You too Kim?? Congrats!! Now Im wishing I had gotten around to writing about my first rock concert. Nothing says obsession like a Jon Bon Jovi looking right at a twelve year old during Living on a Prayer http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/laugh.gif
Hate to say it, but I went in a Bon Jovi fan and came out a Skid Row fan http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/doh.gif Talk about one of those life defining moments.

Stone River's going on a Bon Jovi field trip. Good luck with yours, and also go on the Alice 96.7 website and try to win the limo and 5 ticket contest. (If you win that one, I'll be bribing you to sit with you!!)

Wow, I haven't seen bon jovi since i was a teenager.
I remember making a big ole' banner for him. It said "Lay your hand on Me"
and we signed it my best friend and I. I was in a car accident right before the concert but was still able to go..we did our hari big fluffy with lots of hairspray, ripped jeans,low cut shirts, sparkles sprayed on us makeup and perfume..With are pack of smokes. We had plans on throwing the banner up on stage and was wanting him to pick up up and grab it. We not only signed the banner but put our phone numbers on it.living and dream that he would call..LOL We never was able to throw it up on stage. and till this day I still have the banner... Unbeleiveable.... I would love to go and take my best friend again... It would be a blast..
I remember when he got married... I cried and cried... as a teenager we all thought we could marry him... yeah right.. He ages very nicely that is for sure... My oldest daughter loves his music as much as I do.. and she has taste like her momma she thinks he is fine. I remember songs that would make me cry because of my boyfriend or didn't have one..Some of his songs always matched up with how my feelings were at that time. He was the one thing I would of loved to meet when i was a teenager. but now it would be a dream to go and see him in concert .....
Bon Jovi you are family love .................
thanks for bringing back some cool thoughts...............
and the songs i remember:
Lay your hands on me......YUMMIEEEEEEEE
Born to be my baby..... that was dedicated to me from an old boyfriend.
Living in Sin.... it was just hot...
and my most favorite song was......L'II BE THERE FOR YOU!!!!...i so loved that song....
I guess the entire CD was great (New Jersey)
you just gotta love him no matter what he does....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Oh and I bought the best shirt ever on the Slippery When Wet tour, Were back and kicken ***..I love that shirt and still have that .. I don't much were it .LOL but I remember I bought that shirt and had to wear a jacket over it when leaving the house because my dad would freak out over the saying on the back...Oh it was great........It is funny I keep remembering different things so far back... great awesome memories....

How funny! Mine wasn't as extensive as yours. I saw Bon Jovi back in the 80's in Irvine. Wearing my leather skirt and leopard top with my hair 4" high! I got into a really bad car accident on the way home on the freeway. The guy I was with went through the windsheild! We spent the night in the local hospital. I remember calling my parents to come and get us at around 3am. I almost gave both of them heart attacks! The concert was so good though. I remember Jon flying through the air on his little wire setup. I wanted to reach him and pull him down. I was so in love with that man that when my ex got mad at me, he actually smashed all of my Bon Jovi tapes! I almost died!
I did that same kind of banner thing for the Journey concert! They had a contest down south for KLOS. I didn't win though!
I asked yesterday where our seats were but she hasn't gotten back to me. I will let you know when/if I find out. This is gonna be so much fun!!

I got lucky a few years back and saw Frampton and Journey in the front row in Bakersfield. What a rush....
Kim
Feb 27, 2006, 09:33 PM
Epic and I will be in the 8th row on the floor unless these seats we won are better http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/laugh.gif. Although dancing with a whole Oakhurst crowd sounds amazing...nevertheless, he hasn't been to a show in years and if I have to choose between floor seats or not, he gets floor seats. Our daughter will be in the seats we won.
Definitely we have to meet up before, though. Let's arrange it Wednesday AM.

Feb 28, 2006, 01:42 AM

Will call window should work. We are stopping for dinner so I don't know if we will be there by 6, probably around 6:30-45 or so. Would that work? I will look at your pix so I know who ya are http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/happy.gif

50 bucks is a good deal. Especially if you like Bon Jovi.

That was such an awesome show!!. We were in the 8th row on the floor (right in front of Hugh, which made my bass-man happy). Jon walked right in front of us when he came in, then again when he went upstage after "Bed of Roses". I cried. I think I'm gonna save my pennies and go see them again when they finish up the tour back East.

Wow. I didn't know that Bon Jovi could produce this kind of worship, even after all these years. This is crazy. I've seen Bon Jovi in concert many times. I thought just the Europeans were crazy, but here too? What is he, the new Elvis but not as dead?

Mar 05, 2006, 04:48 AM
The Elvis thing sorta turned into a religion. I think there is even an actual church somewhere for the worshippers. http://oakhurstonline.com/icon/rolleyes2.gif

Yup, we are crazy here too. JBJ has something about him that drives us ladies crazy (at least, for me). So keep on rockin Jon, we'll be there to back ya up!

The thing isn't just JBJ; it's the whole band, the great vibes from the crowd and the performances, the positive growth of the band; all of it just an awesome package. I really love the solo stuff from David and Richie as well as the group stuff.
