MUSICARES, THE BOSS AND MORE CELEBRATE BON JOVI

New Jersey was in the house 2/2 for MusiCares' 2024 Person of the Year Gala to honor Jon Bon Jovi. Bruce Springsteen, Shania Twain, Jason Isbell, Jelly Roll and many more performed cuts from the chart-topper's oeuvre. Faces were seen and rocked.

Bon Jovi kicked off the annual charity event by introducing The Boss for performances of the former's "Who Says You Can't Go Home" and the latter's "The Promised Land."

The Island artist was presented with his Person of the Year award by New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft, who shared a power table front and center with Springsteen and Sir Paul McCartney.

Among the tributes were Shania Twain's cover of "Bed of Roses," Jason Isbell's "Wanted Dead or Alive," Jelly Roll's "Bad Medicine," Lainey Wilson's "We Weren't Born To Follow" and The War and Treaty's "I'll Be There for You." Bon Jovi closed the evening by inviting many of the featured guests onstage for a group performance of "Livin' on a Prayer."
