DAVID BRYAN will be jamming at the NYC club NA (formerly Nell's) on FRIDAY, APRIL 1st. It is open to the public. There will be 'special guests' (we don't know who they are) but no, no other members of Bon Jovi will be on site for this. This is something David is doing with his friends.

DAVID BRYAN will take part in a MASTER CLASS for VH-1's SAVE THE MUSIC on Friday, April 8th at grade school in Brooklyn. This is part of the city-wide Save The Music week and a continuation of David's longstanding relationship with the Save The Music program. This is NOT open to the public.

RICHIE SAMBORA has been officially added to the line-up of ROCKIN' THE CORPS, a live music/media event taking place on Friday, APRIL 1st at Camp Pendleton in San Diego, CA. This is a 'thank you' to military personnel for their service. Camp Pendleton is the West Coast home of the US Marine Corps. The event will feature performances by Destiny's Child, Ja Rule, Godsmack, KISS, Hootie & The Blowfish and Ted Nugent. Cedric The Entertainer is the host. Additional celebrities such as Sharon Stone, Marisa Tomei, Michelle Rodriguez and Randy Jackson will all be taking part. RICHIE SAMBORA will be doing a short acoustic set - he flew Hugh McDonald (bass,) Everett Bradley (percussion) and Lorenza Ponce (violin) to join him on stage. While ROCKIN' THE CORPS is a free event, it's open only to active military personnel and their families. The evening will be filmed for subsequent release (tv and dvd.) This is not a political event - it is patriotic and a gift to the troops at Camp Pendleton - there is no political stance involved.

It with profound sadness that the Bon Jovi organization mourns the loss of Dave Russell. Dave Russell was BON JOVI's tour manager during the BOUNCE tour and was featured in the VH-1 'Command The Band' special. A veteran of the touring industry, the rock 'n' roll world lost one of their best. He will be sorely missed.
