Fair point and I can only answer in Bounce's case: for them it's just a way of having fun on weekends and party with a lot of people. They all follow different day jobs and just want to play these shows as long as they enjoy doing so and as long as it doesn't interfere with their family lives too much.
Even though some members of them used to be in an original band prior to Bounce.

And to think this was the year where Olli really had vocal problems...
Luckily, he got them fixed.

I think we have to think about Olli's problems on a whole different level than any of Jon's ones... I mean, even with a "shot" voice he sounds better than Jon has ever done since probably the KTF tour!

Yeah of course. I remember having been to one rare weekend where his voice really went off (for his standards) between the gigs on Friday and Saturday and he got hoarse. Yet people kept wondering how he'd even sound if this was his "off day". Thinking back, that's when his vocal problems actually started and he was singing with a rather rough voice for some time. But then again, he's never had a vocal lesson up to this day, so it's really just moaning on a very high level.

By the way, as you clearly know Olli, have you ever discussed Jon's vocal problems with him? I think he's as aware of them as all of us other diehards (as he must be one as well).

I wish Bounce came to the USA - I'd love to see them live.

They don't care about the current stuff anymore and I guess he hasn't really seen a live performance past 2011 where Bounce had gone to the concert in Dusseldorf (after I had repeatedly told them in what great shape the band was during this period) and that had pretty much been the final nail in the coffin. I think that at one point he's said that Jon just can't sing anymore these days and that it's a sad thing, but something you simply can't deny.

sorry mate, I have seen Wrong Jovi and they were terrible. The base player is a novice or is just poor. Have a look at the link to bon jovi forever and compare to Wrong Jovi.
