Which music do you prefer?
I am a big Bon Jovi fan myself.

Belair · 02-06-2005, 01:32 PM

I like them both.Aerosmith is great,as is Bon Jovi,but i guess i like more of Bon Jovi's songs,than i do Aerosmith.

ABlairican Pie · 02-06-2005, 02:06 PM

Bon Jovi's great, but I'm gonna have to go with Aerosmith. They got some great bad-ass blues going on. The basis for rock and roll is the blues, the heart and soul of American music.

The great thing about Bon Jovi is that they opened the door for manstream acceptance of metal. Jon Bon Jovi is a very friendly, down-to-earth guy

I like both Bon Jovi and Aerosmith, but out of the two I guess I perfer Aerosmith. Up until Aerosmith all the best hard rock bands-Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones, The Who, Black Sabbath-were all British. Aerosmith proved that Americans could rock too.

I have to disagree with Captain ABlairica about Bon Jovi opening the door for "mainstream acceptance" of metal, I think that credit should go to Def Leppard.

Excellent point.

Pyromania was a monster.
Bon Jovi followed later with their own monster, Slippery When Wet.

That being said, I prefer Aerosmith, more for their '70s work though.

Hard to choose.

Bon Jovi "Slippery when Wet" is just great. (Livin' On A Prayer is my favorite song)

Aerosmith has so many timeless songs that are classic. (My favorites- Dream On, Dude Looks Like A Lady, Train Kept A Rollin'...more...)

I like Aerosmith better I think.

Dean Winchester · 02-06-2005, 04:55 PM

Aerosmith is the better band, but personally I'd go for Bon Jovi, at least pre-90's BJ

Kay Scarpetta · 02-06-2005, 05:25 PM

I love both, but I'll have to say Bon Jovi. 'Slippery When Wet' is simply a masterpiece.

RustyShackleford · 02-06-2005, 06:08 PM

I like both, but Aerosmith has energy and catchy songs

TheGreatPretender · 02-06-2005, 09:02 PM

Aerosmith I prefer but then againg I haven't heard that many Bon Jovi songs.

dandelion wine · 02-06-2005, 10:09 PM

I'm a fan of both but yeah, gotta go with Aerosmith.

theanswerman · 02-06-2005, 10:12 PM

bon jovi

MariposaLKB · 02-07-2005, 08:29 AM

Bon Jovi, especially "It's My Life" hee hee!

I thought Aerosmith was fantastic when I was growing up in the 70's, and I looooove the song from "Armageddon"! But I kinda lost interest in hard rock in college (huge Bowie fan then). I do agree they showed a thing or two to the British rockers, though LOL!

Pitooey · 02-07-2005, 10:09 AM

This is a hard one but I choose... AEROSMITH...............

Steve M. · 02-11-2005, 03:31 PM
