Anyway I got to see them! The story goes as follows:
Missy and Kerri = Biggest Bon Jovi fans ever. They bought tickets a long time ago for the show. 14th row.
Day of Show:
My mom calls..."Would you like to go to Bon Jovi tonight?"
Me: "Of course. Aren't they sold out though?"
Mom: "Missy and Kerri might be getting pit tickets. We can have theirs if they get them."
Me: "Oh. My. Gosh!!! Yes!!! Lets do it"
Mom: "Its not final yet. I will keep you updated"
an hour later I get a text....
"We are going!!!!!!!!!!!! Be here at 3!!!"
Sooooo after being back in Cedar Falls for only 15 hours, I drive all the way back home for the show.
The Show:
I really can not explain how amazing it was. They put on probably the best concert/show I have ever been too. It was amazing beyond belief. I have never seen a sold out crowd like that before. It was amazing to witness from the floor.
Song list (that I can remember) Not in order:
Livin On A Prayer
You Give Love A Bad Name
It's My Life
Have A Nice Day
Wanted Dead or Alive
Bad Medicine
We Weren't Born to Follow
I'll Be There For You
Lay Your Hands On Me
Run Away
Someday I'll Be Saturday Night
Lost Highway
Bed of Roses
Make A Memory
Who Says You Can't Go Home
Old Time Rock & Roll
I know I am missing some (KENZIE HELP ME OUT! WHAT SONGS AM I MISSING?!). They played 2 1/2 hours. With no break or opening act. A-maz-ig.
I really hope that they continue making music. For like another 20 years so that I can take my daughter or son to see them. They are the definition of rock gods in my book.
I am definitely glad I got to see them with my mom. It made it all that much better.
It was so cool to see all the men that were there rockin out just as hard as the women.
Get ready for a picture overloaddddd:
This is the closest I got to Richie Sambora. All the best of luck to him in rehab.
So apparently there was a dude working in the office behind this picture. I did not realize this until after I took it. He probably thought I was flipping him off. I'm always so classy.
14th Row, baby!
6th row in the pit when he was on the main stage. 1st row when he was out on the little circle thingy. Lucky, lucky girls.
I would just like to point out his....
Bed of Roses was/is the sexiest song I have EVER seen/heard performed. Oh. My. Gosh.
"You can keep your Justin Bieber and your Minaji whatever the hell her name is. Plug in some AC/DC and lets go!" - Jon Bon Jovi. Priceless!!
This song has been my anthem since the day it hit the air. The first strum of the guitar and tears started to form in my eyes. The second Jon started singing, I lost it. This is all I got of the song.

Glad you got to go and spend time with your mama, and have fun. That's all that really matters in this world anyway.
Love you, S!
