I was pretty sure he was referring to the These Days era. These two points as well as the idea that the songs from These Days are hardly played live, made me wonder what Jon and the band think about that era. I mean with grunge at it's all time high then, I cannot recall a time when Jovi where farther away from what was mainstream and hip. Has anyone heard any comments from the band about this or have any interesting insight?
In Polish TV when someone describe Bon Jovi they said that they were huge in 80s in 90 their have breake and their back with huge hit in 2000. I listen it very often.

I think that in next some years they will says "Bon Jovi back with huge hit in 2000 and some years later they started play even Country music which make they get their first Grammy and back on the top in USA".

90 was good for us (we like songs) but ciritics weren't too happy, BJ played often on areas not stadiums, there was onlly few popular songs and, selling weren't as good as in 80s.
