Question:
In the early begining of the bon jovi legacy did the band play at collage campus or small gigs like that?I am trying to see if a "friends" story is true.

Answer:
Jon and some of his early bands did do college campus dates and small club shows. Bon Jovi as Bon Jovi didn't tour campuses - the band was formed when there was already a record deal.

But they're WRONG!!! I know for a fact that Bon Jovi has played on some college campusus: Mississippi State Universty on the SWW tour and University of Tennessee Knoxville on the KTF tour. I'm pretty sure some of the old boots I have from '84 were from college campuses. I also specifically remember Jon played at Ryder College for one of his DA acoustic shows. I would guess they played other college campus arenas too. So, even though they didn't "tour" campuses, they have played them.
No point to my rant. I just get annoyed by misinformation.
