Default February 26, 2018 - Hard Rock Hotel Vegas (JBJ Solo)

It's been labeled as a "solo acoustic storyteller show".

The best thing about these Runaway shows is the small bits of information we get from the Q&A and Jon's speeches during the show. That, and a performance of a rarity or two (ie Lonely).

Apart from that I really have zero interest in these kinds of things. Not to mention the price.

$2,095.00 per person Single Occupancy
$1,845.00 per person Double Occupancy (This Package is for 2 people)
$1,545.00 per person Single Package (No Hotel Option)

I know the price includes the room and some sightseeing, parties, etc., but I wish it could be done for less money and just the storytellers concert, but that's not the concept. Instead they want to provide an entire experience.

I recently heard Matt in a podcast talking about the this entire "experience" and that JBJ is just a part of it. People return for another Runaway Trip because of the friends they meet and JBJ is just a conduit.

It's much easier to inflate the profit margin when you bundle many things together, some of which people don't really want.

If Jon wanted to make the same money just from the concert alone, he would look really bad with how expensive the ticket prices look, but when you combine the trip, it looks OK.

I think it’s out of order that a millionaire charges these prices.

Are the profits going to his Soul Foundation and not just Jon and company? I don't know.

i dont want to be negative but imo these runaways trips, may be a fun experience for those able to afford them BUT look like a bone that jon threw to MAtt. He promotes them like crazy, looks like he is more involved and was interested into expanding with other artists and sports. the whole thing looks amateur...especially the photos of jon they use...in the official site they are much more careful..

on a sidenote runaway tours-bonjiovi sauce(even if some profits go to charity)-and the whole second rate clothing line dont help

Could there be a possibility of Jon singing something off Destination Anywhere in this show again? Maybe Every Heart at least?
