Bon Jovi's meteoric rise from small town New Jersey to international superstardom is the stuff legends are made of. Now, former Bon Jovi tour manager, Richard Bozzett guides us through his years on the road with one of the world's most iconic bands, with stories Bon Jovi hoped to keep under wraps. "Jon Bon Jovi has publicly condemned the book and has criticized me in the media because I know a lot about Jon and the band that he would prefer to leave in his past." From the early days with the unknown boys from Sayreville, to huge worldwide tours, Bozzett takes us on his own guided tour through Bon Jovi's unrevealed early years and rise as only he can tell it, including: - Rare stories and photographs of the band's life of excess on the road.
- Details of the band's racy, never-published photo shoot.
- The secret of the drug ring funding the band's management behind-the-scenes.
- A look at two childhood friends traveling the same road as tour managers, both working for drug-funded Mcghee Entertainment, one with Bon Jovi and the other with Motley Crue. After both left the business, one returned to a normal life and the other couldn't.
