Live Earth India has been cancelled

Joint Official Statement from Live Earth Founder Kevin Wall, The Office of the Honorable Al Gore and Dr. R.K. Pachauri, Chairman IPCC regarding Live Earth India

Everyone involved with Live Earth India, from our U.S.- and India-based staff, artists and crew to our India-based broadcast, production, non-profit and marketing communications partners, is stunned and saddened by the tragic events of the past few days in our host city Mumbai. We always felt very welcomed and safe as we spent more time on the ground in Mumbai to finalize plans for Live Earth India, scheduled for December 7.

Due to circumstances far beyond our control, we are saddened to announce that Live Earth India has been cancelled. We will continue to work for solutions to the climate crisis for the good of the people of India and around the world. But for now, our thoughts and our prayers are with the victims of this terrible attack, with the bereaved, with the people of Mumbai and with everyone in India.

Al Gore, Dr. R.K. Pachauri, Amitabh Bachchan, Jon Bon Jovi, and Kevin Wall
Announce “Live Earth India” December 7, 2008, in Mumbai, India

Mumbai, India (September 18, 2008) – On December 7, 2008, Live Earth India, this year’s concert for a climate in crisis, will feature world-renowned musicians and performers, environmental advocates and celebrities from India, the U.S. and all over the globe. Live Earth India will feature personal and policy solutions to the climate crisis, offer support for India’s most important environmental issues and causes, and provide a platform so India can continue its global climate leadership. Former U.S. Vice President Al Gore, who participated in the press announcement live via satellite, said India should lead the world by committing to produce all of its new energy in the electricity sector from clean and renewable sources within the next 10 years. Beneficiaries of Live Earth India include TERI’s Light A Billion Lives campaign and Climate Project India, which are dedicated to promoting awareness and finding solutions to current climate situations while alleviating poverty. Along with Mr. Gore, Indian environmental leader Dr. R. K. Pachauri, actor and Live Earth India spokesperson Amitabh Bachchan, and Jon Bon Jovi, lead singer of Live Earth India western headliner Bon Jovi, all joined Executive Producer and Live Earth founder Kevin Wall for today’s important announcement. Also in attendance were Sabbas Joseph from WizCraft Entertainment and representatives from TERI and Project Climate India. In a surprise announcement Kevin Wall disclosed that the Creative Director for Live Earth India was none other than acclaimed Indian film director and producer Shekhar Kapur. Live Earth India is coming to Andheri Sports Complex in Mumbai, India, December 7, 2008.
“Live Earth’s mission is to cultivate grassroots and worldwide awareness of and solutions for environmental issues that affect us all. Awareness activates change and important issues deserve a global platform,” said Kevin Wall, founder of Live Earth. “That’s why the stage for Live Earth India will host some of the biggest artists from India to the U.S. and beyond, while we bring India to the world. And the world has a lot to learn from traditional Indian culture about sustainability.”
“India will be among the leading powers of the global economy in the coming decades,” said former Vice President Al Gore. �“As a democracy that is looked up to by many nations, especially for its commitment to inclusive growth for its diverse peoples, India has a major role to play in leadership by example for the climate crisis and sustainable development. �Kevin and I are honored to bring Live Earth to India.”

A Double Date With Bon Jovi

“We want to come to Beaver County,” says Bon Jovi keyboardist David Bryan. “We still have to prove that we can be No. 1 in Beaver County.”

Whoa, slow your roll there, David.

The nearest Bon Jovi will get to Beaver County is Pittsburgh, where the 25-year-old rock band performs twice in the next two weeks.

Bon Jovi entertains this Wednesday at Mellon Arena, then returns to the Igloo on March 15 for an initially scheduled and virtually sold-out show.

On Feb. 13, bandmates Bryan, Richie Sambora and Tico Torres did a one-hour conference call with reporters to promote the spring leg of Bon Jovi’s Lost Highway Tour. The band was in New York, preparing to leave the next day for Northern Illinois University to rehearse for the first time with their new stage set.

BON JOVI: OSAKA, JAPAN #4

Osaka 2 days : I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU (electric version featuring Richie Sambora on lead vocals)

B01.jpg

BON JOVI ar currently on tour in JAPAN. They've played two shows in TOKYO and one show in NAGOYA. Last night (Friday, April 14th) they played the OSAKA DOME in OSAKA, JAPAN. Now, for the first three shows of the Japanese tour, Jon Bon Jovi began the show by performing LAST MAN STANDING out on the Front of House mix position (just like he did for much of the arena runs earlier in the tour.) He would then make his way to the stage, through the crowd - again, just like in the US/Canada dates of the past few months. However, when it came to the acoustic portion of the show, even if the band performed BLAZE OF GLORY, it was not done from a platform out in the crowd. The venue (baseball stadium) didn't allow for that type of production.

So, for the OSAKA show, Jon decided to change things up a bit. Check out the set list:

BON JOVI / BILLBOARD AD

To commemorate the success (so far) of BON JOVI's album HAVE A NICE DAY, the HAVE A NICE DAY World Tour, the single "Have A Nice Day" and the current smash "Who Says You Can't Go Home" the band's tour promoter AEG put the following advertisement in April 1, 2006 issue of BILLBOARD Magazine. It runs on the inside cover and the adjacent page. Since most of you don't have subscriptions to the industry magazine, we thought you might like to have a copy of the ad for your collections!

RICHIE UPDATE

YES!!

RICHIE SAMBORA will be attending the SONGWRITERS HALL OF FAME ceremonies in NYC on June 9th. He will be inducting LES PAUL into the Hall of Fame. He will also join the all-star jam and perform at the dinner. (He did this back in 2000 -- which is why, when he appeared on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart he was all dressed up!

GREETINGS FROM BEANTOWN

GREETINGS FROM BEANTOWN

(Friday, May 20, 2005)

The BON JOVI gang headed up to BOSTON, Massachussetts yesterday (Thursday, MAY 19) for a private show (for a software company called SAP.) The concert was at the Agganis Arena, the brand new hockey venue built at Boston University. The band flew up in the afternoon and weren't in the building more than an hour before their friends in the sports world joined them backstage and to watch soundcheck. DOUG FLUTIE was on hand, as was DAVID WELLS. The band took the stage around 9:00pm and were joined by BOBBY BANDIERA on guitar and JEFF KAZEE on additional keyboards (7 guys playing on stage!) During the show, New England Patriots Head Coach BILL BELICHICK entered the building to watch his friend on stage. The band had sports royalty cheering them on. The set list was as follows:

Good morning cherubs!!! So nice to see you visiting our site here at www.bonjovi.com -- just wanted to share the very latest in Bon Jovi updates with you all. Gather round! As of now, there is still no official release date determined for the forthcoming BON JOVI record - nothing confirmed and nothing we're at liberty to discuss with you all. We understand people are genuinely excited (we are too!!!!) and we understand that it can be relentlessly confusing when band members or third parties are mentioning information that may or may not come to pass... so, since this site is the Official Bon Jovi site it makes no sense to toss around speculations. When there is a confirmed released date and we get the greenlight from the band and their managers, we'll be able to announce it officially. We promise, we're not trying to keep any secrets from you - but loose lips sink ships and if we're not allowed to share info, we're not allowed to share info. We're sure you all understand completely.

PLEASE STAND BY (Friday, May 13, 2005)

... as www.bonjovi.com heads into a phase where many elements of the site will be overhauled. As the band moves into an album promotion/release and touring phase, you might notice elements of this site changing over the next several months. While most of the changes will be behind the scenes, some may be obvious to the casual visitor (i.e. new 'testimonial' format for easier viewing - yes! more testimonials will continue to be added! - and the cessation of the Q&A function.) We can confirm however, the basic look and feel of the site will not be changing. We hope you'll bear with us and our staff as the site continues to move foward.

BOX SET SONG HISTORIES

Below is a breakdown of the when and where the songs from the 100,000,000 BON JOVI FANS CAN'T BE WRONG... box set originated. This is not scripture - it took some work culling this info from the archives (even on the box set DVD vs. the box set booklet you might find contradictions -- the truth is, 20 years of tapes unearthed with less than stellar labelling!):

BOX SET DVD: EASTER EGG DIRECTIONS

BOX SET DVD: EASTER EGG DIRECTIONS

100,000,000 BON JOVI FANS CAN'T BE WRONG included a bonus DVD which, in turn, included five (5) EASTER EGGS of footage. While many fans were able to find the Easter Eggs on their own and share with other fans how to find them, many other fans have still yet to learn the secrets. Therefore, with Easter coming up fast on the calendar, following is a 'map' to the 5 Easter Eggs (sorry, no chocolate involved):

1. RIDE THE SNAKE - On the MAIN MENU put the HIGHLIGHT on the GREEN BONUS PASS. Press the down-arrow on your DVD remote THREE times and the clip will play automatically. The clip is of the band leaving the dressing room and walking towards the stage.

2. LOVE FOR OBIE - During the chapter 'MISS FOURTH OF JULY' Jon talks about running a corporation and the visual clip of Jon getting off the band's plane is the key to accessing the Easter Egg. When the clip of Jon getting off the plane is on your screen, press the ENTER or OK button on your DVD remote. The original clip will play in its entirety with a special message from Richie to Obie.

3. JON MEETS GEORGE MARTIN - From the MAIN MENU, select the GREEN BONUS PASS, then select the BAND MESSAGES pass. Put the highlight on JON's picture and with the arrows on your DVD remote, press the following combinations: DOWN, RIGHT, LEFT, UP, UP, UP. On the third press of the up arro, the initials 'JB' will automatically pop up. Press the ENTER or OK button on your DVD remote at this point to access the footage of Jon Bon Jovi working in a London recording studio with Sir George Martin. Sir George Martin, the Beatles' producer, worked with Jon on The Glory of Gershwin, a George Gerswin tribute album. Jon performed 'How Long Has This Been Going On' featuring Richie Sambora on guitar.

4. SO YOU WANNA BE A ROAD MANAGER? When the previous Easter Egg's initials 'JB' pop up, don't press the Enter or OK button on your DVD remote. INSTEAD, press the ARROWS on your DVD remote in the following combinations to have another bonus clip automatically play: LEFT, LEFT, LEFT, RIGHT, RIGHT, RIGHT. The footage is an outtake from the VH-1 Command The Band contest/program. The two finalists are at the Amsterdam Airport where they meet the band (well, not all of them) for the first time...

5. ASS TECH - From the MAIN MENU, select the GREEN BONUS PASS, then select the PHOTO PASS. Proceed to the last photo in the Photo Gallery by pressing NEXT. On the last photo, put the highlight on BONUS MENU and press the arrow buttons on your DVD remote in the following combination to access the bonus clip automatically: UP, UP, DOWN, DOWN, LEFT, RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT. Richie needs a pillow - this is classic BJTV footage included for those who didn't see it online.

We hope this helps some of you find the small Easter Eggs included on the DVD.

NEWS UPDATE: MARCH 8/9

WHERE IN THE WORLD IS RICHIE SAMBORA?

1) After working on the album in Los Angeles last week, RICHIE SAMBORA hit the Big Apple this week. On Monday March 8th he took part in the COMEDY LOVE CALL at New York City's Beacon Theatre. This was a fundraising comedy performance to raise monies for Autism research and education. It was spearheaded by Robert Smigel, the brilliant comedy writer (a/k/a 'Triumph The Insult Comic Dog'.) Those who attended and participated also included Saturday Night Live's Tina Fey, Maya Rudolph, Horatio Sanz, Rachel Dratch and Amy Poehler as well as Adam Sandler, Conan O'Brien, Lewis Black, Jon Stewart and Stephen Colbert.
2) On Tuesday MARCH 9th, RICHIE is performing as part of the PEOPLE FOR THE AMERICAN WAY's 2005 The SPIRIT OF LIBERTY Gala at New York City's legendary PLAZA HOTEL. The organization is honoring many people (Richie is participating as a friend is being honored.) Richie will be performing, accompanied by Hugh McDonald and Everett Bradley. Other performers slated to perform at the event included Patti Smith and Dave Matthews. This is a high-ticket fundraiser which has been sold out for some time however, celebrity syndicated photo sites (i.e. www.wireimage.com and their international counterparts) have images from the event. Richie, we're quite sure, would like to get home to the LA weather after experiencing the brutal winter storm that hit NYC today.

SPEECHES

BON JOVI were honored with the AMERICAN MUSIC AWARDS Lifetime Merit Award back in LA last month. What you do know is that Jon spoke on behalf of the band when accepting the awards (and you can go to the VIDEOS section of the 100,000,000 BON JOVI FANS CAN'T BE WRONG... page of this website to view the entire AMA segment featuring Bon Jovi's career retrospective reel, their performance and the speech.) What you probably don't know is that the thank you speech Jon gave was an abbreviated one... Jon actually had written a longer speech but since there is only so much time for thanks yous during a live awards telecast, he edited the speech down to what you saw/heard him deliver during the show. Jon however gave us the full-length speech to share with you here at www.bonjovi.com

Then they came back for an on-camera soundcheck with 'YOU GIVE LOVE A BAD NAME' (abbreviated...) before Matt Lauer introduced them officially... the band played three songs: YOU GIVE LOVE A BAD NAME, IT'S MY LIFE (which was the winner of The Today Show's Viewers Choice poll with 68% of the votes) and RADIO SAVED MY LIFE TONIGHT.
