You betcha! One of my few regrets is that I wasn't following them when Richie toured Stranger in this Town with Tico and Dave in the band. They didn't call themselves Bon Jovi or try to be Bon Jovi, if that's what you mean; but I would love to have seen them perform live.

Second to that, though would be them performing with Ollie.

(And if Dave couldn't make the trip, I'd settle for Bounce's keyboard player, too. That guy is as amazing as Ollie!)

No, I would not. It would be a tribute band, for me, even though Dave and Tico were there. No Jon and I’m done.

I’m not sure they would be essential, but I have no reason not to respect Bobby or Matt.

They cannot use the name Bon Jovi or the Bon Jovi Experience or anything like that anyway. They don’t own it and they didn’t inherit a stake if it like Jason Bonham.

I doubt anybody even thought to question why. I know I didn't.

I do not like him, Sam I am.
I do not like him worth a damn!
I would not see them with a cow,
I would not see them with a plow,
I would not see them anyhow.
Not in the rain or on a train.
Not from a fence or woods so dense.
I would not see them in a bar,
Or in a car or on a star.
I would not see them on a tram.
I do not like him, Sam I am.

If the original guys teamed up, minus Jon, and started anew, e.g. with an original name and original material I would 100% pay to see them. Imagine a Velvet Revolver type scenario, with a kick ass vocalist, that would be intriguing if nothing else.

They could call it Bon Jovi + the guy from Bounce
Of Course! But the singer's official last name's gotta be "Bongiovi" (for real). So maybe cousin or son or some other close relative would do the job nicely.
