About Me

Tagline
No Wigs, No Backing Tracks, 100 % Live Tribute to Bon Jovi.
Me, Myself, and I
You have reached the profile page of BAD NAME, an Edinburgh based BON JOVI tribute band playing all over the UK.

Playing all the classic Jovi tracks from the early days of "Runaway" to "We Werent Born To Follow" from Bon jovi`s new album scheduled for release November 2009.

The band members are:
Ross Kyne - Lead vocals
Gav Buckley - Lead guitar and backing vocals
Wayne Hamilton - Keyboards and backing vocals
Grant Dilworth - Bass Guitar and Backing Vocals
David Simpson - Drums

Unlike some Jovi tribute acts we don't wear silly party/cabaret wigs (although shades and cowboy hats are worn 'cos they are cool!) ; it's all about the music. We strive to recreate the Jovi live sound which has seen them regarded as one of the greatest live bands with a career spanning over 25 years that doesn't show any signs of slowing up!

Thanks for taking the time to have a look!
