Fans Still Have 'Crush' On Bon Jovi
LOS ANGELES -- Looking back on his band's 17-year life, Jon Bon Jovi remembers the days when Bon Jovi would play at the opening of an envelope.
"There was an old Doc McGhee [the band's former manager] saying that this band will play a pay toilet and use its own change, and anywhere you have electricity, we would show up, and if you didn't have it, we'd bring it. That's how we built our reputation," the singer recalls.
And that reputation has served the band exceedingly well over the past two decades. With more than 90 million albums sold worldwide over the course of the band's career, according to the label, Bon Jovi has been working like a baby band in getting the word out about its first album in five years, "Crush."
