Keep the Faith takes you
back to the 80s
Family Paint Night takes place Oct. 11.
Getting creative at Latcham
Bon Jovi tribute band, Keep the Faith,
is set to perform at Markham Theatre for
one night on Oct. 19 at 8 p.m.
Show organizers say the band provides
you with the unequivocal live concert
performance you come to expect from a Bon
Jovi tribute.
Every note, every move, and every detail
have been carefully crafted and choreographed
to deliver you the ultimate Bon Jovi
experience, say show organizers.
While family-friendly, this high energy,
intensely interactive journey will take you
back to the 80s and 90s with the big Bon
Jovi radio hits such as Wanted Dead or
Alive, Livin’ on a Prayer, It’s My Life and
Always to name a few.
This show is for the diehards too so
don’t be surprised if you hear a few rare Jovi
songs as well as covers that are performed at
a Bon Jovi concert like Hallelujah and Old
Time Rock n Roll.
So be ready to join Keep The Faith for
an amazing ride you will be talking about
for a long time to come. The group has
performed over 600 shows and keeps getting
better.
