"I'll Sleep When I'm Dead"... and it has to be a live performance, because Universal won't let you embed the video...

Born To Rock...

Oct. 7th, 1953 - Hector Samuel Juan Torres (better known as Tico Torres), drummer with Bon Jovi, was born...

"You Give Love A Bad Name"... a live performance from some Red Cross benefit (presumably a lot later than 1986, when the song was originally released, judging by the lack of poodle hair on Jon)...

Born To Rock...

Mar. 2nd, 1962 - Jon Bon Jovi is born... except, back in those days, he was known as John Francis Bongiovi, Jr.

I started doing this post (for I am cheating slightly - It's Monday, and this is back-dated) at work after 5pm, and I'd planned to post "Blaze Of Glory"... but I remembered I needed something from the supermarket on the way home, so I abandoned it.

Anyway, got home... made tea (tin of Heinz beans & meatballs and a bit of cheese on toast) - and as I was noshing my tea in front of the computer, and playing spider solitaire, this song came on iTunes (which is on "Shuffle")...

Bon Jovi and "Misunderstood"...
