2024 World tour

I haven't gone to a Bon Jovi concert since the 2013 tour, and I won't be changing that come 2024. I couldn't bear to listen to Jon singing in 2016, and things have gotten a lot worse since then. I honestly don't know how anyone who knows anything about the current state of his voice could pay over €/$100 for a concert ticket.

Same for me.
I can't even make it through a whole recorded song. I just can't bear his fcuked up vocals, even with all those studio tricks. So having to hear it live for 1,5 hours during which he will sound even worse than in the studio...impossible for me and not worth the money at all.

My last show was Cologne, Germany in 2013. I guess there are worst shows to call it quits.

Yeah when I left Cologne 10 years ago, caught inbetween the high of the concert and visible cracks in Jon's stage persona with the Richie dilemma, I said to my cousin: "if it all ends tonight, it was one hell of a 10 years with Bon Jovi concerts." After Munich 2019, I thought: "I should've stuck to my words from 6 years ago." No way I'll make that mistake again.

Kinda sad I didn't catch them in Vienna for the WAN tour, but I just had no interest in spending that kinda money when Richie had "temporarily" left. Looking back, them refunding the money was pretty awesome, considering the public often perceives them as a "solo band".

Looks like I won't ever catch them live now, though. Didn't have the kinda money to spare before (especially plus travelling), and now, it's just... not the kinda memory I wanna make.

I dont think there will be a European spring/summer tour in 2024.I see them playing in the US and maybe South America next fall,but Europe,definitely in 2025.
Were at the middle of December and nothing has been announced yet to tour in Europe in 2024,I think its too late.

On the other hand,like someone said before,I never thought Id say this,but I dont think I will go to a show on the next tour,and not only because of Jons vocals,but because of the current line up of the band.I have the feeling that is a cover band,I dont like Shanks,never like Phil X,and Everett does not fit the band (for me).
I dont see anything in the live performance of the band that made me a die hard fan back in the day.
The only thing that could make me attend a show would be Richie joining the band,if not,I saw enough of the current band in 2019.

I haven't seen the band since the O2 run in 2010. I was at the last show of the run when they played a few These Days songs (It's Hard Letting You Go, These Days, Diamond Ring) which I loved hearing. If that's the last time I see them, I'm happy with that - I really enjoyed the show.

The only thing that would make me go is the return of Richie, just to see them all together one last time.

Maybe they do it with another artist in line, like they tried to do with Bryan Adams before COVID hits (I wonder how that would work out tbh).

Maybe they can open for Bruce during his 2024 run in Europe

If they come to Europe, Portugal, Spain and Italy will be definitely included.

That's a really good idea. A joint headline tour would be a sure fire way to sell tickets. Jon has to have been watching how well the Leppard/Motley tour did. I wonder who they would team up with though? Def Leppard would have been an obvious one and Bryan Adams would work in Europe as joint headliners, but Bryan already has his own dates on sale. I can't see Jon going out with any Motley Crue types? Journey?

There seems to be growing news about a stint at The Sphere in Vegas

Def Lep just announced a co-headlining tour with Journey otherwise that would have been perfect.
