fans from across Hampshire have been rocking out on the Internet for
tonight's Bon Jovi gig at St Mary's Stadium, Southampton.
The New Jersey superstars have been challenging their fans to make
videos about Southampton - and the best one will be shown at St Mary's.
Followers of the band have been uploading their videos to the
Internet in the hope that they will be able to join Jon Bon Jovi on
stage in front of 30,000 revellers.
So proud Sotonians got to work setting Hampshire landmarks, from the Bargate and [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir ce lien] memorial to the Common and Netley Abbey, to their favourite tune in the hope of meeting their idols.
Tonight will be the second time that the band - famous for hits such
as Livin' On a Prayer and You Give Love a Bad Name - have played in
Southampton. Two years ago their Have A Nice Day tour was greeted by
35,000 fans and tickets have been selling quickly for tonight's show
from their Lost Highway world tour.
Southampton band Hours Til Autumn are set to rock St Mary's
tonight, ahead of the appearance of their heroes Bon Jovi. For the full
story, see Scene South on pages 32 and 33 of today's Daily Echo.

ARGH

The lucrative tours and albums will go on every couple of years, but if Bon Jovi didn't already exist in 2008, there'd be no reason to invent them.

Bon Jovi: the poodle-rockers livin' on a 22-year-old prayer Last Updated: 12:01am BST 13/06/2008 Jon Swaine reviews eighties rockers Bon Jovi in Southampton One hour and 40 minutes into Bon Jovi's set, the spotlight fell on their eponymous frontman, Jon. After his a cappella intro, the band finally launched into what is really their signature tune: Livin' on a Prayer. It was a powerful moment, but the visible relief of both the audience and the group that the wait for its soaring chorus was over told a larger truth: without it, probably none of us would have been there. Because, since the song's release in 1986, the New Jersey four-piece have somehow coasted through 100 million album sales, never quite having recaptured the infectious essence it shared with You Give Love a Bad Name, another single co-written with Eighties poodle-rock impresario Desmond Child for the Slippery When Wet album. And, while the patchiness of their subsequent output may not have been noticed when spread across 22 years, here, condensed into two hours, it could not be disguised. The crowd may have diligently completed the chorus every time Jon offered his microphone, and swooned at every glimpse of his tightly-denimed backside. But it was hard to avoid the conclusion that his band were simply going through the motions. advertisement Too many songs, such as Captain Crash, were plodding fillers, while Whole Lot of Leavin' and We Got it Goin' On were unfortunately fair representatives of their middling new album Lost Highway. Several others seemed not so much songs as three-minute slabs of power-chord introduction to an eight-bar Richie Sambora guitar solo. There were certainly high points: Runaway and Bad Medicine were slick Eighties hits to rival Mötley Crüe, and Raise Your Hands, complete with a synth line spookily similar to Van Halen's Jump, was decent fun. With Jon shaking his maracas menacingly, Keep the Faith evinced some rare mystery and brooding from a group usually displaying fixed grins. But these peaks were interrupted by too many troughs. One of the night's most interesting moments came during I'll Sleep When I'm Dead, when the band segued into Duffy's Mercy and the Rolling Stones' Start Me Up. The trouble is, covering one of the best pop songs of the year and one of the best rock-and-roll songs of all time inevitably reflects badly on the surrounding also-rans. The lucrative tours and albums will go on every couple of years, but if Bon Jovi didn't already exist in 2008, there'd be no reason to invent them.

Les reviews peuvent pas toujours être bonnes.........et il y a les jaloux ! Moi je connais pleins de raisons que si BJ avait pas existé il aurait fallu les inventer [Vous devez être inscrit et connecté pour voir cette image]

Bon Jovi rock St Mary's by Marco Gandolfi - June 13 2008 photo by Ros O'Gorman It was with effortless grace and little fanfare that Bon Jovi took to the stage for their first UK date of their Lost Highway tour at a packed St. Mary's stadium yesterday leaving the music to speak for itself. No big intro was needed to herald the entrance of the ledgendry rock act as they calmly walked onto the stage from stairwell surfacing centre stage. Jon Bon Jovi sported a black leather jacket and black jeans beaming the whitest smile I've seen grace a stage and lost no time before kicking into the title track of their latest release. Lost Highway is Bon Jovi's tenth studio album but it was back to the self-titled 1984 debut that they delved for one of my personal highlights, Runaway, with David Bryan's keyboards cutting through a warm but overbearing Southampton night. In between were a triplet of tracks that would get any Bon Jovi fan salivating; Born To Be My Baby, You Give Love A Bad Name and Raise Your Hands. The Jon Bon Jovi / Richie Sambora collaboration still working well they shared the limelight in what was a well stage-managed performance. The backdrop featured a thousand lights with screens moving across the stage so the spectacle was visable from all sides of the stadium. Playing primarily in close proximity to centre stage both Jon and Ritchie each ventured to the flanks of the imposing platform only once which did evoke a somewhat 'going through the motions' mentality but that said it was done with passion, poise and shiny white teeth. During I'll Sleep When I'm Dead Jon broke off into Duffy's Mercy declaring 'I just love that song' before taking the group into a brief taster of Stones classic Start Me Up. I'll Be There for You was delivered by Richie as Jon took a well earned rest before returning to deliver Blaze of Glory from his solo venture. During Who Says You Can't Go Home the hanging clouds opened but gratefully not to any major degree, serving primarily to cool the excited mass who were showing their vocal appreciation of the show. Livin' On A Prayer was always going to be the touchpaper moment of the night with 35,000 fans providing backing vocals, and more than a few air guitars pulled out for the magic moment. Richie's talk box effect, which mixes his voice and guitar into one signal, was pitch perfect as was drummer Tico Torres who also deserves a mention. With that they departed the stage only to return minutes later with power ballad Always, followed by Any Other Day and finishing on Wanted Dead or Alive. Having sold over one hundred and twenty million albums Bon Jovi look like a band still in there prime. In an 18 track extravaganza they chose a popular and well worked set list from their vast repertoire. They next visit these shores on July 21st at Hampden Park, Glasgow before stopping off at Manchester, Coventry, Bristol and Twickenham, be sure to catch them.
