Yeah but that was Jon at his peak, in 2017 this means we'll have another get up off your knees/because we can/we're stronger together blablabla type of song.

you're gonna get that regardless...

I'm actually okay with Jon writing about news events and what's going on in the world... I don't agree with mixing politics and even his philanthropy... If he did that with a solo band or something outside of Bon Jovi I'd be more accepting of it but news events are okay...

However, he said in an interview that he got inspiration for THINFS from a newspaper and I think most are satisfied with the end result... It all just depends on how it's done... If it's subtle and not overexposed, it could work just fine. Working Man was just too cliche', overexposed, and simple...

I caught that too... Sounds like it could be somewhat interesting and outside the box. It's probably just tour dates... but then why wouldn't Jon say that considering he's talking about the tour anyway (ie live songs they've been rehearsing, etc)

He made it sound like something exciting is going to be announced. Maybe he actually did get word that they are in the RARHOF but just have to wait for the official go ahead before they could announce it???

I wonder if the songs are free too? Doesn't sound like a big money maker.

Btw. I thought that this was one of the most humble and sincere appearances I've ever seen from Jon.

But that was before the orange pig took over the White House... I wouldn't mind a Bon Jovi song ripping in to that piece of human garbage

I second this. Looking forward to the two new BJ songs "Dump Trump" & "Preach & Impeach".

You know what would be cool? Small venues where they can play songs like Hey God and Dry County to people who actually want to hear them.

I still dream of seeing Bon Jovi at the Ryman in Nashville one day.

A good live chat from a relaxed Jon, but somewhat a bumer as I really believed some dates would be released along with it. Can't believe they are still holding on to them.

That would be awesome!!

I loved it during the THINFS tour when they had the screens saying "Resist" and "Great Again" during We Don't Run. That was ****ing awesome

Dump Trump would be a great title for an album
