He still had another summer to go though, before 'the Grey Summer'. And that gig was spontaneous. The place is a bar, they were hanging out there and when they found out Lemmy was there too, they decided to play. They are playing the club band's instruments as well and only did 2 songs. Only naturally, Jon was having a couple of beers.

It's so 80's. Jon never really had that cliché 80's vibe going on during that period. I mean a little cause of the times and more so earlier on but not during those times. I do see it more with Richie though.
It's almost like Jon was getting over it and ready for the next step while all those 80's bands just kept embracing it.

That's more you interpreting stuff into a silly little performance. If Sebastian is lacking something, it's the brains. If he has too much of something, it's blonde hair (apologies to all the blondes who might feel insulted). You two are not related by any chance? He had everything else. What you term 'cliche 80s vibe' are typica ROCK moves. Certainly people like Steven Tyler and Brian Johnson had them plenty, they have no problem selling out stadiums today though. But let's stop this conversation here before it ends up with severe name-calling and stuff. It's a youtube clip of an improvised rendition of a Led Zeppelin song, performed by three quite different generations of musicians, yet all relevant at that point in time. They were having a blast. If you can tell what a great visionary Jon Bon Bon is from that clip, kudos to you.
