One of the concert events of the summer is only a week away in Edmonton.
Commonwealth Stadium will host two of the biggest names in rock music when Bon Jovi and Kid Rock tear up the stage next Thursday.
Bon Jovi has become known for writing several rock anthems, and achieved widespread recognition with their third album Slippery When Wet, released in 1986. Bon Jovi is well known for songs like Livin’ on a Prayer, which has become its signature song, as well as You Give Love a Bad Name, Wanted Dead or Alive, It’s My Life, and Have a Nice Day.
Singer-songwriter and rapper Kid Rock has notched five Grammy Award nominations. Some of his best-known albums are Devil Without a Cause, The History Of Rock, Live Trucker and Rock N Roll Jesus.
