    "I've seen a million faces and I've rocked them all." One of the greatest lines ever.

    I was stationed in Japan (USAF) in 1990, and I had missed out on going to their New Years Concert at the Tokyo Dome but was in Roppongi that night with some friends at a bar named Lexington Queen. If you were a foreigner they usually would not let you in unless you had were with a beautiful lady, which among us we had one, plus I am a Hafu (and looked it) and speak the lingo. We got it, were partying it up, screamed Happy New Year, then many minutes later, was in the restroom and some tall. curly-haired American asked me if I was in the Military. I initially ignored him, but he kept talking and then I recognized him as David Bryan, Bon Jovi's Keyboardist. I stated I was in the USAF, and he asked if I had friends and if I wanted to join the group in the VIP section so that they had some Americans to talk with. He stated for 2 weeks now, they only had their Japanese interpreters and publicists to talk with and that their english was heavily accented and they wanted to talk with native english speakers. I agreed and we partied with them until early in the morning. To this day, I regret that I didn't even have a disposable camera on me nor did I ask for any autographs. Still a good memory though.

    I was at Wembley Stadium, London in 1995 and they performed this song; it blew me away, as it did everyone in the crowd. Richie is a beast on the guitar, and Jon just held the crowd in his hands... The whole band had their solo spots, David on keyboards and Tico on drums. The entire concert was a night to remember. And to top it off, Van Halen were the supporting act! It doesn't matter how old I get, that night is in the bank forever. That was a very long time ago. But Bon Jovi will always have a special place in my heart. They’ve helped me through some hard times.

    Singing this song in the car, my wife and I sing the line “I’ve seen a million faces and I rocked them all”. The kids in the back seat flipped from kid music to adult music for the final time. I think this is the exact moment that my kids began to think that mom and dad are a little bit crazy. Wait til we have grandkids. Van Halen’s “Hot for Teacher” is definitely in order. There are other great Bon Jovi songs, but none even come close to this one. It’s hard to beat a perfect song.

    As a performer who is currently doing multiple shows a day everyday until the the day before Christmas Eve, I really connect to your comments about performing and rest. It’s hard to explain to people what a toll it takes physically and emotionally. I always balk when I’m going to a show and someone says “have fun!” Don’t get me wrong. It’s more than fun. It’s the heights. I live for it. But have fun implies playing around and it’s not that at all. It’s WORK!

    Another parallel to the western outlaw theme is the pace of the music. During the guitar 'slow downs' it feels like riding a horse at a slow pace. When you're an 'outlaw' there's no need to be in a hurry. Every concert is a showdown, Dead or Alive. It only matters when you're on stage, and Bon Jovi is still standing tall.
    Add Seegar's "Turn the page" and Jackson Brown's "Stay" and you can begin to get a glimpse of the hardships of touring as a rock star. Moments of glamour scattered between long days of the grind. Great review!
