Bon Jovi are NAMED after the lead singer. Most people think Jon's a solo artist. He co-writes everything (yeah, bar She Don't Know Me). He's front and center of the attention. Journey were originally Neal Schon's band.

Look at Dokken or Van Halen. I don't see these bands changing the namesake members anytime soon, either.
