Three years ago, when I first got into Bon Jovi, I would’ve said, “heck yes, Richie should definitely return to the band!” Now, I have my doubts. For those of you that don’t know what I’m talking about, Richie Sambora was the guitar player for the American hard rock band Bon Jovi from 1983 to... Continue Reading →
My Top 10 Bon Jovi Songs
Back in July, there were speculations that Richie Sambora was planning to release a new studio album in the fall. You know, the one he’s been working on since the pandemic. Flash forward to November, four months later, and Sambora hasn’t released the album yet. What’s holding him back from releasing the dang thing? We’re... Continue Reading →
Is It Time for Bon Jovi to Retire?
I’m going to put a pause on the Disney College Program blog posts to talk about something that’s been trending in the music world recently (at least in my opinion). The American rock band Bon Jovi kicked off their 2022 tour in Omaha, Nebraska at the CHI Health Center on Friday, April 1. Unfortunately, they... Continue Reading →

Bon Jovi Went Pop Rock With ‘Crush’ and Made It Work | Album Review
After the success of These Days (1995), Bon Jovi took another hiatus before getting together to work on their seventh studio album, Crush (2000).

Bon Jovi’s ‘New Jersey’ Had Room for Improvement | Album Review
I was hesitant to get Bon Jovi’s New Jersey (1988) at first, since Richie Sambora isn’t in Bon Jovi anymore, therefore, I shouldn’t have anything to do with Bon Jovi, which is stupid because I previously bought 7800° Fahrenheit (1985).

Bon Jovi’s ‘7800° Fahrenheit’ Is Cheesy, But Enjoyable | Album Review
Here’s a funny story. When I was browsing through the Book Off at Pearlridge, I found Bon Jovi’s 7800° Fahrenheit (1985) and Slippery When Wet (1986). I was torn between those two albums because while the latter is a classic, I’m all about showing love for the underappreciated stuff. The only track I knew from... Continue Reading →
