Please admit it: you have a soft spot for Bon Jovi

We took an informal poll here at the offices of The Key in which we asked folks how they felt about Bon Jovi, who play this evening at the Wells Fargo Center. Opinions ranged from “great for karaoke,” and “Slippery When Wet (the band’s debut) is a hard rock classic,” to “Why?,” “I liked his football team (the Philadelphia Soul, which he no longer owns), and “I’d rather listen to Whitesnake.” All that said, you can’t deny the classic songs, some of which were massive hits including “You Give Love A Bad Name,” “Livin’ On A Prayer,” and “Always,” one of Bon Jovi’s most earnest hyper love ballads. Below, a couple of reasons why we have a soft spot for Bon Jovi.

Bon Jovi perform at 7:30 p.m. tonight at the Wells Fargo Center. Doors open at 6:30PM. Tickets to the all-ages show are $16.50 – $146.50
