2011 tour dates.....???
 
A few of us here in the midwest (mainly Wisconsin) are wondering why the entire state is being ignored for the entire tour! No dates on the 1st leg and no dates on the 2nd leg. If there are more dates to be announced later, great, if not I am extremely dissapointed in not having any shows in either Madison or Milwaukee! We ALWAYS sell out, so that isn't it!
Any thoughts as to why we are getting the shaft?

thanks

Because both Chicago and Minneapolis/St. Paul are fairly close, that would be my only reasoning.

Honestly, i think that is EXACTLY why. Milwaukee is only 1.5 hours from Chicago so the two shows at Soldier Field and the one at the UC cover them, and im not sure how far St. Paul is from Madison but cant be more than a few hours. Also, Milwaukee had a show right before the The Circle Tour at summerfest

It's a pretty far drive. From the twin cities to Milwaukee it takes around 6 hours. As far as I know there isn't a venue in Madison that could hold a Bon Jovi show indoors, so the Bradley Center would be the only venue I could see them playing.

Actually there are two venues in Madison that they have played at and sold out. One being the Coliseum (where In these Arms was filmed) and the Kohl Center! The Kohl center is the same as the Bradley center (but cleaner).
Sorry they always play either Madison or Milwaukee regardless of whether they play Chicago. Also, it is 5+ hours from Madison to Twin Cities.
Summerfest was a non-tour show, which was great but it would be nice to have them back.
Oh Well-
