I went to a Bon Jovi concert last night at the Two River Theater in Red Bank, NJ. I am not a Bon Jovi fan - I don't like the sound of the band, and I never bought any of their recordings. But last night, Jon Bon Jovi performed an acoustic set without his band. He was accompanied by Lorenza Ponce on violin, Jeff Kazee on keyboards, and Bobby Bandiera on guitar. He would sing a few songs, then sit down with Philadelphia DJ Pierre Robert and talk about his life. The music was very good, and the talk was interesting. Mr. Bon Jovi has a good sense of humor! I was pleasantly surprised. I didn't want to go, but in the end I was happy I did.
The theater, by the way, is brand new. It's small (350 seats), with excellent acoustics and a very nice design. The concert was a benefit for the theater company. It was called "Jon Bon Jovi: Off the Record".
