The band, led by rocker Jon Bon Jovi, are playing four exclusive gigs in October in New Jersey, London, New York and Toronto, to promote their new album after a three-year absence.

But fans can only watch the concerts by buying package tickets from promoters Runaway Tours priced at $1,545 per person.

The ticket packages include a meet and greet with the band, a welcome cocktail party and and autographed photo.

But fans are angry as they want the opportunity to just buy single tickets at a reasonable price.
