Whos gonna pay for an 02 show
 
Im here trying to buy a ticket
I aint looking for a loan
Never get back what im giving
Wont someone help me someone justify
Why the ticket prices are so god damn sky high
Whats on my mind?

Whos gonna pay for an 02 show
Pay for an 02 show
Remortgage the house ?
But I dont wanna go broke
Jonny ill be damned if i dont raise my hand ( and flip the bird )
Whos gonna pay for an 02 show?

Empty pockets full of worry
I had to get 8 jobs and it was hard enough just getting by
With the grace of god ill get us two, i really dont know what ill do
Now sing that song and look me straight in the eye
Day after day and night after night

Oh oh oh oh
Whos gonna pay for an 02 show
Pay for an 02 show
Remortgage the house ?
But I dont wanna go broke
Jonny ill be damned if i dont raise my hand ( and flip the bird )
Whos gonna pay for an 02 show?

I lost my pension
You took my faith
You were our friend
These were our dreams
These were our hopes
These are our streets
Can you hear me?

Whos gonna pay ?

Not me........

Bloody ticktet prices, If I go I'll end up been stood WAY up at the back .

Think I am going depsite immense problems besides finance but the prices are an absolute joke and need to be sorted out.

I need to vent.

I aint missed a tour in 16 years.
There is no way in hell im paying over 60 quid to sit in the nose bleed seats to hear jon bon jovi sing about work for the working man when hes complicit in screwing the true fans who have stuck by his band all these years.

If Elvis himself came back from the dead i wouldnt pay 1000 pounds to watch him in the front pit.

The fact is no one in this world can make jon bon jovi do something he doesnt want to do.

How are we meant to listen to you Jon talking about getting two jobs and the unemployment line when the only people who can afford to pay these top prices are very very rich indeed.

So what if you made less money doing a stadium tour Jon , so fkn what? At least your fans could spend a reasonable amount of money and queue up all day in all weathers to get a decent spot in the crowd.

The front of stage tickets for the 02 are about what i make in a month Jon. If i want to be front row at your 02 shows i would have to save my disposable income for almost 6 months.

Maybe im wrong maybe when the tickets go on sale you can get a decent seat for 50, 60 quid. I hope so. :mad:

I completely agree with the poster above. I have just made the decision not to go to the O2 and wait for more dates. Because there is a blatent gap in June when they will tour the UK and a few more dates in Europe. I don't care what they say now, it is NOT the only dates in 2010 because already Obie has said about the Paris date. I would quite happily go to Paris than travel 2 hours to London and go to the O2. The O2 is an awesome arena but there is no way I would pay that much to actually be able to see Jon and Richie. I am not paying £200 so I can make out their faces.

Suck It AEG and all who rot within you.

I got goose bumps.
and as much as I'm upset, I can't help but feel a little better knowing I am not alone in this...

l wish Jon would see that. He needs that slap in the face apparently. and with the way things go now - a kick in the balls should then follow...

he could see it if he cared here or on backstage
guess this is the first time ever backstage is full of hate threats for the tour they“ll have a hard time deleting them all

Wow what ridiculous prices. I think the band has just lot alot of fans. They are very unhappy on backstage - someone even started a RIP Tommy & Gina thread.

Jon does not give a rats arse about the fans anymore - just milk them for every $ that they DON'T have. When the "theme" of this album was first mentioned I thought Jon was being hypocritical. Bet he wrote most of that in his multi million dollar penthouse.

If they come to Oz I am only buying a normal tickets. I refuse to pay more just to be closer. After seeing Pink for the total cost of $99 and it was one of the best shows I have ever seen, I realised how much Jon does rip his fans off.

I really feel for the fans in the UK - and we know there are enough blind crazy fans to pay that price even if it means putting themselves and family etc under a greater financial strain.

I have been a fan for over 20 years and this really makes me feel sick inside.
