Jon Bon Jovi and the Kings of Suburbia tonight at Hard Rock Live

So, in preparation for Jon's big debut as a solo artist at the Hard Rock Live tonight. I found this trivia app from Quizicals. I figured I would easily score, like, 99 percent. But no!

Yes, there are questions that everyone and their Aunt Peg knows, such as:

What does Gina dream of?
Quitting her job
Making it through
Being rich
Running away

And:

What does Tommy whisper to Gina when she cries through the night?
"Baby it's okay"
"We'll get through this"
"Gina, don't cry"
"I love you"

BUT THEN, there are trick questions like:

Jon Bon Jovi was born in what New Jersey city?
Parlin
Sayreville
Perth Amboy
Metuchen

(It's Perth Amboy! Can you believe it?!)

And:

"Out on the dark Side of town, another rumbles' gone down, and life on the high side isn't what this boy's about": These lyrics are from:
The Hardest Part is the Night
King of the Mountain
Always Run to You
The Price of Love

And questions that could go either way, like:

Jon Bon Jovi's first local band, which they formed in high school, was called
The New Jersey Kids
Raze
Starz
Boys Are Back in Town

And:

Lay Your Hands on
Her
Me
Yourself
Him
