Bon Jovi Adds O2 Dates Supported By Kid Rock

LONDON (VIP NEWS) — Bon Jovi has added two more dates to its June 2010 residency at the London O2 Arena.

Kid Rock has signed up as support act for the additional June 25 and June 26 shows at the venue. The AEG Live-promoted residency currently runs to 13 dates between June 7 and June 26.

"London is staging one of the great rock 'n' roll shows, night after night this summer," said AEG Live president of international touring Rob Hallett, promoter for the residency, in a statement.

"There are very few bands in the world that can sell out this many dates at one venue and we haven't stopped yet. As a promoter, you listen to the fans and if the demand is there, you can do something as big of this. We've been listening and it's a deafening roar out there."

The venue has a 23,000 capacity although many rock and pop shows are configured at around 17,000.
