Advertising Fail

Is this ad halfway there or living on a prayer?

I took this picture primarily so I could zoom in and see just what this aerial advertising banner said, but it seemed nice enough to post.
For those who can't tell from the shot, it says "Bon Jovi - Circle Tour Kickoff! Fri" (I can't read the rest, but the Circle Tour hits Seattle's Key Arena on Friday).
Reminds me of seeing the banners flying over the Atlantic City, N.J., beaches when I was a kid. And, come to think of it, New Jersey reminds me of Bon Jovi.
Still, I think the small type is a bit of an advertising fail. Of course, that got me to take a picture, which I'm posting now, so maybe it's fiendishly clever.
