Default Could A Fan Get To Interview JBJ? (If so, what would YOU ask?)

I follow @BonJoviTalk on Twitter and was intrigued by the Tweet I've posted below. Is it possible for a fan (account) to get to interview Jon? I initially thought no, but with enough people asking for it, why shouldn't it be granted? Have a read of what was posted:


Fan Interview With JBJ (@BonJoviTalk)

I put a tweet/poll up on Twitter asking fans if they would like to see a fan interview JBJ. It was no surprise that the majority of fans clicked YES on this poll. The reason I put this poll up was to see just how many fans want different questions in an interview. These days, most interviews with JBJ are the same questions and unfortunately, the same answers. This isn't a dig at anybody, it's just the truth. I, as a fan, would LOVE to ask JBJ some questions. This isn't the opportunity for me to bash Bon Jovi because I don't agree with anybody doing that. We all have our opinions but I'd be respectful with what I'd ask. So much so, that I'd let someone close to the band see the questions I/we would like to ask. I ask for 10 mins or so with JBJ. This would be different and I'm sure JBJ would enjoy having some different questions asked to him. I have contacted Matt Bongiovi and his reply was "unlikely and not my department". I get that this is a big ask, a fan asking something like this. But with the band being in my home country in two weeks, this would be a great opportunity. All I ask is that fans can Tweet this so hopefully JBJ can see this and agree to it. 10-15 mins, that is all. I would ask fans to participate in some questions they'd love to ask too. We are a fanbase and it'd be great PR for the band too, in my opinion. Please share and tag @BonJovi on Twitter/Facebook etc......I appreciate it, guys.



So, basically they are suggesting/hoping if enough people Tweet or post requesting it, maybe someone within the BJ camp may realise a fan interviewing Jon is actually a great PR opportunity. (Think "Jon Bon Jovi gives back to fans" headline/spin)

As stated, the questions would be vetted so nothing juicy like vocal issues, Shanks' production etc would be asked, but there's so many questions Jon could be asked that would be interesting, new and maybe offer an insight into the bands music.

@BonJoviTalk is a really decent account. Well worth a follow if you don't already. I think what they are suggesting is worth getting behind.

I'd love to know what songs Jon wishes HAD made albums and which on reflection, he would omit.

Thoughts on any of the above, and what (non controversial) questions would you ask JBJ if you could?
