to do that,

find out who we are.

he had beautiful blue eyes.

kind of was attracted to him.

and the drive that he had.

out in front of the hotel of the band.
150
00:06:47,699 --> 00:06:49,368
And he said, "Let's go to Vegas."
151
00:06:50,035 --> 00:06:51,537
I finally needed a higher high.
152
00:06:51,620 --> 00:06:54,248

"Let's, let's elope tonight.

about, you know,
160

like, "Oh, my God,
if you tell everybody,
161

then it's gonna turn away all the chicks."

anymore 'cause you're married.

it's gonna hurt the career.

00:16:19,396 --> 00:16:20,772
tomorrow morning,
get this going, alright?
344
00:16:21,315 --> 00:16:23,775
Jon Bon Jovi provides both a fresh face
345
00:16:23,859 --> 00:16:25,903
and a fresh sensibility
in the movies today.
346
00:16:25,986 --> 00:16:28,488
[♪ pensive music playing]
347
00:16:29,072 --> 00:16:33,660
[Jon] So my initial foray,
truthfully was, "This is intriguing."
348
00:16:34,077 --> 00:16:36,079
It's a way to continue in the arts,
349
00:16:36,163 --> 00:16:38,749
but I was so green that I went to the set
350
00:16:38,832 --> 00:16:41,835
and take one, take two, take three,
and I went over to the director,
351
00:16:41,919 --> 00:16:44,505
and I said, "I'm sorry
that it's taken three takes.
352
00:16:44,588 --> 00:16:47,132
Uh, I'll be happy
to pay for the film."
353
00:16:47,216 --> 00:16:48,550
And he looked at me like I was crazy.
354
00:16:48,634 --> 00:16:50,719
And he said,
"It's how you make movies,
355
00:16:50,802 --> 00:16:52,346
you know, you do
more than one take."
356
00:16:52,804 --> 00:16:54,056
But I didn't know.

many rock stars

-And, and you don't sing in these films?
-No.
360
00:17:01,438 --> 00:17:02,731
Do you have any role models?

[Jon] Frank Sinatra.
362
00:17:04,233 --> 00:17:05,442
[Doc] He wanted
to be an actor
363
00:17:06,360 --> 00:17:09,821
because he saw this,
and I never got it.
364
00:17:09,905 --> 00:17:11,782
Hi, I'm Seth.
365
00:17:12,866 --> 00:17:14,701
Oh, h-hi.
366

in his acting career at all.

I told him it a million times,
[laughs]
368
00:17:21,959 --> 00:17:26,713
which probably was a,
a non-starter for him.
369
00:17:28,841 --> 00:17:30,217
[Jon]
We had had a falling out.
370
00:17:31,343 --> 00:17:32,886
I was at one
of these award shows,
371
00:17:32,970 --> 00:17:34,555
and I'm in the back
of a limousine
372
00:17:34,638 --> 00:17:36,640
with him and his wife
and me and mine.
373
00:17:36,723 --> 00:17:40,227
And some words were said, and I said,
you know, "I want to do movies
374
00:17:40,310 --> 00:17:42,604
and I wanna write more soundtracks,
and this is easy."
375
00:17:42,688 --> 00:17:45,065
And Doc,
he was adamant about,
376
00:17:45,566 --> 00:17:47,192
"You're in a rock band, go do that."
377
00:17:47,276 --> 00:17:50,112
And something was said
to the effect of,
378
00:17:50,195 --> 00:17:52,155
you know, "If you want
to go do it, you should go do it."
379
00:17:52,239 --> 00:17:53,740
I said, "Okay, I will."

[♪ somber music playing]
381
00:17:56,201 --> 00:17:59,329

of things that didn't happen.

Just at the time, wasn't, wasn't gelling.

Yeah.
390

Okay, well,
I just thought, you know,
391
00:18:24,104 --> 00:18:26,523
"Hey, fuck me, I just wanna know
when we're gonna go on."
392
00:18:26,940 --> 00:18:30,068
[Jon] There was a lot
of unexplained animus,
393
00:18:30,152 --> 00:18:32,571
you know, there was like,
"Well, why do you hate me?
394
00:18:32,654 --> 00:18:33,655

And, um, I let him go.

Jon, early on,
398
00:18:44,166 --> 00:18:45,584
I think saw
399
00:18:46,752 --> 00:18:50,088
things in a much bigger picture
than anybody else did.

[Desmond Child] When you have
a manager that's that strong,
403
00:19:04,102 --> 00:19:05,437
you're always a child,
404
00:19:05,896 --> 00:19:08,148
because you leave it up to,
"Oh, talk to my manager."
405
00:19:08,565 --> 00:19:11,276
"Oh, he can make the decision," or she,
406
00:19:11,777 --> 00:19:15,155
and then, eventually,
you lose control of your life.
407
00:19:16,615 --> 00:19:20,035
[Doc] I should have
been able to rectify that.
408
00:19:20,118 --> 00:19:25,082
And maybe I wasn't feeling
like I wanted to at the time,
409
00:19:25,165 --> 00:19:28,460
which is one of those
learning life lessons.
410
00:19:29,044 --> 00:19:32,339
[Jon] It was those things that I realized
I gotta have somebody

00:19:42,474 --> 00:19:44,476
I said, "What if we
just do it ourselves?
417
00:19:44,560 --> 00:19:47,604
You know, what if I start
Bon Jovi management?"
418
00:19:47,688 --> 00:19:48,772
At the Argentinean?
419
00:19:48,856 --> 00:19:50,816
[Jon] And so we,
we started BJM,
420
00:19:50,899 --> 00:19:53,443
with Paul Korzilius running it
on a day-to-day basis
421
00:19:53,527 --> 00:19:56,405
and didn't need a manager.
422
00:19:56,488 --> 00:19:59,032
But one of the main tenets
of Bon Jovi management
423
00:19:59,116 --> 00:20:01,577
was that this is not about
the commission.
424
00:20:01,660 --> 00:20:04,454
It's not about getting as much money
out of this as possible.
425
00:20:04,538 --> 00:20:07,249
It's about protecting us as people first.
426
00:20:08,876 --> 00:20:11,837
[Jon]
Paul Korzilius is the glue.
427
00:20:12,296 --> 00:20:15,966
He's a walking encyclopedia
of everything Bon Jovi.
428
00:20:16,049 --> 00:20:18,260
In the immortal words of Paul Korzilius,
429
00:20:18,343 --> 00:20:19,636
our road manager,
430
00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:21,263
"We made it to the dance."
431
00:20:21,597 --> 00:20:23,557
We were A and R people in ourselves.
432
00:20:23,807 --> 00:20:26,435
And Jon was a,
a good businessman.
433
00:20:26,518 --> 00:20:28,562
So was I, at the time, you know?
434
00:20:28,937 --> 00:20:33,192
We were always involved
in business decisions,
435

everything,
436
00:20:35,444 --> 00:20:36,486
you name it.
437
00:20:36,570 --> 00:20:37,779
Also, it was a big percentage
438
00:20:37,863 --> 00:20:39,239
of money we didn't have to pay out,
439
00:20:40,073 --> 00:20:43,076
which was advantageous
to everybody in the band.
440
00:20:43,493 --> 00:20:47,831
[Jon] So I'm probably 28,
29 years old,
441

where I'm-I'm now, you know,

"Can I stay home another day
