There is not much that Bon Jovi hasn't accomplished in its career, but Jon Bon Jovi is pretty excited about being in Germany for the celebration marking the fall of the Berlin Wall. The group is currently slated to be the only entertainment act at the ceremony on November 9, performing the new single "We Weren't Born to Follow" from the album The Circle. Jon Bon Jovi told Billboard.com that he "wrote a fan letter, 'to whom it may concern,' stating about how we've had such a relationship with Germany for all these years and how relevant the song is to the situation and how I was there chipping away a piece of the wall 20 years ago when it came down." The German government responded by inviting the band to play at the ceremony. "It's a pretty big deal," Bon Jovi stated.
The Circle comes out on November 10 and Bon Jovi is so gearing up for its "Artists in Residence" partnership with NBC, which will kick off with a November 4 Today show interview from London. The group also will appear on the show via outdoor plaza performances on November 11 and 25, and an in-studio interview on November 18. They also will be on NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams, an episode of Bravo's Inside the Actor's Studio, and they'll be part of NBC's The More You Know public service campaign.
Meanwhile, the first ever Bon Jovi book, When We Were Beautiful, hits stores today. The book offers unprecedented insights into the members’ lives on stage, on the road, and at home, as well as intimate reflections on the highs and lows of their 25 years together. The book also houses exclusive photographs and text from Jon, Richie Sambora, David Bryan and Tico Torres themselves.
Last but not least, keep an ear out for FMQB Productions' Bon Jovi radio special, Inside Bon Jovi: The Circle, hosted by Scott Shannon. The one-hour radio special will explore the making of The Circle and will world premiere songs from the album. It will air on radio stations nationwide starting November 6.
