Jon Bon Jovi Headlines Hillary Clinton Event In New Jersey June 29!



The Clinton campaign has announced that Hillary Clinton will be in New Jersey on June 29 for an event hosted by Dorothea and Jon Bon Jovi.

The event includes a “Special Performance by Jon Bon Jovi.”

According to the site, donors who contribute $2,700 get premium seating, and those who donate $1,000 get open seating. The website also provides the opportunity for a donor to give a different amount, but it is unclear whether a donor can get into the event for less than $1000.

For more information or tickets, visit the Hillary Clinton website.

Visit the HillaryMojo calendar for more information about Hillary Clinton events.

Thanks Skinner and Bon Jovi!

Bon Jovi Opens Charitable Pay-What-You-Can Restaurant In NJ



10/20/11

RED BANK, N.J. -- In three decades as one of the world's biggest rock stars, Jon Bon Jovi has eaten in some of the world's best restaurants, savoring the best food the planet has to offer.
Yet there's no place he'd rather have dinner than The Soul Kitchen, a "pay-what-you-can" restaurant he and his wife Dorothea established in a former auto body shop near the Red Bank train station in central New Jersey.

The restaurant provides gourmet-quality meals to the hungry while enabling them to volunteer on community projects in return without the stigma of visiting a soup kitchen. Paying customers are encouraged to leave whatever they want in the envelopes on each table, where the menus never list a price.

The restaurant is the latest undertaking by the New Jersey rocker's Jon Bon Jovi Soul Foundation, which has built 260 homes for low-income residents in recent years...

How important is rolling up his sleeves and working in the restaurant to him?

"Last Friday, I was at the White House, serving on the Council for Community Solutions, got on a train, changed in the bathroom and got here in time to wash dishes Friday night," he said. "I'm the dishwasher, for real. I can't cook a lick."


I lost the original link with the text, but the menu sounded great. No junk food, very good, healthy food.

Cha, Jon Bon Jovi has reportedly been a vegan for many years. And was active for Gore, Clinton, Kerry and Obama both times. It fits that he would back Hillary. And Bill Clinton went vegan as well.

the reminder and the info, freshwest!

"Last Friday, I was at the White House, serving on the Council for Community Solutions, got on a train, changed in the bathroom and got here in time to wash dishes Friday night," he said. "I'm the dishwasher, for real. I can't cook a lick."

I love this.. I didn't know he was Vegan, though.. I use to cook in Vegan and Vegetarian cafes and restaurants!

Thank you for all the Vids of his music.. I will listen throughout the night!
