Does he hold the These Days album in high regard?

Is he planning on changing his setlist at Soundwave Festival shows to include more rockier material to reflect the customer base?

What is your least favourite Bon Jovi album?

Should you go back on tour with Bon Jovi, what would be your ideal setlist?

Some fans have theorized that you haven't been as involved with the last few Bon Jovi records, in particular What About Now. If this is true, do you like the direction the band has headed? And if not, what direction would you take the band?

If there is a future for Bon Jovi, where would you like to take the band? Is there a specific sound you'd like to explore or would you feel comfortable rewriting It's My Life for the 11th time?

When We Weren't Born to Follow was released, fans were outraged by the lack of the "Sambora presence", so much so that you went back in the studio to record a solo for that song. Was it your decision, originally, not to include a solo?

You were excited about the release of Aftermath, and it was rumored that you were going to get to play a track from it on the What About Now tour. You only played one song on your short lived role on that tour and you played I'll Be There For You. What happened?

10 years ago, Bon Jovi sorted through their vault and released a box set. Do you have a vault of unreleased recorded material, and if so, roughly how many tracks and can fans ever expect to hear these songs?
These are great questions. Hope some of them will be used!

Would also be interseting to hear his view on Stranger In This Town and Undiscovered Soul today.

Please ask him regarding his voice, there has been a steady decline and I would love to know if he is getting a coach or doing something to take care of it.

Aloha !

Although most questions are pretty good, he'll dodge the Bon Jovi related questions after he's had a few of them. He's there to answer questions about his solo career, not his Bon Jovi career. And yes, I know it's connected to it, but he's not there to talk about What About Now or his absence from the tour, and he'll give you answers he's already given anyway. Some of them can be asked anyway, but make sure they'll relate to Aftermath Of The Lowdown, instead of a Bon Jovi album he didn't give a shit about.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

Excellent Questions...

How about another BOX SET? Or plans to release something to the fans for 30 years?

I'm sure he'll have no clue but worth asking

Soon as the read the OP I knew exactly the questions that would be coming

Aint no way he'll be the answering the juicy questions, and if you try to ask them I'd suggest asking them late on to avoid having a pissed off interview subject for the duration.

But it would be nice to try and tease some of his opinions about WAN and the current BJ situation but it'll probably have to be done very subtlely.

Or maybe off the record

Also, it would be quite nice to know if he views his European tour a success and whether he would continue touring here again despite the difficulties in the US tour.

Yea,I'm pretty sure he'll say that he doesn't know and that anything is possible.But just imagine how awesome it would be to hear him say something like ''Yea we are thinking of releasing a boxset with demos and outtakes from the 80s and 90s'',but this is highly unlikely since Jon thinks that the crappy songs he wrotes now are better than the ones they wrote back in the day...

I think I already told people here that a friend of a friend had a talk with O'Brien in a beach in Brasil and he said that there is a Box Set in the works and that he was insisting in having a song included but Jon didn't want it there.

This questions are important please:

When will you start to record your next solo album?

Will Orianthi participate in the recording?

Will you be back on future Bon Jovi's Albums?
