For the Kiwi's!! Radio Hauraki Competion!
HAURAKI ALBUMS OF THE WEEK - BON JOVI, BON JOVI and yep...BON JOVI
That's right my magic wee mushrooms there's not one but THREE Bon Jovi albums that you can possibly win in the next week!
SLIPPERY WHEN WET...The instant commercial smash for the band that has sold over 28 million copies world wide. The well -known album cover consists of a wet black garbage bag with the words "Slippery When Wet" traced in the water. However, originally it was to feature a busty, 34DD woman in a wet yellow tee shirt with the album name on the front of the shirt. Why was it changed? Did the band think it stereotyped women? No...Jon Bon Jovi hated the pink edging to the cover...
NEW JERSEY... New Jersey holds the record for the hard rock album to spawn the most Top 10 singles, with five singles charting on the Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 Singles Chart in United States. No other hard rock album has ever equalled or broken this feat. It was initially meant to be a double album, but this idea was rejected by the record company because they got nervous about the higher price point and decided they would only release a single album. It has achieved sales of over 15 million worldwide.
KEEP THE FAITH... In October 1991 the band went to the Caribbean island of St. Thomas to discuss plans for the future; their 'internal' problems were solved and they were ready to have a go at a comeback. 'Keep The Faith' represented "The beginning of a new chapter in the history of Bon Jovi". The album turned away from heavy drums and wild guitar solos, and introduced a new, more 'mature' sound. To date the album has sold 10 million copies worldwide.
BUT HERE'S THE ADDED BONUS!... Each album has been updated with exclusive live tracks from the era, and includes a special reproduction vintage backstage pass that unlocks access to “The Bon Jovi Vaults" (a designated area on BonJovi.com). This will give you exclusive virtual content, including photos, tour memorabilia and additional live audio tracks! Nice.
Don't forget Bon Jovi are on 'The Circle' tour that seems them play Westpac Stadium, Wellington on December 4th and Mt Smart Stadium in Auckland on December 5th. Guys...make it an early xmas for the lady in your life! You can send her off with a mate to lust after Richie Sambora and you can slob on the couch watching sports and scratching...
Not one...
...not two ...
but three BJ albums up for grabs!
Lovely little entry passes too!

China Club - Cocktail Party
The Fanclub had a cocktail party for us before the first concert, at 3PM! Free drinks and food and yup, a few giggly girls on the bus heading to the show!!
Better late than never?
Yes, I know, im terrible, life has just been so busy since we got back and honestly not had much of a chance to do any updates. Then with all the new concerts being announced and stressful ticket sales etc, its been pretty busy. And on top of that, having two boys back at home thinking they have continuous internet connection and eat up all our allocated gigabytes for each month, I can bare to even start trying to upload any pics because it just drives me insane.
But, alas, duh, think about it sunshine. Work!! What else is it good for? Well, maybe doing some uploads in your lunch breaks etc, so thought I would give it a go. so lets see what pics I can find from the thousands, and I mean thousands of scenery shots and of course concert shots. They will have to be in no particular order as I havn't had time to really go thru them all but here some anyway.
This is the New Meadowlands Stadium, Concert #1

Me and Mr Obie Obrien. We had a great long chat and he was ever so helpful talking to me about my sons career as a Sound Engineer etc. Really appreciated that Obie would spend the time chatting with me about that and other things as well. He also told me that the Greatist Hits will have a mixture of live and pre recorded songs and that they are recording every concert they are doing. Every concert! So they will have some major archives to choose from I guess in a few years too.
Ohh take me back, you girls, i sooo miss you and we had sooo much fun!!
Guess what song this was in, lol, you die hards should know.....
