JBJ's birthday cake

LOL! This is so cute, I just had to share. Jon got a homemade birthday cake yesterday to celebrate:



Too bad they didn't smash it in that pretty face of his - I would have LOVED to get THAT on camera!

Happy Birthday JBJ!

So this is late, but I've had a crazy day and posting this on my blog didn't even cross my mind until now. LOL

Anyway, just wanted to wish a wonderful, happy day filled with love, laughter, friends, and family to Mr. Jon Bon Jovi. You will never know how much you are loved around the world, and how much your music has changed so many lives. It has changed and defined mine, and I can never truly thank you for all you have done. Your music has helped me through sadness and pain, heartbreak and trial, troubles and stress, as well as joy and happiness, falling in love and being loved, and has given me more hope and faith than you can possibly imagine.

I thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything you've done, everything I know you will do, and everything you have brought to my life. I wish you nothing but the best on your birthday, and I hope you got what you wanted - which I'm sure was to spend with your babies and wife!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

My Anaheim Videos - WGIGO & Bad Case of Loving You strut

FINALLY! Thank you to Rike for helping me find a program to rotate my videos with minimum quality loss....that'll teach me never to take vertical video again!

Here's the first video: 'We Got It Going On' from Saturday night. It's not the entire thing, unfortunately, because the people in front of me were like 7 feet tall and drunk, standing on their chairs so I couldn't see a thing half the time, but I was determined to get video of Jon shaking his money maker...and I did! You can see how I had to constantly move my camera around to avoid hands and heads in front of me, but that ass is worth it. :)




And here's a short clip of Jon, Richie, and Bobby doing Bad Case of Loving You and the strut...sorry I couldn't get more, said people in front made it impossible. :(

IBTFY: what do you think?

I was talking about this with some friends after Friday and Saturday's shows in Anaheim, and I've been seeing varied comments on Twitter, Facebook, and Backstage. Sooo...I was wondering what you all thought about this: when the band does I'll Be There For You, who do you prefer to be singing? Jon solo? Richie solo? Or both in a duet?

I personally love when they both sing. They complement each other's voices so well, and each adds passion and depth to the song. I got chills when they both started singing it on Saturday night! Last tour (and I think for HAND, too?) Richie sang it solo, and I know while many people loved it (myself included), still many others prefer Jon's voice.

So, it's the poll of the week over on the left column of my blog -- and if you'd like to share your opinion further, feel free to comment here!
