Jon Bon Jovi and his band performed their first full concert in over three years on Saturday night in Nashville. The show was part of an exclusive event organized by Runaway Tours at the Marathon Music Works venue. The concert featured a 17-song set that included classic hits like “Livin’ on a Prayer,” “Wanted Dead or Alive,” and “It’s My Life.” The band also played “Beautiful Drug” from their 2020 album and closed the show with “I’ll Be There for You.”
Jon Bon Jovi has been dealing with vocal cord issues in recent years and underwent surgery for an atrophied vocal cord.

In February 2024, he expressed his frustration, saying, “I’m working hard and I’m feeling better every day, and it’s been years since Bon Jovi’s last full gig and it has sucked!”
The event was highly exclusive, with ticket prices reportedly starting at $2,000. Attendees had to adhere to a strict no-phone policy, which meant no fan-filmed footage has surfaced online.
Runaway Tours shared a photo of Jon Bon Jovi smiling at the end of the concert and thanked the band for their “outstanding and unforgettable performance.” One attendee described the event as a “privilege” and praised Jon Bon Jovi’s “comeback, talent, vulnerability, and nostalgia.”
Fans are now hopeful that this concert marks the beginning of a full tour and a significant comeback for Jon Bon Jovi and his band after years of vocal struggles and limited performances.
