Bon Jovi Tour 2011
Mar 11, 2011 Tours
Who hasn’t heared by now of Jon Bon Jovi? He is one of the greatest rock stars that together with his band, called Bon Jovi, make the best live shows everytime they have a concert. Even if they are in music industry for a long time, Bon Jovi don’t quit on doing what they like more: singing for the crowd. The number of their fans is enormous and it keeps on growing due to the amazing job they always do when releasing a new song or album and when performing live on a stage in front of millions of people.
Last year Bon Jovi decided to start one of their biggest tours ever performed that will last for two years. Since their “Jersey Syndicate Tour” in 1960s, Bon Jovi never organized such a big event again, until now. The Circle Tour is planned to spread on 5 continents, with 80 shows performed in 2010 and more than 50 to be performed this year. In these concerts they support their “Greatest Hits” album, dubbed by the “Bon Jovi Live”. The Circle Tour begun on February 11, 2010 and will end with the last concert they will have this year on July 31st . 144 shows will be held on this tour, most of them being already performed with success by the band. Bon Jovi had another tour during 2008-2009, with Kid Rock as an opening guest star, but it didn’t spread on so many continents. The tickets for The Circle Tour were quickly sold, at a short time after they were announced to be on sale and additional places had to be added due to the big number of fans who wanted to see the legendary group’s live shows.
The total number of legs in this tour is 8 and all the shows performed so far were sold out and huge successes. The bands and artists performing in The Circle Tour are : Kid Rock, One Republic, Dashboard Confessional, Fuel and Train. Besides these special guests, Bon Jovi organized a contest for the North American bands and gave the winners a chance to perform in the opening of their shows for one night. The contest, called SuperBAND tonight, had many participant bands, but only the ones elected by Bon Jovi were allowed to show their talent on the opening stage. An usual setlist of their concerts in this tour has about 22 songs and 3 more as encore. With “The Circle Tour” the Bon Jovi band managed to prove us once again, why they deserve to be a legend of the music rock.
