Details of Bon Jovi’s Recent Performance
On Friday, June 7, Bon Jovi played a surprise five-song set in Nashville to celebrate the opening of Jon Bon Jovi’s new rooftop bar and restaurant, JBJ’s. This event also marked the release of their sixteenth album, ‘Forever.’
This performance was particularly notable as Jon Bon Jovi is still recovering vocally from a 2022 surgery. Despite his ongoing recovery, he delivered a strong performance at the Nashville club. He showed his typical high energy, dancing on the small stage and encouraging the audience to sing along. They kicked off with ‘Blood on Blood,’ a song not performed live since 2019. Jon addressed the crowd, acknowledging his absence from the stage:
“It’s been a couple of years since I’ve been up on a stage with some people in the house. Too long, too long. Yeah, it feels good. I hope it sounds good because it feels good.”
He also spoke about Nashville’s significance to the band, noting their time spent writing and recording there. The event drew other celebrities, including Jelly Roll and Big Kenny. Bon Jovi and his band played hits like ‘You Give Love a Bad Name’ and their new single ‘Legendary’ from the album ‘Forever.’
