Bon Jovi’s music has a similar effect on Gov. Jon S. Corzine, who says he prefers classical music and jazz to rock. Still recuperating from a near-fatal crash on the Garden State Parkway, Mr. Corzine led party guests at Mr. Bon Jovi’s Labor Day party onto an empty dance floor when Mr. Bon Jovi began singing “Who Says You Can’t Go Home.”
David Bryan had quit the band he and Bon Jovi founded in order to study medicine. While in college, he realized he wanted to pursue music full-time and was accepted to Juilliard School, the New York music school. When Bon Jovi called his friend and said he was putting together a band and a record deal looked likely, Bryan followed Bon Jovi's lead and gave up his studies.
The legacy that Bon Jovi has created over the last three decades is an undeniable force in American rock music. While many bands from the 80s have been relegated to the history books, Bon Jovi's evolution has bridged the gap of generations and made them one of the truly indelible names in rock 'n' roll.

Jon said: "I am the Elvis Costello of movies and Tom Cruise in my music. I've been critically acclaimed in most of my TV and film work, but I didn't sell any movie tickets, and with the band, it's like Tom Cruise - I've had all the commercial success you could dream of, but hey, the guy still doesn't have an Oscar. What you gonna do?"
