This What’s Wrong With covers one of the giants of 80’s rock and a band I’ve loved for many years, Bon Jovi. We talk about how they maintained relevance during a time when bands from the 80’s fell off the radar, their talent at writing big hooks and memorable ballads, and some swell personality traits of Jon Bon Jovi. And you get to see my first usage of some plugins I got for Final Cut!

Also note that when I say just “Jovi”, that’s referring to the band as a whole, not just Jon.
