I write from the heart, and having seen a few artists - even major ones, who almost phone in their concerts, it was clear Bon Jovi have lost none of the passion. Thanks for your reply. Feel free to like my page for more posts of a similar vein. :-) Lee Gunnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16654890066740583238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5670584838519860636.post-48593061655428817352013-10-12T21:12:51.980+01:002013-10-12T21:12:51.980+01:00I just heard they are up for best live act 2013, a...I just heard they are up for best live act 2013, at one of the major award ceremonies.

My partner came with me to the Birmingham concert for the first time, reluctantly may i add. Me and my brother have been going near enough every year for the past ten years but unfortunately he couldn't make it this year, so my partner stepped in as there was no way i was missing out!! His thoughts were exactly like yours, but he left that concert with a respect for Bon Jovi that he never really had. True, he's still no super fan (like me!) but he admits that he thoroughly enjoyed himself and now doesn't mind when i play Bon Jovi full blast in the house!! He's just read your post and related to it very well :-) Me, i'm already on count down until next year when i can see my all time favourite band in concert yet again :-)<br />Bon Jovi forever!! (had to get that in) ;-)<br />RachelAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5670584838519860636.post-72078403681407098142013-10-10T15:55:57.054+01:002013-10-10T15:55:57.054+01:00My boyfriend never really understood my "obse...My boyfriend never really understood my "obsession" with Bon Jovi until last july when he went to New Jersey with me to see them. He is still not a huge fan but understand why i want to see so many concerts and gets that it's the live part that keeps us hard-core fans so loyal to them!! I'll see them 3 times only in 2013, and if i had more money, i would see them a lot more!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5670584838519860636.post-8908266652951906582013-10-10T13:30:46.795+01:002013-10-10T13:30:46.795+01:00My pleasure Brenda Jean.

I look forward to the next time they make it to merry old England!

I imagine like most Jovi-ites, that passion has not died at all. Glad you enjoyed the article. I try to be completely honest, but as I enjoyed the concert so very much, it wasn't too difficult to write. :-)Lee Gunnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16654890066740583238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5670584838519860636.post-81809105448919084882013-10-09T21:31:47.520+01:002013-10-09T21:31:47.520+01:00I went to the Manchester date..

My very first concert was a Bon Jovi concert back in 1995 at the old Wembley Stadium, I lost my voice then and have continued to lose my voice at all the 13 concerts I have been to. I love the band and will do until my dying day, I love Jon so much I even named my son after him! lol<br /> Rebekah Tappinnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5670584838519860636.post-78898724936476335852013-10-09T13:10:04.787+01:002013-10-09T13:10:04.787+01:00I believe this is the difference.

Music in my view is best heard live, and with Bon Jovi I was truly blown away by the gig; I have also never seen so many tattoos devoted solely to one group. Wonderful live act. :-)Lee Gunnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16654890066740583238noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5670584838519860636.post-77371147851770649852013-10-08T22:56:34.904+01:002013-10-08T22:56:34.904+01:00I was there and know exactly where your coming fro...I was there and know exactly where your coming from. was never a massive fan just thought they were okay went to see them on a whim and was completely blown away.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
