Classic rock fans of all ages have grown up with John Mellencamp's "Jack & Diane," Tommy and Gina from Bon Jovi's "Livin' on a Prayer" and Billy Joe and Bobby Sue from the Steve Miller Band's "Take the Money and Run."
Every self-respecting Bon Jovi fan knows all about steel horses and the story of Tommy and Gina, but the history of New Jersey's most impressively coiffed rockers contains a lot more than that.
Tight pants, big hair, and dry ice were all over MTV in the '80s, and Bon Jovi's video for the band's first big single, 1984's 'Runaway,' is no exception.
So there has been a petition that JACK FM start playing Bon Jovi again. We don't take request though... and a petition is kind of like a request... so we decided that we will kind of play Bon Jovi. We found this video enjoying the wonders of the internet...
So we almost got a Bon Jovi tribute band to come out to the Beach Bash...but they said no when we told them they were only coming so we could boo them off stage.
