Actually, one of the reasons I don't play as much anymore is actually kind of like this. It takes away a bit of the ''magic'' for me - sometimes I hear a tune, think it would be fun to play, look up the tabs and think ''Oh..it's a simple G,C D song..meh..'' and learn a riff or two then quickly lose interest.
Obviously if I had a band to jam with I would probably be happy to play with it more, but on their own, Bon Jovi songs aren't actually that interesting to play - bar a few obvious exceptions and their solos.

Oh, and I'd obviously love to be able to burst out ''Homebound train'' on my guitar, but I think I'd probably have a stroke.
The ''guitar'' on WAN is a snorefest, nothing interesting on there at all and I would have no desire to learn any of that.

"Sambora's face is a mask of joyous disbelief, as if previously unaware of his ability to play the instrument at all. Reaching the last fistful of notes, he does a fair impression of a man who is actually ejaculating into his jet black flares."
