LONELY


BANG A DRUM


NEVER SAY DIE


BILLY GET YOUR GUNS


Cheers to Deb308 for the videos.

I have no idea if Jon's ever read anything I've written anywhere on the web, but if by chance he's come across a healthy sample of it, he might have realised that I'm not always particularly complimentary of my favourite band's front man. For the fan club gig, I thought he might throw out a few crumbs to appease some of the rumblings that emerged after the ticket prices and sales arrangements were announced. And by crumbs, I was thinking one of two solo tracks at best. I sure as hell did not expect a set like this. Thanks Jon. You've brought a smile to many a Joviac and it's very much appreciated.

JBJ & Friends at Starland (videos)

Videos from the February 23 Backstage gig at Starland Ballroom in Sayreville, New Jersey. Featuring Jon Bon Jovi, Everett Bradley, and the Asbury Jukes minus Southside Johnny. (Have I missed anyone?)

The full set can be found here. It may not have been Bon Jovi the band, but to experience these songs must have been an incredible treat for those in attendance. And Jon seems very relaxed.

I don't normally embed so many videos in one post but this is, in all likelihood, a once in a lifetime kind of show. I'm still pinching myself.
