As Bon Jovi prepares for the September release of their next album “This House Is Not For Sale”, Jon Bon Jovi and his wife Dorothea were interviewed by Gayle King on CBS This Morning from their charitable restaurant in New Jersey.
The new record will be the first without founding member and guitarist Richie Sambora. Asked about Sambora’s departure, Bon Jovi said “I haven’t seen him in over three years. He just didn’t show up for work anymore. And that’s the truth of the matter. And, you know, life goes on. You know, being in a rock band is not a life sentence… you have other things in your life that you care to do. But it’s okay, because you share your art as long as you choose to share it.”
He also discusses his (not very) rock and roll lifestyle and the unique business model of his charity restaurant “Soul Kitchen”.
