Default Why I am done...

- Jon is pimping out himself and his music

- Jon sneaks up on people without having a deep understanding on what a person with his or her life and own story means to write insulting songs

- Jon can turn on his empathatic switch but it is only a switch

- The Jon Bon Jovi Soul Foundation told a friend of mine working at Soul Kitchen to delete me and other friends who are in any way related to Bon Jovi as fans I contacted them and wanted an answer but of course they did not write back.

- His dad is pimping out his sauce
When I went to Soul Kitchen I talked to Lou (the manager) because he told me he was interested in something I do voluntary work for) There I met Mr Jon Bongiovi Senior and he did not even say 'Hello' but asked me straight away if we have got a Walmart in Germany so that he could sell his sauce. I reseached stuff for him and sent them emails but did not get an answer. But he seems very open and nice, if you come up with a check

- When I met Jon's wife at Soul Kitchen she was very closed up, friendly but closed up quite the opposite to all the people who work there.
I have been sending chocolate to the Soul Kitchen because I really like the people there and everybody I met there (apart from the Bongiovis) were extremely nice and warm. When I asked Dorothea if she got some of the chocolate as well she was like:'oh no no no, I was in the Hamptons at that time... Maybe she is an introvert but her reaction was more like 'do not talk to me' because she went straight to a regular guest there to have a big extroverted show talk.
There are lots of comments about the Soul Kitchen and how Jon and Dorothea are the most loveliest people there are in the world
Well my experience tells me that from the 20 times I have been there Dorothea was there ONCE and not approachable at all
Edit: Yes it was my ignorance...that I expected someone - in this case Dorothea - to treat me the same way she treats others...that is what I do but I cannot project that into others....my mistake

And to be honest, I am glad I never met Jon there

- Jon Bon Jovi reads fan boards to get ideas for his songs, FANS might like that I do not

You can only do what's right for you. When it comes down to it, it's entertainment. There's a reason most people don't get too invested in the people they listen to on the radio or watch on our screens. If we really "knew" them, we probably wouldn't like most of them. We certainly shouldn't put any of them up on a pedestal.

Well yes and no! For many of the Bon Jovi fans, Jon is their god. For me Jon lives his own ideology and HE wants everybody to get invested and HE uses it. He likes that and he has too much money and this is were it gets dangerous.

And I can not like someones music if I know he as a person is fake.

And you know EVERY artist in your music collection on a personal level?

Strange post. Seems you are done with the Soul Kitchen more than you are the band.

I am not entirely surprised that the "family" is somewhat entitled and douchy, but sounds like you have some beef with them because they did not behave exactly how you wanted them to. They at least seemed to be polite.

I am done with the band, but for musical and taste reasons. Ask yourself, are you in the Soul Kitchen because of your affinity to Bon Jovi? If so, you were probably there for the wrong reasons.

Jon Bon Jovi reads message boards for ideas for songs? Wait, wh, what? He should read harder if that's the case because he has been pissing off a significant portion of the fanbase for some time with his songs.

Well, at first I was curious if the Soul Kitchen was fake (only propaganda) then I realised how welcomeing they all are. I did not go there because I liked Bon Jovi. The first time I was there, yes but all the other times I came back because of the people who work there.
I did not go there so that anybody could say: 'Oh, HOW AWESOME what she is doing' It is not my personality. But when somebody, no matter if it is some famous politician, some CEO or my cleaning lady. asks me straight away about how to sell his product of course I get pissed. I do not care if it is the Bongiovis, some priest, someone from this board or my neighbour.

No, I do not. But most of the people dont wear a halo around their head and get publicity for being some kind of humanitarian god.
Bon Jovi has become a cult.

She doesn't and you are right, but Jon uses her every chance he gets for his publicity.

Wow! You sound way to investested for your own good. Probably healthy for you to have some time off from the Bongiovis.
