BON JOVI star RICHIE SAMBORA enjoyed a break from rehab on Wednesday (26Sep07) night to join his bandmates at the Recording Academy's New York Chapter's Honors show.

I'm going back just to finish (rehab treatment) this weekend. I figured, why not get to the bottom of this and really understand it?"

Richie Sambora Lands In LiLo Land
Being a rockstar is tough.� There’s the long hours, crazy travel schedule and constant partying.� And it appears that Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora needs some time to cool off.The living guitar legend took to the Cirque Lodge that’s currently housing Lindsay Lohan in order to get himself sorted out.� Apparently his stint at the UCLA Medical Center back in June of this year didn’t quite take.
Though he’s well past his heyday, Sambora only recently started having problems with addiction. In fact he claims that his excessive drinking began after he divorced Heather Locklear and his dad died.
He told press, “I was just drinking too much and I needed to get my life together… It’s been a rough year. I’m still in therapy and stuff like that, but it’s good. I’m great. I feel fine.”
And a few months later, Sambora is back in rehab, this time hoping to kick the habit for good.

He'll join Mike Tirico and Tony Kornheiser in the booth. Michele Tafoya and Suzy Kolber will be on the sidelines.
ESPN also added three people — Emmitt Smith, Bill Parcells and Keyshawn Johnson — to the studio team. For the second half of the opening doubleheader, it will have three Mikes (Greenberg, Golic and Ditka) in the booth, with Bonnie Bernstein on the sidelines.
A new version of the Hank Williams Jr. theme song has been taped, this time backed by Brian Setzer, Richie Sambora, Gretchen Wilson and more.

Thursday: A half-hour "NFL Kickoff" concert at 8 p.m. is followed by the Saints-Colts game.

Then they came into Dallas and played the Cowboys (and) I said, "They are the real deal.' "
