Bon Jovi gave out discounted concert tickets to his cash-strapped fans for the 2013 Because We Can world tour.

Said gigs will showcase the latest tracks from the band’s newest album, What About Now, which is set to be released in spring of 2013. Bon Jovi’s kind gesture resulted from the $160 to $640 expenses of his fans just to watch The Rolling Stones for their 50th anniversary dates at London’s o2 Arena.

According to Rob Hallet, Bon Jovi’s UK tour promoter, their industry will survive if they will move away from the elitist image of high prices and even higher secondary prices. He said that rock and roll was and should always be the music of everyone.

Bon Jovi has been playing for 30 years now, at over 2,700 concerts in 50 different countries with 35 million people paying to watch their shows.
