Last week tickets for Bon Jovi’s Forever tour went on sale. And they were selling so much that shows had to keep being added. However, with Ticketmaster’s dynamic pricing and long queues, success was mixed for fans.

Hardcore Jovi fans Michele Bloom, Chantel Griffin and Jerry Braden all join Evan to debrief on their ticket buying experience and the overall fan reaction, sharing a mix of anticipation, excitement, but some dismay.

Also, with Bon Jovi as popular as ever, but no current fan club, the fans wonder how the fanbase can regain that sense of community that initially brought them together. What would it take? Who’s going to run it? 

Plus, have these fans ever bought Bon Jovi tickets from a scalper? And what are they most looking forward to this upcoming Bon Jovi tour?

With a fan summit on the level of the World Economic Forum, this episode is a must listen for hardcover music lovers who want to stay connected to their fellow fans and the band that they love – FOREVER!

Evan takes you behind the scenes at the Bon Jovi: Forever (Legendary Edition) album preview at the iHeartRadio Theater. While phones were locked away, hear how the event played out as 104.3’s Valentine in the Morning interviewed Jon Bon Jovi for a revealing sit-down filled with stories, humor, and admiration for today’s artists. From chatting about seeing the  new Bruce Springsteen movie with Bruce Springsteen to countless JBJ rest stop jokes, Evan recaps how some of the experience felt like watching YouTube (or being in the studio) with Jon Bon Jovi. Jon also heaps a lot of praises on the artists who join him on the record, including Lainey Wilson, Marcus King’s soulful verse, and the strings arrangement by David Campbell in “Seeds.”

Plus, Evan closes with thoughts on the Yankees’ season after being eliminated by the Toronto Blue Jays. What are the next steps? How can the Yankees get better? Evan has some ideas!

Evan celebrates the arrival of new old [or old new] music from Bon Jovi & Jack’s Mannequin. Bon Jovi is re-releasing their album Forever, but featuring duets with such legends as Bruce Springsteen, Jelly Roll, Joe Elliot, Robbie Williams and Avril Lavigne! Jack’s Mannequin is celebrating 20 years since the release of Everything in Transit with a new “Strings Attached” EP. It’s Bon Jovi with friends and Jack’s Mannequin with violins! What stands out to Evan? Was he all in on both projects? How does Evan compare Andrew McMahon to Richie Sambora? All that and Evan breaks down the new Bon Jovi single “Red, White and Jersey.” No, this isn’t Matt Pinfield or Carson Daly, it’s a comedian, albeit musical comedian, talking rock / pop / adult contemporary!
