How much are the tickets for Hard Rock Calling usually?

I think I paid about 60 pounds this year. I went to Sunday. Saturday and Friday were cheaper though. And if the date is correct, Jovi would play on Saturday.

Hmmn that's pretty good! Think I'll add London to my list then :D Thanks for the info!

It's strange that they're playing a festival when they could easily host their own show. These Hard Rock calling shows are about 50,000 capacity. Their last show in Hyde park attracted 80,000+.

I just can't see why the band would do it.

They will get a shed load of money to play and won't have to drag their stage production to the gig

Casual London fans have already had their fill of the band after 12 chances to see them at the o2. A festival show is a good idea. They would be unlikely to attract the 92 000 they did for Hyde Park in 2003 and Wembley would be pushing it too. Save that for, dare I say, the farewell tour.

Nice - Bruce played this event 2 years ago and I have a nice Blu-ray to commemorate the moment.
