"Bon Jovi": When We Were Beautiful

Synopsis

After 25 years together, Bon Jovi is more popular than ever. But for all their hits and sold-out concerts, fans have been offered few glimpses of the band members up close and personal. To commemorate its 25th anniversary, the musicians gave filmmaker and photographer Phil Griffin unprecedented access to their lives, onstage and off, during the 2008 Lost Highway tour. This insider's portrait of one of America's best-loved rock bands is the subject of a major documentary and this extraordinary book. You think you know Bon Jovi, but you don't until you open this book. With gorgeous, exclusive photographs and revealing text from the band members themselves, "Bon Jovi: When We Were Beautiful" captures Jon, Richie, Dave, and Tico at both intimate moments and under the limelight in all aspects of their lives, from the private moments backstage, on the road, or at home, to their stunning and unforgettable live performances under the limelight. Stretching back to the early days in Jersey, through successes ad struggles, and up to the 2008 Lost Highway tour - the highest-grossing rock tour of that year - the book offers fans a dazzling portrait of rock stars on the road as they reflect on their 25 years as a band of brothers.
