Yes I am with you on this. We had corporate tickets about 10 years ago in UAE, he looks and sounds the same close up. I love that he really is a good guy, no skeletons in his closet

riotlady · 30/09/2023 04:53

Yes! I’m not usually into pretty boys but he is so very pretty 😍

MrsHughesPinny · 30/09/2023 04:57

Very close, but for me it was Keep the Faith JBJ. Just a little bit before yours.

or is this peak Jon Bon Jovi?
EmmaPaella · 30/09/2023 09:21

Keep the Faith I reckon. But I think my fave is Blaze of Glory.

Phew I'm glad it's not just me (&the few glasses of wine the other night!)& yes he was beautiful in "Keep The Faith" & "Blaze of Glory" too, all hairy chest & leathers! I saw them live myself a long time agio but I was too far away to see him actually up close sadly, he looked wonderful at Wimbledon over the summer & it's safe to say he's still got it!

Definitely Keep the Faith. I'm a lifelong fan, seen then more times that I can count

Theoriginalmrscillianmurphy · 02/10/2023 17:13

I've met him a couple of times and he's a lovely chap.

Oysterbabe · 02/10/2023 17:15

He's been my crush for 30 years and counting.

Fluffycloudsfloatinginthesky · 02/10/2023 17:20

I just remember seeing them (Hyde park maybe?) and he was wearing a pair of tight gold leather trousers……

EmmaPaella · 02/10/2023 18:00

I think Always also deserves an honourable mention!

egowise · 02/10/2023 18:07

I enjoy his 'crush' era too 😀

MabelMoo23 · 02/10/2023 18:16

Love him. And I love that he’s absolutely devoted to his wife Dorothea as well

MalcolmsMiddle · 02/10/2023 18:54

Big fan of a lot of their ballads, Bed of Roses a really good one.

mangopop · 02/10/2023 20:09

It's My Life JBJ is my favourite. Probably because that's when 14 and 15 year old Phos went to see him in concert (Crush and One Wild Night tours)

fishonabicycle · 02/10/2023 20:19

We got married in the same las vegas wedding chapel as him!

sweatervest · 02/10/2023 20:20

hello 1986. i heart the BJ. (bon jovi)

Doyouthinktheyknow · 02/10/2023 20:23

It’s the Slippery when wet album era for me, JBJ and Ritchie Sambora had all the hair😍

I loved Bon Jovi so much, he’s aged very well!

Popsicle42 · 02/10/2023 20:23

My longest standing crush! Fell in love with him during the Keep the Faith era. Was the first gig I’d ever gone to. These Days is probably my peak crush.

I managed to get onstage a couple of times and he really is as beautiful close up as you would think.

AndAllOurYesterdays · 02/10/2023 20:27

His hair! His eyes! The smouldering.

Anyway, Livin on a Prayer for me

His voice on that song makes me go weak at the knees! Especially the first few lines ❤

LadyMonicaBaddingham · 02/10/2023 20:33

Saw them live on the These Days tour on the mid 90s. He is an absolutely beautiful man and close up he is unbelievable.

IrresponsiblyCertainAboutSexualDimorphism · 02/10/2023 20:36

Favourite BJ song was Runaway (I’m old…), and it was all downhill from there IMO, but Jon is very, very, pretty, has a gorgeous voice and seems like an all round great guy. Just been re-watching the West Wing and had totally forgotten his cameo.

ThePoshUns · 02/10/2023 20:38

He is gorgeous! I remember seeing him play in Bristol Ashton gate and he wore like a yellow, wet suit type outfit, sounds awful but when he came on to 'Keep the Faith' I nearly passed out

Was that the one after he’d torn his ACL and so was in a knee brace?

They came on insanely early and he was so obviously in pain but was still determined to put on a good show.
