Jon also participated
of a "Tribute To Arnold Schwarzenegger" in October.
The show was transmitted to the USA only. Jon was all in black and he sang
a cover from Glen Campbell called "It's Only Make Believe". Jon's
voice looked like a lot as Elvis Presley singing. It was amazing!
Jon's new album
solo is ready to go. It will be called "Sex Sells", according to
himself, and it will be out in June/1999. One of the new songs is "Older".
You can listen to it clicking below:
October was
a very very special month to all of us, Bon Jovi fans. The band got together
again!!! Yeah! The Bon Jovi Official Fan Club promoted a party called Sunfest
Rockotber. SOme lucky fans went to Planet Hollywood, in Fort Lauderdale, and
saw a special appearance from Jon, Richie, Tico and Hugh. Dave couldn't be
there since he had some appointments. The show in Planet Hollywood was a blast!
A dream which every fan would like to be in. The set list was Love For Sale,
I'll Sleep When I'm Dead, Keep the Faith, Someday I'll Be Saturday Night,
LET'S MAKE IT BABY, Ugly (from Destination Anywhere) and Blood on Blood. Jon
also answered questions made by the fans. Everybody from Bon Jovit was in
a very good mood, after all they were together again! On the other day, Bon
Jovi made an appearance ina ashow to celebrate a local radio station birthday.
The set list was Not Fade Away, Keep the Faith, Blood on Blood, You Give Love
a Bad Name, Someday I'll Be On Satuday Night, I'll Sleep When I'm Dead, Bad
Medicine, Wanted Dead Or Alive. At the bis, they sang a new version of Living
On Prayer. The fans are calling it "Prayer 98". Finally, I'd like
to say that "THE BOYS ARE BACK IN TOWN". Prepare yourselves!!!
On Sunfest Party,
Jon was asked when the new album will be out. He answered that they would
get together in studio in April and the BIG TOUR will begin in August. He
also said that they will play in every place where there is electricity. WOW!
Can you imagine
a rap version of Wanted Dead Or Alive? You can do it now! Richie Sambora is
helping a rap singer to record it. Let's wait and check it!
Richie's song "Hard
Times Come Easy", from Undiscovered Soul album was choosen to be the
title song for the TV Serie Melrose Place. Now, besides the Japanese television,
where Richie sings "Forever" with Takashi Sorimachi everyday, he
is all over the world singing "Hard Times Come Easy".
Richie gave
an recent interview to the European Bon Jovi Fan Club, Bon Jovi and Friends.
He was very sincere with some points. Here is its
transcript. Don't forget to visit Bon
Jovi & Friend website.
The country
singer Chris LeDoux has released a new album called One Road Man. Wait! What
does he has to do with Bon Jovi? He recorded a country version of Bang A Drum,
written and sung by Jon Bon Jovi in his first album solo Blaze OF Glory. LeDoux
loved the song since his son bought Jon's album. He asked the record company
to ask Jon if he could record it. Jon loved the idea. He helped LeDoux and
sang with him! Isn't it wonderful? Jon is so nice singing with Cris LeDoux.
Also, Jon made a very special appearence in the video clip. You cant' miss
it! Listen to a small parto of this great song. Thanks Jon and LeDoux for
this wonderful song.
