gasp, ignored bon jovi?

okay, jon is a bit lamish, but richie pwnz.

Undertoad · 06-29-2006, 07:24 AM

Is richie the one bon jovi was going to kick out of the band for getting fat?

Ibby · 06-29-2006, 07:37 AM

I listen to Yngwie, you think I care if hes fat?

Undertoad · 06-29-2006, 07:40 AM

No, but jon bon jovi does. One of the band, I don't remember which, he was going to kick out for getting fat. As a musician who got fat I am so unimpressed by this.

Griff · 06-29-2006, 07:58 AM

Jon's music seems cooler from 20+ years distance. He was on an unbearable high rotatation at that point. I hadn't heard the weight story, wow, what a jerk. Oh and Jon just came in and sang with the act that was scheduled, no hot band.

Ibby · 06-29-2006, 08:29 AM

So do I get to go?

Springsteen didn't get his start there Ibram. Greetings from Asbury Park and The Wild, the Innocent, and the E Street Shuffle both came out in '73 - the Stone Pony opened in '74. It's famous because he used to stop in and play unannounced gigs there even during the height of his career.

Who's next?

What awesome guitarist, who wrote Ramblin' Man, did Griff see unannounced at a hole in the wall bar in Scranton PA?

Elspode · 06-29-2006, 12:12 PM

Dickie Betts?
