Bon Jovi Vs. (insert band)

[mrlee]

^
You probably only like them cause their name is a GNR b side.

ill have you know, i dont worship axl rose like the people round this place do, i made one quote with his name and you use it like i say it all the time....

i like them because they play a freshened up version of sleaze, or did anyway, there now passed away singer was passionate and his lyrics were brilliant....

He didnt require desmond to come bail him out because he was unable to write a catchy single clearly like jon was and possibily still is now...

[mrlee]

EVH was only rated 70th on Rolling Stones list?

What a bunch of fuckin idiots.

your suddenly defending him after ranting about the band as being cheesy.

Wake up out of your coma and read the thread


I have always given EVH props, He is amazing and one of the best


I just think DLR is a clown, Corny and dumb with horrible vocals and lyrics for the most part.



if EVH had an amazing vocalist to start his career with, Van Halen would still be one of the biggest bands alive today.

NIN
Bon Jovi is a horrible 80s band..
crappy music and creepy hair

[Layne Staley's Sunglasses]

And Bon Jovi isn't? 

[Communist China]

And Bon Jovi isn't??

Not really, no.

[maynard]

I must admit I liked Bon Jovi till "These Days". Their carreer now is a joke, Trent still sounds fresh, vital. Bon Jovi is not more than a pop band now.

NIN for the win!

Desmond CO WROTE


U guys act like he wrote them and gave them To BJ which he didnt. They are all equal partners in it and that single happens to be probably one of the weakest songs on the new CD.

Desmond Child comes in to write their radio hits for them. that's what he is known for. you can defend that practice if you want. that's your opinion. i personally lose alot of respect for bands that do that.

Desmond Child is a disease to rock artists everywhere. This man destroys every song he touches.

they really need to release this entire show on dvd. That was Van Halen at it's absolute best.

And Bon Jovi isn't? 

Not really, no.

Uh, really, yes. 

That said, I don't like Van Halen much either. I'll give the vote to them because they didn't make "Have A Nice Day." If I ever see that kool-aid face again..



Dumbest album cover.. ever.

[Butch Français]

hmm....BJ actually!

[guns_n_motley]

Van Halen definitely.

Somebody should include a poll in this thread, I mean, to know the results....

agreed

thats the reason i first came into it lol

[MadmanDan]

  Why people over here like to bash Bon Jovi is beyond me...I also can't understand why anyone would consider NiN actually make music...

[mrlee]

well since RATT were quite a big band in the 80s associated with the same movement and had bon jovi support them ona tour.....

let the vs begin

although bon jovi maintained a successful career longer, i preffer RATTS music.

Just brilliant, stephens rough vocals mix perfectly with there riff filled songs. every track on the first 2 albums especially are dynamite! the riffs are amazing and the guitar duels are brilliant

lets try keep it with bon jovi 80s to very early 90s era so its more comparable rather than bon jovis new pop n country albums
