Penn State Gets Lorenza!
From Bon Jovi's Website:
ANNOUNCING LONGTIME COLLABORATOR LORENZA PONCE AS SPECIAL GUEST IN STATE COLLEGE, PA FEBRUARY 9TH AT BRYCE JORDAN CENTER
(State College, PA – January 26, 2011) – As Bon Jovi gears up for another stellar year of performing, the band with the #1 tour of 2010 has announced that their longtime collaborator, singer/violinist Lorenza Ponce, will appear as the group’s very special guest at the 2011 tour kick off on February 9th at Bryce Jordan Center in State College, PA. As part of the extended Bon Jovi family since 2001, Ponce was featured prominently on the band’s 2007-08 Lost Highway Tour. Now, the multi-talented musician has been invited to perform opening sets with her own band at Bon Jovi’s concerts in State College, as well as Uncasville, CT on March 4th.
Ponce first performed with Bon Jovi after September 11, 2001, when she was called upon to support the band members at 9/11 events including the Tribute to Heroes Telethon and the historic Concert for New York. Ponce subsequently became a permanent member of Jon Bon Jovi’s solo acoustic group, and was then asked to join Bon Jovi’s Lost Highway Tour as well as their MTV Unplugged performance. In addition to her work with Bon Jovi, Ponce has toured the world and played alongside such notable acts as The Dixie Chicks, Sheryl Crow, Ray LaMontagne and Dolly Parton.
Now, can we please announce all the rest of the openers? Really, they should be set when the tickets go on sale so we know what we're getting ahead of time...

I agree. I would know who will be support on Germany...
No kidding. In Toronto we get Alpha Rev...no clue who they even are! On a side note, I'm listening to that Deliah show online and Jon just confirmed he's doing that movie. Looking forward to it!
did he say anything else of note?
i was stuck at work.
Anon - I only heard the last 20 minutes or so as I got home later than intended. He gave the usual responses, i.e. his marriage has been successful because he's away so much, etc. Deliah asked him to share something about himself that most people don't know and he didn't have anything for her - said so much about him is already known that there's really not much left to share. If I have time later I may go to deliah.com and see if there's a way to listen to her past interviews...I'm curious as to what the rest of it was.
