Jon was dubbed Captain Kidd by the UK magazine Kerrang! due to his wearing an American flag cape, sunglasses, and a captain's hat. It stuck, but it wasn't the brainchild of anyone in the Bon Jovi camp. King of Swing... that's got some sordid sexual story to it that was addressed in an issue of Playboy in 1980-something. I don't recall the details. If no one else can answer off the top of their head, I'll try to find the article. But I'd rather not... so someone else answer, please! LOL
