Bon Jovi’s Special Performance
On June 7, Jon Bon Jovi surprised attendees with a five-song set at the opening of his rooftop bar and restaurant, JBJ’s. This performance also celebrated the release of his sixteenth album, Forever.

They kicked off the set with “Blood on Blood,” a song not performed live since 2019. Addressing the audience, he shared:
“It’s been a while since I’ve performed for a crowd. Too long! It feels amazing to be back. I hope it sounds as good as it feels.”
Jon also reflected on the significance of Nashville in his career, recalling the time they spent writing and recording there. The event attracted a star-studded crowd, including celebrities like Jelly Roll and Big Kenny. Bon Jovi and his band performed beloved classics like “You Give Love a Bad Name” alongside their latest single, “Legendary,” from the new album.
