Bon Jovi reschedules concerts after Tico Torres surgery

Maybe Bon Jovi should have renamed this tour the Murphy's Law Tour...

The Because We Can Tour was scheduled to resume in Mexico City on September 10, but the band was forced to cancel when Tico Torres had an emergency appendectomy. New dates for this concert, as well as scheduled shows in Santiago, Chile and Bueno Aires, Argentina have been announced on BonJovi.com.

Jon Bon Jovi issued the following statement on the website:

Greetings from Mexico City.

Last night Tico Torres underwent an emergency appendectomy. Thankfully, the operation was a success and Tico is now recovering in the care of his doctors at the American British Cowdray Hospital. We’d like to thank the doctors, nurses and all the hospital staff who helped our friend through this difficult time.

We’ll remain here with Tico in Mexico City and will see him through his release. David and I spent the day with him at the hospital and Tico sends his thanks for all of your thoughts and prayers. He wants everyone to know that it was his desire to perform. He even promised the doctors he would come back for the surgery right after the show but the doctors prevailed.

We know many of you make great efforts and travel from around the world to see us on tour. It remains our desire to give you the best that we have every night. We are sorry for any inconvenience this sudden change of plans may have caused. We’ll re-schedule any dates that we can and will continue the tour through December. Check BonJovi.com for tour updates.

On behalf of the band, I’d like to thank all of you who support us throughout these challenges.

See you soon. - JBJ

Phil X sent his best wishes when the concert was first postponed:

so bummed about tonight's show being cancelled & sending super healing vibes to Tico.

And it's been nearly impossible to get Richie Sambora to acknowledge Bon Jovi over the past five months, but he did send out a couple of tweets for Tico, too:

All my love, prayers and heart goes out to my brother Tico. He is an amazing man, a true warrior, great artist and underestimated musician.

— Richie Sambora (@TheRealSambora) September 11, 2013

God bless you bro....no matter what I'm with you inside your heart. Forever man...

These Days, Sat Night, Always, Dry County, Roses in Bueno Aires

I don't know if I can say "Bon Jovi loves Argentina" given they kind of ignored the country for 15 years, but I think I can quite safely say the band put on a hell of a show in Bueno Aires on October 3, 2010.

THESE DAYS - Maybe it's just shock from the killer set, but I think this could well be the best performance of "These Days" that has occurred since I became a diehard fan. And by the sounds of it, one of the best crowd performances too! Jon also changed the lyric from "I guess she's trying to be James Dean" to "She was trying to be like me".


SOMEDAY I'LL BE SATURDAY NIGHT - I love those "ad libs".


ALWAYS


DRY COUNTY


BED OF ROSES

Bueno Aires set list

I just about fell over when I saw this. "Always", "Blaze", "Dry County", "Superman" (which seemed to have fallen off the radar), "Raise Your Hands", "These Days", "Saturday Night", "Roses" and a superencore. I haven't forgotten the way they gave up on The Circle but still, this set goes to show that when Bon Jovi want to turn it on, they really can. ;)

Bon Jovi to play Argentina + Follow Jovi Bits!

Bon Jovi will have a date with Argentina in October:

October 3, 2010 - Bueno Aires, Argentina - Estadio Monumental Antonio Vespucio Liberti (River Plate Stadium)

This from BonJovi.com:

Exclusive presales for Banco Frances clients starts on August 20th by Ticketek system, phone # 5237 7200 or by internet www.ticketek.com.ar, official box offices and other retail outlets around the Country. Sales for public in general start on August 27th at the same retail outlets.

Been a long time coming, so it's great that South America is finally getting to see the band again. :)

In other announcements, one of our own, JoviBecky has a blog called Jovi Bits... and she'd love it if you checked it out and became a follower. Just click on the image below before August 20, and leave her a comment to let her know Lee-Ann (@lilkenobi) sent you. ;) Don't forget to follow the blog (there's a widget on the left hand side of the page).



And yes, there's obviously potentially something for me in this, but I try to help the Jovi commmunity regardless. :)

Meanwhile BonJovi.com has posted a video of "Let It Rock" from the O2 arena as part of its Bon Jovi themed weeks but it's the same vid that was released in June. Not that it isn't a good performance. ;)
