Bon Jovi - It's good that the music "thing" worked out for him ;-)


So is this your country album?
It's almost like my country album.

Are you going to start wearing a cowboy hat?
Didn't I do that in the '80s? At least it wasn't to cover up a bald spot. I was just going to say that. Some of those guys do it for that reason.

Like Dwight Yoakam.

Yeah. And he wore tighter jeans than I did.

Did you have to lie in bed and pull them up?
No, no, no, no. I wasn't the fat guy trying to squeeze into them—I was an emaciated rock star.

You must be the only rock star still married to his high-school sweetheart.
That's not true. There's Bono. I can't even say I'm the only rock star whose name begins with B, or Bo, or even Bon.

Isn't your wife a karate expert? Couldn't she kick your butt?
Probably. But I run faster.

You have four kids—but I haven't seen photos of any of them!

That's right. I'm not a media ...

Whore?

[Laughs] Right. I don't show up at every premiere or walk out of every hotel with the kids. It's my profession, not theirs.

I've noticed over the years that you sometimes have a hairy chest and sometimes it's completely bare.
Cultivating the crops. Grow them and cut them down. And then I sell them.
Where? On eBay? Yeah. You gotta do what you can to make ends meet. Guys buy them, implant them and their wives dig it.

You used to sweep the floor at your cousin's recording studio. Were you a good sweeper?
No! I was never meant to have a real job.

So it's lucky this singing thing panned out. Otherwise, what else would you have done?
Not much. I think I would be asking you if you wanted large fries with that shake. (
