I am suppose to give a happy birthday shout out to a guy, or as my daddy says, a legend named Jon Bon Jovi (48). Daddy says that he has been a fan of Bon Jovi for over 20 years and that he could probably comprise the soundtrack of his life with Bon Jovi tracks. He also tells me that grannie, mommie, and him went to a concert when I was in mommy’s belly. Maybe that is why I got so much rhythm and musical creativity (my drums, guitar, and keyboard don’t lie). He also told me that at that particular concert (the Crush tour) that they sent a text to me on the message board at the arena. Although he admitted that they thought I was going to be a girl at the time and they were going to name me Jessie. I think they upgraded in every way.
Daddy also said that mommy and him danced to Bon Jovi’s Thank You for Loving Me during their first dance at their wedding. He must be great. And, in my opinion, he has gotten better taste over the years. But daddy is quick to point out that this was the look back in the day….it should stay there….back in the day….
Also, on this day, John Cowsill from one of my grannie’s favorite bands, The Cowsills, was also born today 54 years ago. I haven’t seen these guys perform, but my grannie plays their music all the time…..she is always singing Hair to me when my folks mention cutting my hair. She’s loco.
