Can you name this Jersey son?
Answer Bon Jovi
Legendary hair metal rocker Jon Bon Jovi graduated in 1980 from Sayreville War Memorial High School in Parlin, New Jersey. That same year, he landed his first professional recording gig, thanks to a cousin who owned a studio in NYC. Was it a power ballad a la "Never Say Goodbye"? A monster anthem like "Blaze of Glory"? Well, no. It was "R2-D2 We Wish You a Merry Christmas" for an upcoming holiday record, Christmas in the Stars: The Star Wars Album. Hey, we've all got to start somewhere!
