Jon Bon Jovi visited LA's Skid Row while he was in town for a concert at Staples Center.
Bon Jovi started the Jon Bon Jovi Soul Foundation to help the homeless. It was touching to hear about an artist who want to help by being personally and directly involved.
It's a far cry from the old hair band days of the 1980s. His newer music reflects this social conscience.
Media coverage for the visit was given to KTLA channel 5. Bon Jovi's was photographed with the LA Times columnist who wrote about the man who inspired the film, The Soloist.
Bon Jovi also contributed vocals to "Everybody Hurts," the remake of REM's classic song. Charity single critics take note that Bon Jovi practices what he preaches.
Sadly, this reviewer will not be attending the concert at Staples Center, however, Bon Jovi certainly knows how to put on a show after all of these years.
