Aloha !

As you might know I have a lot of knowledge about the releases from Bon Jovi. www.bonjovi-archives.com (don't try it yet, it doesn't work) will be my website that will have the most information about the releases from Bon Jovi and their touring history on the net. There are websites that have that sort of information on it (www.bonjovicollectors.com) but they're far from complete, and a mess to search through. Mine will be the best.

So far I've almost finished the Bounce section, meaning that almost all releases all over the world are ordered in country and continent. Release dates are impossible to find out, so I'll skip that part.

There'll be a tour history on it for each tour, with setlists, schedules of how many times all songs were played, which covers were played and so on. The official press photographs will be on there if I can find them, which is a pain in the ass for the era's before Crush, and the official promotion interviews will be on there.

Is there anything you'd like to have on there? In the future, there might come a bootleg future (if a show has been bootlegged, what quality etcetera) but I don't have the time to work on that yet. Please don't suggest a picture section because picures take a lot of space, and you can easily find that sort of information anywhere else.

So, suggestions? Please tell me and I might take it into consideration. The website isn't working yet, but as soon as the Bounce section is finished (probably within one week if there won't be too many new ideas) that one will be online.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastian

WOW, for the description you are giving, I have no doubts it will be a great site with lots of info and I believe you must be putting a lot of work on it. I'm looking forward to it. Thanks for letting us know.

A complete tour site with dates and setlists and audio and video bootlegs would be fantastic Seb. If you need any help with organizing or typing it up, let me know. I'm happy to help.

is this your April Fools day joke. U hate Bounce and a lot of other albums.

If this isnt your april fools day wind up then where is it ? Have you changed personality, where is the real Seb ........

Aloha !

All the setlists are already typed out and the links are made. That section is finished. :)

The thing with including audio and videobootlegs is that I want the grading to be absolutely correct. And if it will go online, it must be complete. I hate websites that have "under construction" listed everywhere. Since not that many people have entire tours as a bootleg, they can't really help. It's too much work to try to find out which quality what bootleg is, it would mean that I'd have to contact several people, and would have to wait for lots of information.

I also want to add what makes a specific bootleg special, why it should be in a collection, and someone who doesn't have a bootleg himself but knows the quality from reading it on some website can't comment on that, and can't help either.

So if you're willing to help me with that, and able to give me these things from every show that's been bootlegged from the Bounce Era, you're more than welcome to help me finishing that part. I understand, it's a lot of work, which is why I'm not that bothered to make it. The website is mainly focussed on the original releases, and bootlegs aren't original.

Another note: I'm talking about bootlegs in general. Not the silver discs, that's impossible to find out and it will never be complete.

Aloha !

No, it's not my April fools day. Several people have seen a sneak preview, and I chose Bounce because it's the one that I have the most information about. But don't worry, I still think that the album sucks.

If you want to, I will post a screenshot (taken from Dreamweaver - a program to create websites with) later to show you all how it will look, so you'll be sure that this isn't fake.

I hope its not a joke cos that site sounds dead useful!! :)

How about a section on quotes from the band??? The setlists bit sounds great though!!

That sounds really cool ... I DO hope it's not a joke :P ... because **no doubt** today is April's fool day ;) ...
if it's a joke .. please then think about it work on it and make it real :wink:

Aloha !

I've got a book full of quotes from the band, but where should I categorize it? And am I arsed enough to type it all out? I don't think so...:)
