Organisers were forced to evacuate a Bon Jovi concert last Saturday after a hoaxer called in a bomb threat.

The audience at the Bank Atlantic Centre in Sunrise, Florida had to leave the stadium so bomb sniffer dogs could be brought in.

After checking the venue, the concert was allowed to proceed but ended three hours late.

Oscar-winning filmmaker Barbara Kopple is currently making a documentary about the group's tour.

Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora was arrested last month for driving under the influence.
