Absolutely terrible. Lead singer couldn't sing. We lasted 20 minutes and left when the 4th song was a Brian Adams song.
There is no way this singer would be able to sing any of John Bon Jovi s ballads. Musicians accompanying probably playing live but who knows. Might have put me off going to another cover band for life.

This was a fun tour. The ushers were young, energetic, and gave a lot of random facts. The theater was absolutely beautiful and my favorite part was the organ!
