JBJ T-Shirt Sayings
Came across this in my google alerts, and in my email (thanks Q!) and it totally made me laugh:
Throughout the years, Jon Bon Jovi has worn some funny, enlightening t-shirts: "Bounce on this" or "Tell your Mom I said hi," for example. For the upcoming Live 2011 leg of the Circle Tour, perhaps Jon could wear t-shirts with these sayings:
I make old age look good! (Let's face it: he is approaching 50.)
Who says you can't go home with me? (Oh wait. Wrong person. That's one that Richie Sambora could wear.)
You may not recognize me without my cape. (He does it all: family man, rock star, businessman, philanthropist. He definitely must have the superpowers of unlimited energy and lack of the need for sleep.)
I'm Ronnie Kray, and I own this place! (This one will be understood by only the most diehard of fans. For the rest of you, see Michael Francis' infamous book Star Man: The Right Hand Man of Rock and Roll, page 164.)
Eye contact is over-rated. (He of the never-leave-home-without-your-sunglasses philosophy of life.)
You're fired! (Donald Trump has nothing on Jon Bon Jovi, the originator of these words. Just ask Doc McGhee. Or Alec Such. Or . . .)
Plays well with others. (See next note.)
Does not play well with others. (Due to the dichotomous nature of his personality, he needs both. He can choose accordingly depending on his mood that day.)
I'm like fine wine. (See first note.)
American Idol (As he himself says in concert, "The only American Idol you need is standing right here!")
I'm taking my son to the show in March. I'm trying to convince my mom that she needs to come too. I have the t-shirts all planned out :)
HATHLET: My mom says 'hi' back.Then the back they'd say "Three generations of Bon Jovi fans can't be wrong" with the date of the show. Mom's not sure she wants to spend the $$ to go -- not at Christmastime.
HATH: Hi! My mom says 'hi' back, too.
HATHMOM: Hi!
What T-shirt sayings do you think Jon would wear? What would you put on a shirt to wear to a show?

Due to a random joke during the last UK elections, my friends and I made up t-shirts saying "Richie for Prime Minister!" and we each had a Cabinet position like Home Secretary, Minister etc. On the sleeve it had our Party Political Motto
"Dude, a Cactus! Excellent!"
My personal favourite will always be one I made for myself in 2000 - it said "Richie for President. Can I be Monica?"
The evil grin that JBJ gave me when he read it made it worthwhile LOL
as for a Tshirt for Jon himself - I'm thinking "Don't touch the hair" or maybe "I'm the one your mother warned you about..."
Richie - however - should have a Tshirt that just says "Epitome of desirable".
I have had the same shirt since HAND that says "Richie Who Says You Can't Go Home with me?"
When I was trying to come up with a new sign to take to the HAND shows my then 9 year old daughter suggested "who says you can't go home with me?" I busted out laughing and made the sign.
