Richie Sambora (born Richard Stephen Sambora on July 11, 1959 in Woodbridge, New Jersey) is best known for having been the lead guitarist for Bon Jovi from 1983 to his departure from the band in 2013. During his time in Bon Jovi he handled harmony and background vocals and collaborated with frontman Jon Bon Jovi in writing most of the band's songs.
Bands pulling out of the festival a multitude of timetable changes and a flurry of what promoter AJ Maddah has referred to as 'pissing contests' between bands have all contributed to an impression of a festival in trouble.
Bon Jovi fans could be forgiven a flutter of excitement upon hearing the band's former guitarist, Richie Sambora, had performed alongside a pouting prima donna with ridiculous hair at last
Coming into the venue I had previously heard that there was a competition for local talent to showcase songs for Richie Sambora, and the best one would fill the supporting slot for the evening.
