Default Another stupid question from me.

Hi!
I've got a question:
WHAT DOES "August 7" means?

That's for sure that i don't like Jons solo albums, so i never listen to it intently. I have these albums, but it's only for my collection. But today i saw the advertising of company called "August, 7" that's why i ask you this question. Please help let me know what does it mean 'cause now i understand that it's not only the date.
Thank you very much.

August 7th, 4:15 was about the unresolved murder of the daughter of a friend of Jons. I assume the song in question and the company you saw is totally unrelated, as the case wasn't that world-known, so to name a company over a little girls murder is not in the best taste.

It was written by Jon in 1996 or 1997 about the unresolved murder of 6 year old Katherine Korzillious, daughter of Paul Korzillious, who works for Bon Jovi management and has done for many, many years. Very sad.

Yes, Jon's freind's daughter is who the song was about. She was only 7 years old and she was killed
