EXTRA Information on Bon Jovi

Bon Jovi has sold over 80 million albums since the early eighties, and with their latest album Crush set to be released on June 13, it's almost guaranteed that they will sell another few million albums once again.

Bon Jovi is a great live rock and roll band, and they proved it during their recent performance at the House of Blues. The band kicked off their world tour in Chicago, and of course they performed for a sold-out audience.They performed new songs from the new album, as well as their earlier hits.

This world tour is a short promotional tour for the new album, but the band promises they will be back in Chicago later this year for another concert. If you're a fan, keep your eyes open for more information.
