Postmodern Jukebox covers Bon Jovi’s “Livin’ On A Prayer”

Love Postmodern Jukebox!

From Scott Bradlee of Postmodern Jukebox:

Miche Braden (from our “Sweet Child O’ Mine” cover) was in town, so she stopped by to lend her legendary powerful voice to this Bon Jovi ’80s classic.

Also, check out the horns playing the Richie Sambora guitar solo. This one takes me back to my New Jersey roots…

Follow Miche on Facebook! She’s truly a rare talent, and an artist in every sense of the word.

If you like, download the track from iTunes here.

I’ve shared other videos from Postmodern Jukebox here on The Randy Report here and here.

Jon Bon Jovi calls Justin Bieber out for being late: “Go to f***in’ work!”

Jon Bon Jovi is a real American rock star. He has the pedigree, he is the real thing. Been there, still doing that.

So when he calls Justin Bieber out for being late to his own shows, you’ve got to know you’re hearing from an elder statesman of rock – so pay attention, Mr. Bieber:

In an interview with the London Evening Standard, the 51-year-old musician slammed Bieber for showing up two hours late to a concert at the O2 arena in March.

“Every generation has guys that do that, none of that is new,” he told the newspaper of Bieber’s tardiness. “They run the risk of disrespecting their audience members who have worked hard to pay for their ticket, to give you the permission to take two or three hours of their lives — or in that kid’s case, 80 minutes of their lives.”

The rocker told the U.K. paper that Bieber needs to know that keeping his fans waiting isn’t cool, and he can’t let it happen again:

“Do it once, you can be forgiven. Do it enough times and shame on you. They won’t have you back. Then it just becomes a cliché. It’s really not cool — you’re an asshole. Go to f***in’ work!”

Jon Bon Jovi is alive

Jon Bon Jovi trended worldwide on Twitter today when people thought he was dead.

But he is not dead.

A poorly constructed, fake press release got retweeted a whole bunch of times and eventually, talk progressed from his appearance in an Advil commercial to his supposed demise.

Reactions ranged from shock and appreciation for Bon Jovi’s work to statements like “Jon Bon Jovi can only be killed by silver bullets”.

No official statement has been issued yet to confirm the death is just a rumor, though a rep is reported to have cleared up the matter.
