   Joseph Nebus to All   
   11 October 2007 - Jon Bon Jovi, God Talk   
   12 Oct 07 23:37:47   
   
   From: nebusj-@-rpi-.edu   
      
   Jon Bon Jovi:   
   	- He sold a lot of records and wants to host Saturday Night   
   Live, which scares many.   
   	   
   	- Jovi went in with sketch ideas, per Conan's suggestion.  Fifty   
   ideas; none of them were liked.  Example: The law firm of Bono, (Sonny)   
   Bono, and Bon Jovi.  They thought it was genius, and nobody wrote it.   
   	   
   	- Maybe a bad Blues Brothers bit where they get heckled, with   
   him and Dan Aykroyd?  Great idea, great idea, no.   
   	   
   	- So far they have a tutu and a lot of 80s hairstyles.   
   	   
   	- Jovi's wife is really cool, and they've been married 18 or 19   
   years.  Some in his law firm had long-lasting marriages.  He'll pitch   
   Bono, Bono, and Bon Jovi until someone does it.   
   	   
   	- What's going on with Richie Sambora?  He's available, he's   
   free, he's interviewing girls.  He was in a place where Lindsay Lohan   
   was.  So he'll start the rumor he and Lindsay Lohan are dating.   
      
   	- Who's that other guy in Bon Jovi?  The keyboard player.  David   
   Bryan.  He had to think it out.  Same with the keyboard player in the   
   Max Weinberg 7.   
   	   
   	- A few years ago he did something requiring insane confidence:   
   he asked them to send Triumph over to watch them.  And they let Conan   
   air it.   
   	   
   	- Triumph doesn't play fair as he edits out the good shots.  But   
   he has some classics, like, about Sambora, ``He dated Cher when she was   
   only in her 60s.''  They wanted to bring Triumph to Europe, but NBC   
   wouldn't pay for a puppet to go to Europe.  Triumph can't fly coach;   
   Conan's afraid of him.   
   	   
   	- Clip: Let's go down memory lane.  There's your first album and   
   there's Jon on the cover.  Look at you.  That's just before Eddie Murphy   
   drove by and picked you up.  Richie Samboca: You're married to Heather   
   Locklear, yes?  He's a fan.  Footage of him rubbing against her arm.   
   ``In the 80s, did Richie feather his pubes?''  To Bon Jovi: So you're   
   acting now, you're in a vampire movie.  Finally a role that requires you   
   to suck!   
      
      
   God Talks To Conan:   
   	- He has a commandment for Conan, something extremely important.   
    ``Give me ... a haircut!  A haircut, nothing major, just a trim!''  No   
   sacrificing his first born or anything, just, a haircut.  He's got a lot   
   of hair.   
   	   
   	- God knows Conan's not a real barber.  He's hoping to look more   
   like Lorenzo Lamas?  He's not expecting miracles, but ...   
   	   
   	- Good guests lately?  Marky Mark.  Remember that song 'I'm   
   feeling good vibrations'?  Gotta love the Funky Bunch.  You *do*.   
   	   
   	- Played Halo 3 yet?  No; Conan hasn't got any idea what God is   
   talking about.   
   	   
   	- No blow dry?  Sweet -- look out ladies, here comes Mike!  God   
   is a bit intimidating a name when he goes out; he uses 'Mike' for the   
   ladies.   
   	   
   	- ``See you later?'' Nice try; it's cubicle time.  God sticks   
   his fingers into the screen in a nice use of these sorts of effects.
