Bon Jovi

In June 1993, Bon Jovi was riding high on the success of their album "Keep the Faith," which had been released just a few months prior in March. This album marked a significant turn for the band, showcasing a more mature sound while retaining their signature rock energy. The backdrop of the live recording captures the energy of the band's performance at the Hiroshima Sun Plaza, even if lead singer Jon Bon Jovi humorously refers to the audience as 'Buffalo,' hinting at their earlier show in New York. The 1993 tour was pivotal, as it reinforced their massive popularity globally, especially in Japan, where live music has a particularly fervent audience. With hits like 'Bed of Roses' and 'I'll Sleep When I'm Dead' from "Keep the Faith," this concert highlighted Bon Jovi's resilience and adaptability in the ever-changing music landscape of the early '90s.
