Many classic acts of the ’60s and ’70s retire have retired, and music industry has given way to what we call the new generation of hip-hops. Today, there is hardly an old rock band that continues to maintain their fan base. When such old musicians get on stage, they are met by an unenthusiastic empty crowd, which has made the record companies wonder.
However, in the midst of this changing music environment there are few bands like Bon Jovi, Madonna, Kenny Chesney, Tim McGraw and Dave Matthews Band who still continue to draw crowds and still more that avenues have been shifted to bigger accommodating outdoor stadiums.
Ron VanDeVeen, associate general manager of the Meadowlands Sports Complex in East Rutherford, N.J. reasons:
His mind is always turning. He thinks like the customer. He knows the specifics of every deal down to the last dime.
Some say it is his low price ticket, and some attribute it to their high profile charity work and energetic live performances. So then, what is it?
True this could spark an interest in the band, but for me I can only attribute the reason to the quality music that the band produces in every album every song of theirs. People go to a concert to hear good music they have either seen or heard in MTV and not only to see good noble souls just because the tickets are affordable.
Bon Jovi rocks and will do so forever more!
