Who will play one of the biggest Irish gigs of 2013, headlining Slane Castle?

This morning the rumour mill was in full force, now though, we know who it’s going to be – and if you guessed Bon Jovi, you were more than ‘halfway there…’ 

The ‘Livin’ On A Prayer’ rockers will headline the legendary venue on June 15th next year as part of their ‘Because We Can’ tour. 

Tickets will set you back €79.50 and will go on sale Thursday 8th November 2012 at 8am. 

The Rolling Stones were the most widespread rumour before this morning’s announcement, so Stones fans may well be disappointed with the news – but we can think of a few good reasons to head to head along to this one. So crank up the volume, and enjoy some cheesy rock with our top five Bon Jovi tunes… maybe wear headphones if you’re in the office though, not everyone’s a fan…
