He owned/owns a team called "the Philadelphia Soul"

He also started a charity called "Philadelphia Soul Charitable Foundation" which is dedicated to bringing about positive change and helping the lives of those in need "one soul at a time." The Philadelphia Soul Charitable Foundation exists to combat issues that force families and individuals into economic despair with programs and partnerships targeted at breaking the cycle of poverty and homelessness. As a result of his efforts, Jon Bon Jovi and his foundation were recently honored at the 2008 Billboard Touring Awards with the Humanitarian Award, which recognizes the philanthropic efforts of a touring professional.

Great articles Mich...too bad he doesn't belong at fest, has no soul and is a washed out middle-aged rocker that contributes very little to the music industry and to humanity in general. Guess Bruce jumped the shark too by getting onstage with someone so vile.

Billboard
"Over a pulsing crescendo of acoustic guitars, piano and strings, Bon Jovi delivers his most soulful vocal in years..." April 2007

See, I said it was believable. That a professional music publication describes his music as soulful means I don't win a cold one. Seriously. Good find.

Hey, he bumped off Mr. Soul, replaced the Queen of Soul, and is the hand-picked face of the 40th anniversary of Jazz Fest--don't you think he deserves to have every thread drift to him? You think it's bad now, just wait. I'm aiming for a something akin to the restaurant scene in Being John Malkovich.

Bon Jovi may be many things, including, reportedly, soulful; one thing he is not is poor.

He is purchasing The Praline Connection to rectify that.

The soul to which I was referring can't be bought, but it can be sold, if that makes any sense. In any event, your Billboard quote proved it to be true.

Ok, on to my next pick. I'm gonna be a little less radical with this one: William Shatner is the TBA for second Sunday.
