AT YORKTOBERFEST
BAD MEDICINE
Bad Medicine was formed and led by lifelong Bon Jovi fan, Joe Frasca, back in 2001. One of the longest running tributes to Bon Jovi, the talented collection of musicians has over 100+ combined years of on stage experience, and has proven time and time again that they are truly the “next best thing”. In recent years, Bad Medicine has added several “non-Jovi” songs from the same genre for sets and situations that require a more diverse performance. However, Bad Medicine remains the favorite choice for Bon Jovi in Chicagoland and Nationally, and is still true to giving tribute to one of the most iconic and successful bands in history.
The band has a resume that includes high profile performances both nationally and internationally private, public, and corporate alike. Bad Medicine has also supported several national acts repeatedly. If you want to see an accurate reproduction of the Bon Jovi sound, look, feel, and energy, it’s safe to say some Bad Medicine is what you need…
