Default Driftaway question

I like BJ covering Driftaway , I thought they first began singing this cover in 93....

Im sitting here listening to bon jovi cincinnati gig 87 and driftaway is on it guess BJ covered it much early..... or driftaway has somehow got on the 87 audio

87 Driftaway sounds great ,.....

Anyone know when Driftaway was first covered ?

Dawn

I'm not sure when they first covered it, but they did sing it on the Slippery tour.

eta: I love the Cincinnati show. It was broadcast on American radio and I still remember sitting in my bedroom recording it on my stereo . . a long, long time ago. *blush*

Woah man, you made out you were old so I went to glance at your age and saw 94 and didn't realise that was posts. I shat myself.

I think the first time it was played was at The Gaumont, Ipswich, UK on 9th November 1986. At least that is the first recording I have....

Well that's no where near 94 so that's good

And if that's you in your sig then you're damn hot and young looking for 36!
