JBJ also claimed he was going to embrace Buffalo and move there. Whatever... 

 

He was going to move the team to Toronto. As I remember, Ralph had baked in some severe financial penalties for any buyer who moved the team. This, and JBJ being a pauper when compared to the likes of the Pegulas, Trump, and Golisano doomed his bid. 

Ralph Wilson had it in the will that the Buffalo Bills could not be sold to anybody relocating them

 

He saved the bills

' Talas' That's a name that I haven't heard, since the '70's. They showed up at my Halloween party on Oxford St. in Buffalo, dressed as members of Kiss. (1975, I believe) 🙂

 

Use to go to the Barrel Head in West Seneca to watch Talas in 75.

His ego drives him to do things to remain relevant.  He has created some good music but it has been a while.  A lot of musicians don't know when it is time to go away gracefully.  The usual tip off is when their music starts being played as elevator background music or as a jingle in advertising.

 

Really, someone from the so called garden state should take a drive around their community before taking shots at Buffalo.  Just sayin'

In 1986 (or so), Bon Jovi opened for Judas Priest at what was then known as The War Memorial in Rochester. I was there, in the front (of course) and here’s my memory of when Bon Jovi played:

 

The bassist comes up close to the crowd and the guy directly to my left (if you lived then, you know him: t-shirt cut off at the shoulders, jeans and, of course, long hair in the back (think @Virgil picture but not that crazy)), hocks the biggest loogie I’ve ever seen and hits him right below his bottom lip. It was so full of mucous and snot that it just stayed there, dangling (in his tickler) for the ENTIRE song. It eventually was hanging six inches or more, going back and forth as he ‘rocked out’. 
 

While there were a few Bon Jovi songs I liked, I could never listen without thinking about that...to this day. 
 

With all of that being said, Jon Bon Jovi can suck it...the way the ROC told him to way back when!!!!!!!! 😃

Mentions of the name B** J***   will forever foul my mood instantly.  

Thanks BJ.

Rock star?   He is a classic example of how unfair the music business is.  
 

Terrible musician and songwriter.  Watching Talas play at Kenmore East High School dances was far better than anything Bon Jovi could do.  
 

 

Talas was good- you are giving B** J**** far too much credit.  C**k Robin was better than B** J****.

As was Two Hills, 805, Fat Brat, and a myriad of other local bands

Talas was a real decent band too.  I woulda paid to see them MANY more time over pretty boy JBJ....

My wife loves Bon Jovi. I love my wife, but she doesn’t know jack all about music. I think that tells us all we need to know about Jon Bon Jovi. His is the music of a lady who doesn’t know anything about music.

 

This made me laugh!

I might catch crap for this....I actually like his music

 

Hate everything else

 

"Wanted Dead or Alive" is an all-time great song.  Which makes me wonder who wrote it for them.

I despised bon jovi and his music way before he tried to carpetbag the Bills. His music is for like 40 year old women who hate their husbands... With his fancy hair and spandex pants. 

 

Like seriously Becky, gag me with a spatula

First off, Bon Jovi's music absolutely sucks.


Second, he tried to put together a buying consortium to move the Bills out of WNY, despite his claims to the contrary.

 

I'm not sure why people discuss him, or anything about him.

 

Who cares?

 

 

 

 

In no way whatsoever do I want to be accused of defending the likes of Bongiovi.  But I do not believe he had the wherewithal to "...put together a buying consortium..." 

 

I believe he was recruited by said consortium to be the mouthpiece/frontman. He was obviously the group's patsy, IMO.  When he denied knowing the group was going to move the Bills, I actually believed him. I think he is that clueless. But believe him or not, f@#k him! 

 

But I hate bad raps.

Yeah, I doubt he put it together and was just the figurehead, but there's no way he didn't know about their ultimate plans.
