JON BON JOVI has issued the following message:

"Happy Ho-Ho-Ho. Merry Holidays. It's that time again, the kids are so easily manipulated by threats of the dreaded call to Santa. I have never seen more vegetables disappearing from plates as I have in the last couple of weeks, beds are getting made, teeth are getting brushed, they are going to bed all alone without an hour long scene that has Oscar potential, etc. You know the drill, it is second only to the first day of school which is the other glorious silent holiday for parental figures.

These days have been trying for many of us with the effects of the economy trickling down to anyone and everyone. President Elect Obama better be a Superman or at least surround himself with all the king's horses and all the king's men. The country is in bad shape. We wanted change and we will all be called upon to help implement it. I for one am ready.

On the home front since the tour ended, the Soul won the Arena Bowl in New Orleans. It was sweet. We're waiting on the rings. They too are sweet. I spent August getting fat and lazy, not wanting to even think about work. It lasted until September when that knock came to my door and to my head. It said 'write you fool. Richie is bored and you are not the stay at home kind of Dad as all of the neighbors are.' So, I went off to Los Angeles and we started. As of now we're 12 songs into it. I'm very pleased. In case you're wondering, it's a rock record. A big loud one. John Shanks (Lost Highway) is set to produce again and we'll begin the demo process right after I ship the reindeer and sleigh back to the attic, I mean North Pole. In all honesty, I just wanted to drop you a note to wish you and yours a happy healthy holiday. I hope you really do find what you're looking for underneath the tree. It doesn't have to cost a thing. It's free. It is a smile. Thanks for bringing me one.

See you in 09. JBJ"
