Regarding the Bon Jovi contest for an opening band, let me say that for the city of Regina the ONLY choice is Orbital Express. I have seen their show many times (and will go to all the rest as they come up)- they are IT. This is a band of four guys, in their early twenties, that have such an old school flavor – showing respect for bands like Zepplin, Deep Purple, Hendrix, not to mention some of the best blues ever heard. The lyrics are fun, the songs easy to get into with a fist in the air, and one can FEEL thier passion/love for what they do which makes an important connection to the crowds. Their CD is on regular rotation in my players, and believe me I have a large collection to choose from (it takes a great album to be on my rotation). They have a strong, loyal, local following, they have a great stage show, and a great MC (also very funny guy). I’m telling you, as a Bon Jovi fan since the age of 8 (that’s 24 years ago, people), this band will be a smart choice to open the show in Regina. To not choose them would risk changing my opinion on what Bon Jovi is about…
