Bon Jovi to play Fenway this summer . . . if the economy holds out

Talk about burying the lead. In an interview with Billboard devoted to Bon Jovi's near-proximity to the DeKalb shootings, Jon Bon mentions in an aside that his band's current tour does not yet have a final date planned:

"I've got two choices," Bon Jovi says. "We've got the Giants, Soldiers, Fenways (stadiums) on hold or we stay in Europe because of the state of the economy. All these (arena) shows are sold out, but the July dates, I'm not sure where the economy's going to be, so I don't know yet."

Let's get this straight: if the economy is still tanking in July, Bon Jovi will NOT play Fenway? Great. As if we didn't hate Bon Jovi enough, now he's got us rooting for a recession.
