Rock legend Jon Bon Jovi on road to recovery after vocal cord surgery

The Grammy winner, known for songs such as “Livin’ on a Prayer”, “It’s My Life” and “You Give Love A Bad Name”, said doctors were able to repair the problem by putting a plastic implant in.

“For the last almost two years now, I’ve been in this rehab getting it back together. I’m getting very close to feeling like myself again,” he added.

In a reference to his set at the MusiCares Person of the Year award ceremony on February 2, Bon Jovi said it was “my first live performance in two years”.

“New record’s done. So now I just want to get back to two and a half hours a night, four nights a week before I’m gonna go out there on the road for real. But I’m confident in my doctor,” he added.
