Full Version: Bon Jovi announce new Wembley Stadium Date

Tickets on sale now.

Bon Jovi have booked another date to play at the newly built Wembley Stadium when it is finished.

The band were already scheduled to be the first band to play at the re-opened venue, but now are going to play one day earlier as well as the already booked and sold-out date of June 11.

Although there was clear demand for the additional date, adding an earlier show has upset some fans who hoped to go to the first ever gig at the new Wembley.

Organisers AEG defended the move, with Lives Senior Vice-President Rob Hallet explaining:

"I am sorry if anybody is disappointed who bought a ticket for the 11th simply to be at the new stadium for the first show. We took the view, given the band's massive popularity, that it was better to please all their true fans that couldn't get tickets than disappoint a tiny minority who just wanted to be able to say they had been to the first show at Wembley."

Tickets for the June 10th concert went on sale at 9 a.m. today. Fans can call the 24-Hour hotline on 0870 405 0448 or buy online at www.aeglive.co.uk to obtain tickets.

The full schedule for Bon Jovi's Have A Nice Day UK Tour reads:

June 3rd 2006 - Hampden Park Stadium, Glasgow

June 4th 2006 - City of Manchester Stadium, Manchester

June 7th 2006 - Ricoh Arena, Coventry

June 9th 2006 - The Friends Provident St Mary’s Stadium, Southampton SOLD OUT

June 10th 2006 – Wembley Stadium, London ADDED DATE

June 11th 2006 - Wembley Stadium, London SOLD OUT

Does anyone know if the stadium will definitely be ready in time for the show?

I have tickets for the 10th, but I went past the stadium the other day and it still looks a million miles from being finished, and the fact that they moved the FA cup final to Cardiff isn't exactly calming my nerves...

Any help would be appreciated.

Apparently all gigs have been cancelled in the summer, as the stadium won't be ready till next year
