Ha! Honestly, back in 1987 was when I first got MTV, the first few videos I saw were Bon Jovi Livin on a Prayer and Ozzy Osbourne Crazy Train.. those 2 videos made me want to play guitar....
 
Re: ESP Sambora

Just about everything Bon Jovi-related has devolved to sad proportions these days. Even their old kickaass songs from Slippery When Wet and New Jersey have been totally nutered live and lack any balls or fire whatsoever. It has become the Gilmore Girls of rock bands.

Blah never liked that thing. He had great taste back in the 80's and his early 90's Fender signatures were cool too. Now he's just lost it. This one will always be kick ass

You have obviously missed the last 2 tours. They kick ass as much now as they did then, even the old stuff. They haven't remained relevant by being lame.

I don't know about that. There's no shortage of clips on youtube from the 2008 shows. And very rarely do i see anything even resembling the smoking shows of the 80's and early 90's. I never said they're "irrelevant", I simply feel that they've become far more accessible to the Soccor Mom crowd and the QVC Shoppers (a channel they've promoted through) of the world. They are no longer a band that would belong on a Monsters of Rock tour.

I take Youtube clips of concerts with a grain of salt because the audio is so compressed it's rediculous. I can tell ya from experience cause my wife and I have seen the last 2 tours and I saw them in '87 as well, they can still kick ass live.

I absolutely agree. The thing is. Those soccer moms now are the same audience that were in high school and college back in the 80's and early 90's and went nuts over them. They are simply catering to their crowd.

BTW, GO STEELERS!

Wekk unfortunately it seems Gibson has closed musicyo, and therefore, Kramer down, so we won't be able to get another Sambora/Jersey Star model....

They just closed down MusicYo. Kramer Guitars are still around though.

The Jersey Star was discontinued at least a couple years ago, well before MusicYo was shut down.
