Anyone out there still like BonJovi?

[Lorix2]

I knew it! I said that to my friend that I bet they'd hang out after the show at Mohegan. I was SO dissappointed that I couldn't make it.

I said before too that they deserve much more credit than they get and don't forget they did originate the "unplugged" with "Wanted Dead or Alive" and all bands dared to do it after them - not all successfully either

I thought the band Eve 6 who opened for them at Tweeter in Mansfield was really reallly good. It's nice to know that BonJovi help bands get their first "breaks".

Every time I see this picture (or any that are similar) this is what I think Richie is saying to the person who took the picture "Hi, I'd like you to meet my mother Cher."!!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

I love all their Cd's! And Bounce is just another great one to add to their crown!!

Sncbird-
I love the song 'Bounce'!! It's a great song that tells it like it is!!!
"Call it Karma. Call it luck. Me I just don't give a FFFFFFFF! Bounce, Bouce!!"

I missed out on listening to Bon Jovi when they were first popular. But I loved the song Living on a Prayer - which I heard for the first time at Jellyrolls during DIS-CON! I bought their greatest hits CD, and for several months that's all I played in the car!

 

[Lorix2]

LOL!

I have the VHS "Access All Areas" with Bon Jovi and Cher is backstage with the band after their homecoming to Giant Stadium, she looked awesome. Ever see this? Every Jovi fan has to see it. They were so young then, back in the 80's. Very cool to see them playing with Elton John, Lita Ford, can't remember who else, but I watch it alone so I won't miss a thing!

 

[Lorix2]

NancyIL - what a song...it rings true for so many people.

BonJovi got me thru some very very tough times and that song will be burned in my memory forever.

 

[Bunchkin]

Better late than never Nancy!!!!
Welcome to the club!!!

And here's a Welcoming Picture for you!!

 

[disfanatiks]

I use to just love looking at Jon Bon Jovi.

Me, too!!

The first time I saw them was in the early 80's. They were the opening act for Cinderella...Can you believe that??? And people were booing them off of the stage.

I liked Jon and his voice the first time I saw him....

I like to see him in the small parts he has had in movies....

And I always admired him when he didn't care want anyone said and went home and married his high school sweetheart!!!!

Working on a second generation of Bon Jovi fans here DS asked for the Bounce CD last Christmas. We play it in the van on the way to school in the mornings. Before that it was the Greatest Hits. (I really love Bed of Roses) I remember playing Living on a Prayer over and over when he was a baby, maybe that had something to do with it

As a Steeler fan, I also get a kick out of Jon BonJovi's intense dislike of the Dallas Cowboys. I once read an interview where he asked how the heck they got to be America's team. He wanted to know if we took a vote and he missed it!

I also agree about how young Jon looks. Even my kids swear he can't be past his 20's.

Bunchkin..........You are bringing back some really BAD memories with that picture of Ritchie with Cher!!! EEEEEEEWWWWWW....... My friends use to send me pictues out of the tabloids through the mail just to make crazy!!! You're second picture you posted Welcoming Nancy is much improved!!! Speaking of Living on a Prayer.........I recommended that song for our best friends to use at their Wedding for them to walk into as they announced the Bridal Party at the reception and..........They did it!!! The intro to that song is a classic!!!

Hey Bunchkin.........I just noticed the Tag Fairies were very kind to you!!! I LOVE all your BonJovi graphics!!!

 

[MOMTOMOOTOO]

Lorix2- Yeah we are in Monmouth County and I always hear of the vipor sightings, however, I've never seen it. The night I did see him, he was coming out of Banana Republic and I just about melted, he was so so cute. We were face to face and I just smiled. I have alot of Bruce sightings under my belt, him I've even had a conversation with! But thats another thread!!

 

[Bunchkin]

sncbird-
Sorry to freak you out with that DISGUSTING photo!!
I hate all pictures with Richie & Cher together!!
Gag me with a spoon!!!

The tag faries were very nice to me!! They colorized me!! And gave me the last line in my tag. The Bounce quote is all me!!!
And I just recently figured how to add pictures and graphics.

To make amends to my bad picture here is a better one. Original members and all that 80's BIG hair too:

 

[sncbird]

Oh that's OK Bunchkin, I know he's over Cher. Although, Heather Locklear is even tougher competition, I can handle him being with her. I think his taste has also improved with age!!!

Oh my goodness, that's a much better picture!! I can eat my dinner now!! LOL!!! I also had that hairstyle in the 80's!!! Long, permy hair - with lots of hairspray!!

I Love that Bounce quote!! It's one of my favorite lines!!!

 

[Bunchkin]

Yeah I had that hair too! Long, permed, moussed and hair sprayed!!

 

[disneydave2003]

I love Bon Jovi I'm glad they're back!!!!!!!!

dave

 

[Bunchkin]

Dave...Dude....where have you been???.....They were never gone!!!!

 

[sncbird]

ROFL!!!! I do have to admit, they kinda lost me in during songs like "Thank you for loving me" Timeframe. I think Bounce is a much better CD than their last one!!

 

[disfanatiks]

They were never gone!!!!

EEK!!! I think that we were the ones that were gone!!! We were gone growing older and Jon still looks the same...

 

[Bunchkin]

Crush, the last CD, is good it just didn't get the air play and I think there were only 2 videos made. And it was the first CD they did after a 5 year break.
They also started using computers, Mac's, for the first time on that CD.
Bounce is a better CD!! I agree!

And how did they stay so young looking while I've started showing my age!!

"Not old......JUST OLDER!!"

 

[PammyK]

Was that Bon Jovi sighting of yours at The Grove?

 

[J&D]

My sister is at their concert in Houston tonight. We could have gone, but I have bus duty tomorrow morning at 6:45.
