I travelled to paris to see the Stones on the Voodoo lounge tour with a mate of mine, who was a big Bon jovi fan, as they were supporting.
I was telling my mate, that when we got on the coach, he was gonna be the odd one out, as it would be full of Stones fans, and was generally taking the piss out of him.
anyway, when we got on the coach a Watford Gap, the majority of the bus was clearly made up of Bon jovi fans, I was in the minority being a Stones fan which felt a bit weird.
anyhoo, we went to the gig, got to the front, and watched the show, thought Bon jovi were not bad, and can't recall any booing from where I was. However when the Stones came on, the heaven's opened, which I thought was fantastic as it added to the 'voodoo' experience.
got back on the bus and asked everyone what they thought and most of the people on the bus said they really enjoyed Bon jovi, but only watched a few Stones songs and the retreated to the safety of the bus. cripes!!!
Good gig though, had a blast.
