KTUL News Channel 8

Tulsa, OK - Bon Jovi has announced that their 2010-2011 “The Circle World Tour,” will arrive at BOK Center in Tulsa on April 13th, 2010. The GRAMMY Award-winning band will spend much of the next two years on the road, performing 135 shows in 30 countries.

Tickets go on sale Monday, November 16th at 10:00AM and can be purchased at the BOK Center Box Office and all Tickets.com outlets, on Tickets.com, charge by phone at 1-866-7-BOK-CTR or online at www.bokcenter.com. Tickets are subject to applicable service charges and event time and date are subject to change. Log on to www.bonjovi.com for the most up to date concert and ticket on-sale information.

With the grounds of New Meadowlands Stadium as their backdrop, the band’s Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora, David Bryan and Tico Torres announced their two-year global trek with an exclusive performance for a group of more than 5,000 lucky contest winners, fan club members, and on-site construction workers currently building the venue. Following in the footsteps of their hugely successful “Lost Highway Tour—Billboard’s #1 top-grossing tour of 2008—Bon Jovi will draw fans around the world into The Circle, with a residency at London’s O2 Arena in June 2010 before returning to America in the fall for an additional nationwide leg, and further dates well into 2011.

The November 10th release of the GRAMMY Award winning band’s new album, The Circle, and subsequent world tour, provides a powerful reassertion of Bon Jovi’s commitment to the hard-hitting rock & roll that has been the band’s indelible signature since it began more than 26 years ago.

Tickets on sale for Tulsa Janet Jackson show

Tickets will go on sale at today at 10:00 a.m. for Janet Jackson’s upcoming show at Tulsa’s BOK Center.

The sale date is set to go on as planned despite news that Jackson was hospitalized Monday night in Montreal, said Casey Sparks, sales and marketing director for the BOK Center, in an e-mail.

Sparks said to their knowledge, Jackson’s illness will not affect her Oct. 26 concert at the BOK Center.

The Associated Press is reporting that the pop star was hospitalized Monday after she became ill shortly before a concert.

The AP cites a statement from W&W Public Relations stating that Jackson canceled Monday’s show after she “got suddenly ill during” her sound check. She was rushed to a hospital just before show time.

The statement says that Jackson hopes to reschedule the show but gives no other information on her sickness, according to the AP, which also noted that attempts to contact her representatives for more information were unsuccessful.

Jackson, 42, launched her “Rock Witchu Tour” Sept. 10 in Vancouver, B.C.

Her Oct. 26 show will be her first Oklahoma performance in 18 years, according to the BOK Center.

Saturday will be the third sale date the venue has set for the Tulsa show; the previous two were canceled before tickets went on sale.

According to a release from the BOK Center, the previous promoter for Jackson, Ja-Tail Enterprises LLC, was unable to come to an agreement with the artist management. SMG, the company that manages the BOK Center, and promoter Live Nation worked together to save the show and bring it to Tulsa, according to the release.

“Live Nation is the No. 1 concert provider in the world and is a true partner to the BOK Center. This date would not be happening if they (Live Nation) did not come to the table and save the show,” Jerry Goldman, the BOK Center’s assistant general manager, said in the release.

Ticket prices are $125, $75, $55 and $35 for reserved seats. A reserved four-pack of tickets will be $99, and special VIP packages are set at $250.

Tickets will be available starting Saturday by phone at (866) 726-5287; online at www.bokcenter.com, www.tickets.com and www.livenation.com; and in person at area Reasor’s and Homeland stores and the Arby’s Box Office.
