Owen Wilson spent the weekend with an unlikely pal: Richie Sambora.

A source told People that Owen, appearing a little disheveled and withdrawn, was at Nobu at the Shore Club on Friday night. He dined with a group of friends before meeting up with Sambora.

"Owen and Richie were just chilling together, talking at a table," said an observer.

On Saturday, Owen hung out with "Wedding Crashers" co-star Vince Vaughn.

Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora has pleaded guilty to a charge of drunk driving.
Sambora has pleaded no contest to driving with a blood alcohol level of .08 or higher on Tuesday. Consequently, a DUI charge has been dismissed, together with a charge of child endangerment for driving drunk with his daughter and another child.
Sambora has been ordered to pay a fine amounting to an estimated US$1,600. He will be placed on probation for three years and must attend an alcohol education course.

Troubled rocker Richie Sambora has pled no contest to drink driving and avoided jail.

Richie Sambora struck a deal with prosecutors Tuesday just hours after they filed drunken driving charges against him, pleading no contest to one misdemeanor count of driving with a blood-alcohol level above the legal limit.

In turn, the district attorney agreed to drop a second charge -- driving under the influence of alcohol -- against the Bon Jovi guitarist, said Farrah Emami, a district attorney spokeswoman.

Sambora was sentenced to three years of informal probation, three months of first-offender alcohol awareness class and court fees. He also cannot have any measurable amount of drugs or alcohol in his system while driving during his probation.

The Laguna Beach Police Department has requested two misdemeanor counts against Richie Sambora – one for driving under the influence and one for child endangerment, Jason Kravetz of the department tells Usmagazine.com

Close friends of Richie Sambora’s are distraught over the idea that the Bon Jovi guitarist might be facing a child endangerment charge in addition to a DUI charge stemming from his March 25 arrest. People magazine reported that according to a source close to the case, police have indeed recommended both charges to prosecutors. While the district attorney’s office cannot comment on the case for now, one Sambora pal is worried about how the rocker will feel if the charges come through. (An arraignment is set for May 7.)

Police have recommended to prosecutors that Richie Sambora be charged with DUI and child endangerment – both as misdemeanors – stemming from his March 25 arrest, says a source close to the case.

Law enforcement sources tell us there's a dogfight inside the Laguna Beach PD, where the brass has recommended that prosecutors file child endangerment charges against Sambora for his DUI bust March 26. We're told "a significant number of officers" inside the department feel there's no evidence of child endangerment. There was no smell of alcohol on his breath, and no evidence of dangerous or erratic driving.

Richie Sambora could be charged with child endangerment after being arrested for drunk-driving with his daughter in the car.The Bon Jovi guitarist was pulled over by police on March 25th in Laguna Beach, California, for driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI) after police observed his vehicle weaving in traffic.

In his first public appearance since his DUI arrest, Richie Sambora gave a shout-out to an important group of people – his fans – during the Bon Jovi concert Monday night in Denver.
Near the end of the band's set, Jon Bon Jovi introduced Sambora to the crowd and then exited the stage. Sambora, sporting black leather pants and a long, purple overcoat, walked to the center-stage microphone and addressed the crowd:"Hello Denver," he said, as the crowd cheered. "I just want to thank everyone for their support. Sometimes friends need the help of their friends to get by. This next song is one that keeps coming back in my life and is current again ... ."
The crowd stayed on its feet while Sambora launched into a solo rendition of "These Days."
The singer is scheduled to appear in court for arraignment on May 7.

It wasn't until the end of Bon Jovi's concert last evening in Denver, Colorado that Richie Sambora made his first public statement regarding his DUI arrest last week.

Sambora, after being introduced to the crowd by lead singer and longtime songwriting partner, Jon Bon Jovi, thanked the crowd for their support. Bon Jovi left the stage to allow Sambora the opportune moment to publicly state his feelings about the shocking turn of events for this respected rock musician.

BON JOVI rocker RICHIE SAMBORA used the band's gig in Colorado on Monday night (31Mar08) to thank his fans for their continued support throughout his personal troubles.
The Living On A Prayer hitmaker's appearance at the Denver gig was his first public outing since he was arrested for driving under the influence (DUI) in California last Tuesday (25Mar08).
As the concert neared its end, frontman Jon Bon Jovi introduced Sambora to the crowd before letting him take the limelight as he left the stage.
And the guitarist - who was admitted to rehab last year (07) following a battle with alcoholism - used the time to express his gratitude for his fans' devotion.
He told the audience: "Hello Denver. I just want to thank everyone for their support. Sometimes friends need the help of their friends to get by."
Sambora is due in court for arraignment on 7 May (08).

'Spirit of Music,' the St. Croix Valley Sexual Assault Response Team fundraiser, is planned from 5 p.m. to midnight, April 19, at the Hudson Golf Club.
Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora each donated an autographed guitar to be auctioned on Ebay and also at the event.
