Livin' On A Prayer

Bon Jovi. Easily my favorite artist of ALL time. Since I was about 5 years old I have been more than slightly obsessed with this band. I remember being 8 years old watching my sister and brother get ready to go to his concert. I was so jealous. My brother brought me back a play book and I kept that book for years. I have no idea where it is now. Wish I still had it but alas I do not. So years and years went by and I FINALLY got to see Bon Jovi live and in concert on Valentine's Day of 2006 in Nashville. Living in Memphis, you get used to artists coming to Little Rock, Nashville, New Orleans and St. Louis. But it is a bit rare for them to come to Memphis. Especially Bon Jovi. So, 22 years go by and they FINALLY come back to Memphis. All I saw was they were coming and I did not care how much I had to pay for a ticket (which ended up being the most I have EVER paid for a concert...but it was totally worth it). I went with my best friend Emily and we ended up getting to sit in a suite thanks to Barbara! It was an amazing concert! Sadly enough, Richie Sambora was unable to attend due to the fact he is in rehab....the guy that took his place was NO Richie Sambora but ehhh...he was okay. It was literally sold out. They even sold seats behind the stage. 31 years after starting Bon Jovi and they still know how to put on the best show ever.
