Bon Jovi ... Inside Out ... WTF?!

[BeVonk!]

What happened to this band?! Their latest album Inside Out sounds like a group of old drunks doing a karaoke impersonation of Bon Jovi. Terrible. Shocked. Used to be a fan.

This sounds disappointing I haven't heard it yet, but I'm a huge Bon Jovi fan.

they are a group of old drunks and druggies. they used to use drugs etc in their hey day. they probably clean now and can't write without their usual fill of the "medication".

A lot of those must be getting money from royalties for past glory ... or selling your name to headphone manufacturers, or similar.

I'm surprised Bon Jovi is still doing so well. Really not impressed with their latest effort. Will be okay on cheap earphones but once you listen to it with greater sound definition they sound like they lost it ... not the passion in their voices one got used to. Sounds like old men trying their best to sound younger.

I see that Dr Dre made his money from his luxury headphone line, ‘Beats By Dr. Dre'.
Roger Waters has been touring "The Wall" for a couple of years.
