    Did anybody hear that they might team up again (like in 2010) for some of the stadium shows?

TM is selling front row tickets for Bon Jovi's Ford Field show in July.... right now... for 3500.00 for 2 tickets.
I have front row for Seger's show in Toledo on 3/1... 2 tickets, 500.00 (no, they're not for sale...).
The Bon Jovi package includes not only the 2 front row tix, but a concert chair, (all per person), Limited Edition autographed print, preshow VIP party with booze and buffet, preferred parking (where available--it was at the Palace, not sure about Ford Field), one gift, tour program, laminate with lanyard, and preshow prizes/giveaways.
Comments?

Yep I'm quite aware of the Jovi prices. Nobody really wants all the other stuff, just the seats. Have been there and done that. Front row at a stadium show is not really good unless you want to strain your neck.

However I somehow don't think BJ will fill Ford Field. Thinking this might be replay of 2010 when they played together at Soldier Field and the other summer stadium shows.

Just not me....Snoop and Kid ya and of course if Kid got back with Hand Jr. I would sell a kidney and hitch hike accross the Country. Eric Clapton and Kid yep....If I remember right and trust me it ain't easy but my memory tells me some of ZZ Top was on stage with him in Malibu. I was posted at the bar but could still the stage. I wish we could have seen em in NYC at the small venue. Missed it by that much....I went to Times Square like a week late. Pass on Orange Beach in Winter place was dead as heck and the entire town was empty. Def not Sweet Home! LOL. Kid forgot the words to a couple old songs and was readin em off a teleprompter. Or he was high as hell but at least he admitted it later on that night. Did have a swank huge oceanfront condo with a full size cuzzie on the balcony overlooking the Gulf. Late night delight.

Then if i was Kid i wouldn't do it. If it was nothing short of co-headlining....HE can headline his own shows & not take every $ his fans have in their pockets.. THE thing Bon Jovi doesn't seem to get is you leave a few dollars in their pocket for the next time you come to town & you give them a kick ass show so they will pay that next time to see you!

SIMPLE economics. Or maybe mafiaso style of thinking. Leave them enough to bleed them later. You treat them right and they will pay again and again.

Have not heard that. Used to give lotsa money to Bon Jovi...now I have been supporting the 'local talent' with my dollars- Kid Rock and Seger.
Many things turned me off about Bon Jovi, some perhaps fickle...only one show in Detroit for 'The Circle' tour...then told their Detroit followers to hoof it to Chicago if they wanted to see a 2nd show...outrageous VIP/ ticket pricing as Ajay mentioned...and politics....sorry--no can do.

NO. Not too crazy about that notion due to the fact that Bon Jovi hits your wallet hard! Would love to see both and see them together, co-headlining. THAT would be excellent! Haven't seen Bon Jovi since 89' and wanted to see them this tour....still may! Keep watching tickets @ Scott Trade Center. Surcharge @ Scott if you buy there is only $3 as opposed to ticketmasters nearly $20 a ticket is way better...

Jovi is pricey but Soldier Field in 2010 was amazing! Had pit seats for both shows. Don't imagine they would co-headline. The Ford Field announcement by Bon Jovi has many people thinking....
