Default Bon Jovi´s opinion about alternative rock

I would like to know what´s Jon´s and Richie´s opinion about bands like Red Hot Chilli Peppers or Foo Fighters...Chili Peppers has also 20 years of road (like BJ) and still survives strong...Here in Brazil, the Pepper´s songs are played much more often than Bon Jovi´s...Why that??

i can't speak for the band but that their music taste doesn't impress me much anymore

you have quotes from jon saying he'd love to have been as cool as steve tyler for half as long... or that SSJ/Bruce are the king... then the next thing.............

they are probably played much more than BJ for this reason:

while BJ are still big they've changed their sound so much to lose respect from many people (and of course Brazil has much more of a rock culture than over here in Europe, yes?!)

greece has a rock culture, too, ppl go wild at concerts (not as much as in brazil though ) and many of them like the old bon jovi , maybe until keep the faith.... bon jovi's latest stuff is considered as pop music. the critics hate them, too (but this happens everywhere around the world i guess )

I heard the lead "singer" for Limp Bizkit said he hated Richie's wife, but later apoplgized by singing (and killing) Wanted.

I read our guys like those bands.

And about By The Way getting more airplay, Peppers put out better singles from By The Way than Bon Jovi did for Bounce. That's all.
