Question

Laszlo Sarkozy
Hi Cathy,

I have come across your articles on the net through a friend and I too am a fan of Jon,Richie,David and Tico

They obviously would not remember me,but i met them back in my hometown of Vancouver B.C. in their early days when they were recording with Bruce Fairbairn and Bob Rock.Our conversations inspired me to travel,write and continue on my own musical journey.

I am presently living in Spain over the winters,recording and playing live shows on the Island of Tenerife and it's numerous  hotels/festivals etc.

My site is www.myspace.com/laszlosarkozyband

I hope you have the chance to check it out and perhaps pass it on to any contacts you may have in the industry.

Kind Regards,Laszlo

Answer
Hello Laszlo

Thanks for contacting me.

I appreciate you sharing your music with me and thank you for sharing your Bon Jovi moment from Vancouver.  No doubt that was a special time in your life and how wonderful you felt inspired to embark on your own musical journey.

I hope life in Spain is treating you well and you are enjoying all that you do.  Bon Jovi are playing in Madrid on June 4 at the Rock in Rio Festival so perhaps you might be able to go along and enjoy an amazing show.

Thanks again Laszlo, take care.

Regards
Cathy

Expertise

I have been a Bon Jovi follower/admirer for twenty plus years and I am a complete music lover. I believe I have a broad minded insight into the band, as I am Australian born, New York based and the observations made in regards to the differences and similarities with fans, the charts, the media attitude and more continues to be very interesting for me. I believe that each band member brings their own magic to the BJ table and collectively they give the fans and the music world something unique and special. In this, I always look at the band as equal parts of the equation. I have also worked for a record company and have been involved in artist promotion. The behind-the-scenes activity is both fascinating and challenging at times, and there is always something to be learnt!

Experience

Long time Bon Jovi devotee with a genuine interest in the band and their music. However, I cannot provide in depth answers relating to chords and musical arrangements and song format, etc. As a non-musician I know the basics of instruments used by the band but nothing too detailed. I also know the basics in terms of chart positioning, managment and official fan club information, road crew and the like. And I can help in regards to band lyrics and their extensive discography.
