18-20 song setlists.

They've clearly booked a big support act though. Bryan Adams needs these shows for the exposure and Bon Jovi are obviously aware they can't sell enough tickets to warrant arena shows anymore. I'm sure there's limitations to Bryan Adams' show though. No use of visuals and no light show. If he's allowed to do that he'll play Bon Jovi off the stage very much like Kid Rock did back when they supported Bon Jovi on an off night in New Jersey.

This is very different. Goo Goo Dolls and Daughtry can't be compared to Bryan Adams. Bryan Adams has over 10 top 10 hits in the Billboard Hot 100 including several big number 1 songs much like Bon Jovi had. Goo Goo Dolls have had 2. Daughtry had 2 as well. Both of these acts combined still haven't sold the amount of records Bryan Adams has sold. I'd say this is one of their biggest support acts they've ever had.

But Jon is wayyy beter frontman. Bryan is not even close to Jons today standard. With no vocal Jon made incredible show in Warsaw last year

Bryan Adams will probably wipe the stage with Jon, he's held up way better.

No one sad Adams is bigger act. Jovi are way bigger act and Jon is better frontman on stage....but not vocal wise. Saw Adams about 3times and he is great but he repeats the same formula about 15 years...

Aloha !

How is he a great frontman if he can't do the one thing he needs to do anymore? Bryan Adams pisses all over Jons today standard. Jon's glued to a mic half the show churning out the wrong notes and the other half is just him waving and flashing smiles to make up for the fact he can't sing anymore. I'd say it's more of a testament to the intelligence of Bon Jovi's audience failing to realize this than the quality of Jon Bon Jovi as a frontman.

Yeah, unlike Bon Jovi who have clearly been re-inventing themselves by playing You Give Love A Bad Name as the third song as opposed to the second and end with Wanted Dead Or Alive instead of Livin' On A Prayer. Exciting times.

Holy sh**t I could have never imagined one of my favorite artist opening for Bon Jovi

Saw Bryan 3 times and the last one - exactly one month ago - was absolutely the best one. Amazing voice and superb stage presence

He'll probably do a 45/50 mins hits packed set - which will shits all over nowadays Bon Jovi
