<div><p>Thirty years is a long time for anyone to stay together, much less an entire band. So after over 3 decades of making music is Bon Jovi about to split up? According to the rock legend they were about to do just that, until he opened a magazine and saw a simple ad.</p><div><figure><amp-img src="https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/sadbonjovi-3.jpg" srcset="https://www.shared.com/content/images/2017/03/sadbonjovi-3_GH_content_550px.jpg 550w" sizes="89vw" title="Bon Jovi" alt="Bon Jovi" height="9" width="16" layout="responsive"></amp-img><figcaption class="op-vertical-center"><cite>RockSubculture</cite></figcaption></figure></div><p>"I was thumbing through a magazine questioning the future of the band...and I came upon this picture of this stone house with deep roots; that was it.

Many people have never known a world with out Bon Jovi. Are we Livin' On A Prayer that we'll always have Bon Jovi? Maybe, but the band is still making music and just released a new album last year. They still tour and perform to sold-out venues, but if they're coming to your town you might want to scoop up tickets - they may not be around forever.</p><p></p></div>
