After 30 years of hits, Bon Jovi finally makes it to China

"It is too good to be true" was Wang Guan's first reaction on hearing Jon Bon Jovi and his band will make their China debut at the Mercedes-Benz Arena in Shanghai on Sept 14.

The venue, where the US lead singer of his namesake band will perform, can hold up to 18,000 people.

As for Wang, a 33-year-old Beijing native who has been listening to the band since he was 12, now is the time to get excited.
