Hair transplants? really? When did that happen? I don't recall any time period in which his hair was thinning to require such a procedure.

Bon Jovi - Diamond Ring - San Antonio - Oct 15...

I imagined, this song lost a lot of romanticism without Richie. David and Bobby do what they can, but not is enough.

Won't say I didn't miss Richie's vocals, but nice performance. Would take this song at one of my shows any day.

I had actually written a similar statement and then thought "Jon haters gonna hate regardless" so I didn't bother to post it. But I'm glad someone did. As for the hair plugs, why would Jon waste his money if he wasn't going to get them in front, where his hairline is receding big time?

I am not among Jon haters. Not at all. It always struck me as odd that post Crush he suddenly started appearing to be the same height as Richie and David in the band promo pictures and now even onstage pics. Do a quick google search and you will find out what I mean. From 1984 till These Days, Jon is noticably shorter than his taller bandmates. Starting from Bounce era, he suddenly gained 4-5 inches. Find a promo pic post Crush where he doesn't look the same height as Richie and David. It is a hard job I tell you.

Jon has undeniable, immense talent. But as we have seen, he is not immune to human weaknesses. His sense of self-importance, insincere and fake mannerisms have been very evident for the past 10 years.

Because he got them when it wasn't receding as much over there. Once you've been close in the pit it becomes obvious during rainy shows, and you start to see how he's trying to cover it up by pasting his hair over his bald spot.

It was very obvious during the Crush Tour too when he started wearing bandanas and hats onstage after his hair became a sweaty mess. I think one can see this in the Crush Tour DVD. In the Destination Anywhere video / movie, you can see his receded hairline during the beach scenes. Compare it with the Bounce or HAND era and you will see a miraculous difference.

Hair transplants are done in a way so that they appear to be natural. That is why the "receding" hairline is not touched up to make it look like an 18 years old kid's. So when Jon and Gene Simmons say that "it's all mine", technically speaking, they are not lying. Hair transplants use one's own hair.

Guess I was lumping you in with the "Jon is an evil dictator" gang. I think Tico is the only one he was ever truly taller than, (and now Bobby?) so he's probably doing the lifts in the shoes thing.
