I guess EVERYTHING boils down to the fact John Bongiovi was never there for THE MUSIC. He was always there for the music...but only as a secondary to take him to sell out the stadiums / get gold records /go touring / buying football team. But not solely for the music.

He was never there for the music but was there for the music but not solely for the music?

I often wonder this myself. They are like two different people. Was it all just an act all along (I don't think it was..?), or did he really change that much?

I think they are mad doing it, it’ll be the same old people anyway.

As for Jerry, a couple of years ago it was all BSB obsession then suddenly it was back to Jovi. Would love to know the back story on why he suddenly switched back and has never spoken of BSB again

Maybe a restraining order? Although judging by the things people are saying on here, it might be strictly business for the guy. Who knows.

Can you imagine the terrible press if somebody died on that cruise?

He has a restraining order from one of the BSB members. True story.

Wow, I did not expect that to be the reason. It’ll be Jon next, haha

I can’t believe they have sold Miami as well as they have, for all the differences the same old cost makes zero sense.

I’m currently reading a book on the 80s LA Rock music scene Nothing But A Good Time and it’s quite clear Jon is a businessman. They way he refused to relinquish his half in the Skid Row deal (Richie just turned round and said I already have more money than I know what to do with so you can take me off the contract) and also the band Trixter were struggling with their 2nd album and he offered them a slot on the KTF tour....for £100k which they didn’t have so couldn’t do it.
He loved telling Skid Row I own you whenever things got heated on the road.

What he is doing with these cruises is just selling to the bored housewives that workshop him. Look at most of the replies to Matt, 90% of them are women who think Jon’s cute. He knows this and plays to it. They’ll buy all the tacky memorabilia on the boat and pay $$$$ for anything Jon related.

The cruises have nothing to do with Jon Bon Jovi the artist it’s all about Jon Bon Jovi the businessman. The set will be half covers and Jon on autopilot. He’s on and off the boat in a few hours.

I do wonder if Jon knows what he is getting involved in when it comes to Jelly. He clearly doesn’t know about the restraining order otherwise why would you touch anyone like that with a bargepole?
