Concerts: Bon Jovi, All-American Rejects, Julian Casablancas




Way too often, bands label something a world tour because they bop into Canada for a few days, and maybe play a couple European dates.

Bon Jovi gives these bands a New Jersey sneer.

The 1980s rock group will head out for a two-year-long arena tour that will hit 135 cities total in 30 countries. Who knew that Bon Jovi was still a big draw in 29 other countries? Or 30 countries, for that matter? Not me, friend. Not me.

Tickets for his Seattle show go on sale this weekend, with a goofy presale starting Thursday. Here are the specifics on that, from Ticketmaster:

"Consumers that preorder Bon Jovi's new album, 'The Circle,' through Ticketmaster can purchase up to eight presale tickets. When viewing tickets during the presale timeframe, if you wish to purchase them, one digital album will be added to your ticket order for a price of $10.84 (includes applicable sales tax). This offer ... does not apply to VIP tickets."

And hey, whoa, hold up — where'd that Julian Casablancas show come from? Tickets are already on sale for the solo Seattle date from the Strokes frontman, who will be supporting his album “Phrazes for the Young” (don't worry, the songs are better than the title). Crazy.
