Wow bronchitis! Now thats serious, good decision to postponed, better safe than sorry, of course people here will bitch and complain as usual but health is no.1 priority. God willing he will be 100% next week and I think he will be more stronger and looking more foward to performing than anything else, he is going to give his best performance yet, IMO.

From memory, those epic Sydney shows in 2010 (Dec 17, 18 & 19) where they played STBI, I Believe, Dry County, These Days, Last Man Standing, Just Older, I'd Die For You, Homebound Train, Living In Sin, Never Say Goodbye, Something for the Pain... shall I go on?

Here is Billboard link on it - https://www.usnews.com/news/entertai...-weekend-shows

Yup, could turn into pneumonia. Health is #1 and preventing possible voice damage for the future. Always best to get well asap instead of letting it drag on and on.

Love your positive words that he will get well and then give the best shows ever.

"the decision was difficult to make but made in the interest of delivering the full, powerhouse performance Bon Jovi is known for" according to a band spokesperson

Thought they would have waited to see how long it takes him to recover before rescheduling.

I'm guessing his Bronchitis peaked today (which is why they postponed) and unless he decides to really start singing in the shower, he will be fine by the 10th.

I think I read somewhere that singing or just being in the shower, especially a warm shower, its good for the throat, helps clear up any phlem, ok I hope I am not being too graphic when I say that, sorry! But I do remember reading this in some magazine, I could be wrong.

Every time I get a sore throat, it turns to bronchitis, even when I get a decadron shot immediately. If you're not careful, bronchitis will easily turn to pneumonia. It's good that he is following the doctor's recommendations. I can only imagine how painful it was to postpone.

Raise your hand if you're glad taking YOUR sick day doesn't affect 20,000 people.

Good call on their part.
Anxious to see what this means for Toronto as I'm driving there from Ottawa, just booked my hotel recently AND took my 2 personal days for the year on Monday and Tuesday (I have lots more but the personal days where the only legit ones I could take).

Anyways, for me....

Best case scenario: He's actually fine by Monday, although from what I've read, bronchitis can take 2-3 weeks to fully heal.

2nd best case: postponed to some (any) week end.

bad case: postponed to a weekday. I'm out over 600$ in tickets and hotel.

worst: he tries to sing and scraps his vocal chords even more.
