He looks like Carmela Soprano.

His solo album was really underrated.

Jon's? Do you mean Blaze of Glory? Ritchie Sambora did a great one too. Stranger in this town.

RubySunset82 · 22/11/2023 06:54

Has to be Always. Saw him I think around 2000/2001 in Cardiff.

GoingOffOnATangent · 22/11/2023 06:58

I heard he's done a Xmas single! Not listened yet though, anyone else?
Livin on a prayer for me. 😍
Only seen him live once, about ten years ago in MCR, was disappointing as they didn't do any of their original big hits. Still good though

Neversaygoodbye · 22/11/2023 07:35

Haha I've found my people! Life long fan, love Runaway but I think it's obvious which is my favourite song. Always was one of our wedding songs and my husband bought us golden circle tickets for Hyde Park 2003, it was amazing (not really his music but he thought they were great live). I'm really sad that his voice seems to have suffered.

Pammy28 · 22/11/2023 09:58

Still a bit of a looker eh?

romany4 · 22/11/2023 10:56

I love Bon Jovi.
I remember buying Slippery when wet at 14. Though it's always been Richie for me. Gorgeous man

TommyandGina · 22/11/2023 11:37

I think my user name gives away the fact that I'm a big fan.

Oh?? That's very interesting, thanks for the update! I mean in my minds ear/eye can it top "Please come home for Christmas"? 🔥

Also that's a downer that they didn't play all the big hits at the gig you were at, I'm glad you still had a graet night but that would have really pissed me off

Yes you have! That's sad about his voice, he always (pardon the pun!) had such a distinctive one..

I love that that was your wedding song, what a lovely memory

@Scorchio84 We also had "Thank you for loving me" at our wedding - I'm a sucker for a rock ballad.

I still have my suede fringed jacket bought from Carnaby street up in the loft but sadly seem to have parted ways with my denim jacket which had the group badges sewn on! Yep I'm that 50+ woman still dreaming of her teenage years and all the long haired rockers - Sebastian Bach, Joey Tempest but JBJ has aged beautifully!

Scorchio84 · 22/11/2023 19:41

@Neversaygoodbye this is getting better!!! My sister & her friends are the ones who got me totally into rock, they were a bit older & had all the posters, the merchandise, homemade or otherwise & I am thankful to all of them so much, what a glorious period of rock music!

My god sebastian Bach had beautiful hair & cheekbones!

Sebastian wins for me because his voice is so incredible. But I had a life-size poster of Jon on my bedroom wall as a teenager. I'm the Slippery era.

NooNakedJacuzziness · 22/11/2023 19:59

I loved BJ when I was younger. If you want a laugh though look up the video for She Don't Know Me - soooo bad 😆

Scorchio84 · 22/11/2023 20:13

@zurala A life sized poster?!!! Wow! I probably wouldn't have left my room 😍I loved Slippery too.. (again thanks to my sister) Sebastian Bach really did have an amazing voice though

Oh God, Sebastian Bach was beautiful. I am a sad old lady still in love with all the long haired lovelies of my youth. Paul Stanley, Nikki Six, Vince Neil.....
And now, I'm the saddo who has a massive crush on Dan Vasc, a metal vocalist on YouTube whose the same age as my oldest son😳

Imreallytiredandanxioustoday · 24/11/2023 15:24

Seb Bach was beautiful. I loved him when I was a teenager.
The new singer with skid row is fantastic if anyone gets a chance to see them.

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

Waves at @Valerianandfoxglovesoup - we were at the same concert! Ours were not corporate tickets, and thus not close up, but still amazing.

Totallybannanas · 27/04/2024 14:00

Has anyone watched the Bon Jovi story in Disney! Honestly he is so handsome 😍 wish I could go back to that era.

I just saw that advertised this morning! will definitely watch it…exciting!

Totallybannanas · 27/04/2024 14:44

I think he looks good in every era. Even now i still would! I am only in E2 which was a bit emotional 😭. Music was so much better back then.
