It's a shame they don't have the really early version I remember with the brown background and the live from London / These Days style font.

I remember that being the first website I visited in the mid 90s when I went to an Internet Cafe armed with a book of websites

That and being in a grotty webcafe in Barking at 2am watching the Crush studio concert Livestream in 2000 over some really crumby internet compared to today!

That Bounce site was great, as well as the lamented AXS service and associated forum.

The 2002-2005 website was the best they had IMO. Very rock'n'roll looking even in the early 2000's. It even shows today's date in the News section but oviously the news itself is rather old. Wierd seeing that website on a widescreen monitor now though.

That WayBack website was posted here some years ago and whoever posted it gave a link to how this website looked back in the day. Nifty website.

Aah, the memories of me being a five-year-old and visiting bonjovi.com with the help of my Dad... I can still remember it like it was yesterday. And now I can visit the site again. Thank you, whoever you are, for the link!
