Jon Bon Jovi is set to perform at Madison Square Garden on July 7, kicking off the Forever tour. This marks the band’s first tour since the lead singer underwent surgery on his vocal cords in 2022. Jon revealed that one of his vocal cords had atrophied and needed surgery to regain its function. After the procedure, he shared, “The road has been long. It’s been tough. But I persevered. It’s like training for a marathon. Anyone can go for a run. Being able to go the distance is a whole different set of commitment. You have to physically, mentally, and spiritually be ready to do that again.”
Jon Bon Jovi, born John Francis Bongiovi, Jr. on March 2, 1962, in Perth Amboy, New Jersey, changed his name when he began his music career. He formed the band in 1983 with keyboardist David Bryan, bassist Alec John Such, and drummer Tico Torres. Guitarist Richie Sambora joined later. The band released their self-titled debut album in 1984, featuring the hit song “Runaway.” Since then, they have released 16 studio albums. Their 1986 album spent eight weeks at No. 1, solidifying their status as rock legends. The 1988 album, New Jersey, also reached No. 1 and produced five top 10 hits.
