00:00 You're performing my favorite Bon Jovi song tonight.

00:03 Yeah, Born to be my Baby.

00:04 Nice.

00:05 Tell me your thoughts on the song and how you ended up with that one.

00:09 So I was given that song, my manager said this is the song you're doing and I said great.

00:14 I was not as familiar with that song as I'm sure you're not happy to hear but I wasn't

00:19 as familiar with that song as I was with some of the other Bon Jovi material and it was

00:23 a real great opportunity to dig into that Back in Jersey album and to re-familiarize

00:28 myself with that material and then, you know, kind of step outside of my comfort zone a

00:33 little bit.

00:34 Okay.

00:35 Yeah.

00:36 Great song, I'm sure you're going to kill it.

00:37 I'm going to do my best.

00:38 So you've been nominated for a Grammy, so you've kind of been through all this before.

00:42 What advice would you give for people that are getting their first nomination this year

00:46 and kind of going through the Grammy gauntlet for the first time?

00:50 Man, you know, we're all just out here to have a good time and just, you know, we all

00:55 just love music.

00:56 We got that shared interest.

00:58 So everybody out here has at least one shared interest and it just makes it easy to talk

01:02 to everybody.

01:03 Just have a good time.

01:05 Just be honest and be true and, you know, that's what it's all about.

01:10 What do you have coming up this year?

01:13 So like you said, I've been working on some new music and we're going to be out on the

01:18 road quite a bit this year.

01:20 So it's going to be a really big year.

01:21 A lot of big news to come.

01:23 Some that I can't speak on right now, but as I've been instructed.

01:27 But we got some big stuff coming this year, so keep your ear to the ground.

01:30 We'll be out there.
