The Jov - A little older, perhaps a little wiser.
Worked an event last night for cochlear implants at Lincoln Center. Great cause - lots (er, three) celebrities were there, including unlikely attendees Jay-Z and Russell Simmons. (Who, for some strange reason, was clutching a rosary. I've seen Cribs - isn't he a Buddhist?) There was also a private performance by Jon Bon Jovi. It was Bon Jovi Unplugged - just him, a guitarist and a violin player. As if that wasn't incongruous enough, whenever he spoke it was in a distinctly Southern twang. (Dude, you're from Jersey.) That said, his acoustic version of "It's My Life" might've made me tear up a little. (I'm not saying it did, I'm just saying.)

Dude, it was a benefit for cochlear implants. You'd think Jonny-boy would have the decency to plug in, so that everyone could hear him.
That just made my day.
Sad thing is, I didn't even think about that irony until Dan mentioned it. Damn it, I'm slipping!
