Bon Jovi's 2011 dates come fresh off the heels of the band earning the
top-grossing worldwide tour of 2010, according to both Billboard and
Pollstar, an honor achieved for the second time in just three
years. The band will perform concerts in the U.S., Canada and throughout
Europe, presented by AEG Live. Globally, the Grammy Award-winning band
has sold more than 125 million albums, and performed more than 2,700
concerts in over 50 countries for more than 35 million fans. Bon Jovi
Greatest Hits (Island Def Jam Music Group) debuted at #1 around the
world in November, with the band's three-decade-spanning retrospective
charting higher and selling more copies in its first week than their
1994 Cross Road release, which has sold more than 21 million
copies to date. Previously, the band's "Lost Highway Tour" was named the
#1 tour of 2008. Nearing three decades of an incredible career, Bon Jovi
shows no sign of slowing down.
