My friend Els gave me some great news today: the ticketsale for Bon Jovi's belgian performance has (at last) begun! I know, a lot of my friends now go: Bon Jovi? Yaikes! But I really am a sucker if it comes to him. I just love his songs, although one of my dear friends calls his music recycled pop with some leftover guitars as a side dish ;-D
What can I say, les gouts et les couleurs...
I can remember last time we went to see him: I think I just turned 19, our friends chipped in for my ticket as it was my birthday in that period (this year, again, 2 days before my birthday), and off we went: we took the train way too early and began queueing (here's that funny word again) at the back of the very long line. We hung around, listened to the other bands (Arid and Peter Evrard), until it was time for The Big Entrance. We pretended we saw one of our friends in front of the crowd and pushed our way to the front ("sorry! coming through! there she is, over there!"). We were so close, if he'd spat (haha), it would have hit us.
It was a great concert, and we learned that his guitar player Richie Sambora is an even better singer than him! ;-) It was such a nice day, Els even bought me a t-shirt for my birthday there (I wonder if it would still fit me this year...), we had the best of times AND found seating on the train back!
So this year, I hope she'll join me for even more "ambiance", although I was shocked by the ticket prices: the best places (standing) are 100€, the best places sitting down are €85. I think I'll start saving for the €85's (who the hell would pay extra to NOT get a chair?) - what the hell, he's like the 29th of february: only comes around once every 4 years.

you're damn right, why pay more for less chair (or no chair at all!!)
but chair or no chair, we sure had some fun. it is a lot of money but I'm looking forward to say once again " excuseer pardon, wij zijn op weg naar jovi bon!"
