The Bon Jovi Experience are the world's first and finest tribute to the great Bon Jovi and are the world's ONLY tribute to have been requested by and to have performed live on stage with Jon Bon Jovi himself they are also the only tribute to have been featured on the official Bon Jovi website.
The BJE features Jon Bon Jovi clone frontman Tony (Jon) but unlike many other tributes the great musicians accompanying him are also top look-alikes, Ed ( Richie Sambora) – Guitars, Jon(Tico Torres) – Drums, Steve (Hugh McDonald) – Bass and Steve (Dave Bryan) – Keyboards. Individually and as a band they produce the looks and sounds of the real thing so closely that:
We quote:
“The best tribute I've ever seen” – JON BON JOVI.
Tony has been performing the music of Bon Jovi for nearly 20 years now and the band were the first to be asked to perform on the US New Jersey tribute album, “Garden State of Mind”. He is the only UK Bon Jovi tribute band frontman to actually be asked to appear on Channel 4’s Big Breakfast show with the real Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora.
They were told by BBC Radio 1 DJ and TV personality, Chris Evans, that “they were the best tribute band he had ever seen” and were also asked to appear live on Chris’s show. The band has a significant fan base not to mention Tony's various TV and film appearances, including ITVs International Stars and their Doubles hosted by Dale Winton, BBCs Doctors series and British film Kinky Boots.
Tony attended a number of Bon Jovi shows himself and was actually mobbed when he was mistaken for the real Jon Bon Jovi by hundreds of screaming Bon Jovi fans and official photographer’s asking for autographs and pictures.
Chad Kroeger, frontman with Bon Jovi’s guest band Nickelback, even picked Tony from the forty thousand strong crowd and said, i quote, “have you seen this guy he’s that much like Jon bon Jovi its freaky man” then had his own photographer take pictures of him!
As a result Tony has been the topic of conversation on the official Bon Jovi website… an honour that no other Bon Jovi tribute band frontman has ever gained.
Then, on Monday 13th November 2006, Tony and the band received the ultimate accolade when they were requested by Bon Jovi to perform live at the Hard Rock Cafe in London for the celebrations surrounding Bon Jovi’s induction into the UK Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. During this performance Jon Bon Jovi himself joined Tony and the band on the stage and performed the song ‘Who says you can’t go home’ to the delight of the sell-out ‘Backstage with Jon Bon Jovi’ fan club audience of die hard fans.
So if you enjoy Bon Jovi stadium rock The BJE are the World's VERY best tribute and are definitely a band not to be missed so catch them at a club or theatre near you… NOW.
