Nope, he wouldn't. It would be just the 4 members that are technically still aprt of the band.

It'd be the five of them. Jon's been asked about this and has confirmed Alec would be inducted as well. It's kinda sad though considering Huey has played more gigs than Alec has and has played on more records than Alec has as well. Though Huey doesn't come across as part of the band due to his studio musician look he's been part of the Bon Jovi camp way longer than people know. I think there's some information in regards to Alec nobody knows, because there has to be a reason why Jon is so protective of Alec yet Alec pretty much can't stand Jon.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

I wouldn't stand for it, Eric with a K. Is this the first time you and your boyfriend have disagreed?! (no offence - I'm joking)

They'd have to include Alec. It doesn't take a brain surgeon to work out that he helped shape the band they were in the 80s and early 90s. As the band matured he didn't. But he was still integral.

Theoretically, yes.

When Alice Cooper was inducted, the original Alice Cooper band where there.

But yea, Bon Jovi have to be inducted first.

Alec sees Jon as a suck up, a sell out, one who'd sell his soul to get attention or get a couple of bucks. Besides Alec obviously being totally right, he's also a bit of a clueless Republican which makes his opinion slightly irrelevant.

Thanks for that info. So Jon knows that and doesnt mind? How about the other band members, what do they think of it?

Wow, you must be such good friends with Alec to come up with what he thinks about Jon! When was the last time you spoke to Alec? I'm impressed.
And don't go mentioning an interview that he did nearly 20 years ago.

It's common knowledge in the music industry. Just because neither Jon or Alec have ever publicly spoke about how they really feel about eachother doesn't mean the stories don't come out. The man doesn't like Jon, and Jon certainly doesn't like Alec. There's a rule between them to no longer badmouth eachother in public but everyone knows they can't stand eachother anymore. Alec always was very dfferent compared to Jon.

And as for how the other guys feel about this, I really don't know. It's obvious they're still at odds with eachother considering how they never spoke again but frankly I doubt Jon would ever speak to any of the guys again would they not be in Bon Jovi. They're just his employees and all parties are mostly satisfied with their work environment, despite all of the band wishing the band would go a different route than the one it's going now.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

So youre saying no brotherhood between Jon and his bandmates compared to say, Steven Tyler, to Joe Perry and others?

Jon is just the CEO and tell others what to do, period?
