Default Bon Jovi are no longer a Rock Band...

heres why

"Question:
I read here that the guys rarely use a bus on tour. What if the two venues are only one or two hours apart? Would they still fly or just take a limo? It seems like flying would still take longer in that kind of circumstance.

Answer:
Probably fly. Maybe take a car. But no bus - the bus would mean they were sleeping/travelling in it at the same time - not the case. The band might use one city as a hub, then fly to/from the shows each night if the distances are close enough.

How depressing. I guess when you have a TON of money, a bus is no longer necessary.

Goose, I really like you, but I think that's one of the stupidest things I've read lately. If you had the money to fly or take ANY means other than a bus (one of the worst forms of transportation on the planet) why not do it? Buses are slow and not as safe as air or car travel. Their travel arrangements have no bearing on the music they make. And, trust me, after seeing them in Atlanta last week, I assure you they are still very much a rock band. They paid their dues in bus-riding years ago.

Looks like someone has no sense of humour, or even humor.

You're probably just jealous because someone said it was stupid before YOU had the opportunity to do so. :P

That post was an attempt to get me to defend myself after which you would say that I haven't got a sense of humour, or even humor. I aint bitin' the bait.
