Bon Jovi Tickets...
OK so not everyones going to be a fan, but IVe seen some of their best shows over the last 15 or so years and they are a great band live...
The last three albums have been a bit meh though so I thought itd be nice to go see them one last time, the other half would enjoy them too, soo with tickets from £45 I had a nose at the O2 tickets... right, so in the past Ive queued for a couple of hours outside wembley stadium to be in the first three or four rows, been front row of the gold circle a couple of times so a bit surprised that all the O2 gigs are seated...hmmm... so how much for front of house seats.....omg....thats gotta be a mistake surely.... nope checked a few more sites and the same thing... OK, the increase in concert ticket prices are a real bugbear of mine Ive got tickets from only 3 or 4 years back for big names playing hammersmith and shepherds bush for around £15 or £20, Foos in hyde park gold circle was £45, for jovi around £50.... so why the flying f**k would I want to pay £750 for a decent (read near the stage) seat!!???  I can see a few empty seats in the O2 next year.....

Bon Jovi are an awesome live band. I am quite tempted to go and see them again, this will be the 4th time, but not sure about the O2 as a venue.... though you do get to see well whereever you are sitting, I don't think the vibe will be as good.
Last time I saw them was a MK bowl and the time before Hyde park, that was awesome, but the very best was Wembley Stadium in 1995... one of the best days of my life!

I missed out on tickets, the only ones left were the £750 ones near the front so i thought i'd have a look on ebay and managed to get 2 tickets, quite near the stage, for HALF face value! because of 'demand' they'd added a few more dates so it hadnt sold out, that meant i could pick up tickets on ebay with pretty good sweets for much cheapness! That'll teach the touts! lol. Hopefully i'll the the same again with bon jovi, would quite like to see them!

I saw them at MK Bowl a few years ago - flippin' ace! I'm a big Bon Jovi fan, but I doubt I could be bothered to go to the O2 arena, tbh. And I've heard a few people say it's not a great gig stadium.
That said, seeing them live again would be very cool!

I saw BJ near the bottom of the bill at Monsters of Rock around 1983.
Do I win a prize? Zimmer frame possibly - perhaps a loan of Mr Jovi's? |
