[dropcap]T[/dropcap]HEY look alike and sound alike to the point that they have their own legion of fans across the world. The only difference is that they are not biologically the New Jersey glam rockers.
Bon Giovi, considered the world’s top (and official) tribute band of Bon Jovi will be playing a live concert on December 9 at the Indira Gandhi Stadium in Kohima.
They are incredibly authentic in their sound, musical artistry, and performance - not to mention looks. The rock group is not the New Jersey stars’ number-one tribute band for nothing. For more than 13 years now, they have rocked stadia across the entire UK. On December 8, they will be belting out some of the biggest hits of Bon Jovi.
The official tribute band has performed for Bon Jovi fans in the Middle East all the way to Austria, The Netherlands to Germany, Belgium to Spain, and now, India, too. Now, they will be turning up the heat in chilly Kohima on December 9 at 5:00 PM.
The organizers of the Hornbill Music Festival, Nagaland Outdoors Club & Sky Entertainment have expressed excitement in bringing Bon Giovi. The rock group, with touring experience of more than a decade now, will be travelling all the way from the UK to perform for Bon Jovi rock fans in the region as part of the ongoing Hornbill Music festival.
To call Bon Giovi ‘authentic’ would be an understatement. In fact, they were the only UK tribute act to that made an appearance on Bon Jovi’s New Jersey tribute album “Garden State of Mind Vol. 1.”
Bon Giovi is Andrea Ojano as Jon Bon Jovi, Dean Harris as Ritchie Sambora, Wayne Harris as Davis Bryan, James Wright as Tico Torres, and Tony Clark as Hugh McDonald. They are loud, loud and hard rocking and the organizers have no doubt that their live concert will be a no frills, just-hard-rock fun. Tickets are priced from Rs. 200 onwards and can be had at the venue itself.
Even more, Mumbai’s fiery rock group, Koniac Net, will be opening for Bon Giovi. Koniac Net has been touring and working on original works since 2012. They released their EP in February this year that was quickly lapped up by more than 100 radio stations across 31 countries. Their indi output has found rave reviews in Europe. Koniac Net is David Abraham on the vocals, Jason D’Souza on guitars and vocals, Aaron Dmello on guitars, Adil Kurwa on bass guitars, and Karun Kannampilly on the drums.
