DETROIT (CBS Detroit) They may give love a bad name, but rockers Bon Jovi are hoping fans give them nothing but love as they hit Detroit for their "Bon Jovi Because We Can" tour.

Kicking off in North America, the tour makes its way to arenas and stadiums from coast to coast, including Detroit's own Ford Field on Thursday, July 18. Tickets for the show will go on sale early next year, with details to come.

Ensuring that there is truly something for every fan, Bon Jovi is offering a wide range of ticket options for the show, starting at $19.50 (plus service charges).

"We're thrilled to be hosting Bon Jovi at Ford Field in 2013," said Tom Lewand, president of Ford Field and the Detroit Lions. "It was important to provide flexible ticket options for this show…and with seats starting at just $19.50, Bon Jovi fans in Detroit will be able to see one of the greatest original rock bands of our time at an affordable price."

The group's return to the road in 2013 will launch the latest chapter in an ongoing blockbuster run which has already secured Bon Jovi's status as the essential live rock band – having performed more than 2,700 concerts in over 50 countries for more than 35 million fans.
