"Quite simply a mirror image of the man himself"
"Have you seen this guy he looks so much like Jon Bon Jovi it's freaky man" – Chad Kroeger (Nickelback)
“The best tribute I've ever seen” – JON BON JOVI
---
Tony has been performing the music of Bon Jovi for nearly 20 years now and the band were the first to be asked to perform on the US New Jersey tribute album, “Garden State of Mind”. He is the only UK Bon Jovi tribute band frontman to actually be asked to appear on Channel 4’s Big Breakfast show with the real Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora.
They were told by BBC Radio 1 DJ and TV personality, Chris Evans, that “they were the best tribute band he had ever seen” and were also asked to appear live on Chris’s show. The band has a significant fan base not to mention Tony's various TV and film appearance’s, including ITVs International Stars and their Doubles hosted by Dale Winton, BBCs Doctors series and British film Kinky Boots.
Tony attended several Bon Jovi shows himself and was actually mobbed when he was mistaken for the real Jon Bon Jovi by hundreds of screaming Bon Jovi fans and official photographers asking for autographs and pictures.
Chad Kroeger, frontman with Bon Jovi’s guest band Nickelback, even picked Tony from the forty thousand strong crowd and said, "Have you seen this guy he looks so much like Jon Bon Jovi it's freaky man" then had his own photographer take pictures of him!
As a result, Tony has been the topic of conversation on the official Bon Jovi website... an honour that no other Bon Jovi tribute band frontman has ever gained.
On Monday 13th November 2006, Tony and the band received the ultimate accolade when they were requested by Bon Jovi to perform live at the Hard Rock Cafe in London for the celebrations surrounding Bon Jovi’s induction into the UK Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. During this performance Jon Bon Jovi himself joined Tony and the band on the stage and performed the song ‘Who says you can’t go home’ to the delight of the sell-out ‘Backstage with Jon Bon Jovi’ fan club audience of die-hard fans. Another amazing honour that no other Bon Jovi tribute band has ever received.
Following this, Tony was then later asked by Coty Prestige to fly to Barcelona and appear as Jon Bon Jovi to help promote the Jon Bon Jovi/Kenneth Cole fragrance 'R.S.V.P'. Jon and Kenneth invited 500 guests to a star-studded R.S.V.P. charity event earlier that year and raised over 1 million dollars.
Touring all over the world, (every major city & town in the UK, the Channel Islands, Malta, Holland, Spain, Ireland, and the very first Bon Jovi tribute to tour the Middle East to name but a few!) the band have seen many sell out shows in a great many venues and theatres. With wild reactions from the crowds and with a full tour schedule, the boys are no strangers to living the rock n roll dream!
So if you enjoy Bon Jovi stadium rock, The BJE are the world’s VERY best tribute and are definitely a band not to be missed – catch them at a club or theatre near you…
