Bon Jovi

In November 2015, Bon Jovi took the stage at the iconic Count Basie Theatre, making history with the very first live performance of "Scars On This Guitar." This track, penned for their 2016 album "This House Is Not for Sale," marked an interesting turning point for the band, reflecting their enduring evolution in the rock world. Interestingly, this was during a period of transition for Bon Jovi, as they were navigating the landscape of a new lineup and a refreshed sound post the departure of longtime members. The live recording captures not just the debut of a powerful song but also encapsulates the raw emotion and storytelling that Bon Jovi fans have come to love. This performance was electric, emphasizing the band's connection with their New Jersey roots while forging ahead into a new musical chapter.
