Jon Bon Jovi and his side band The Kings of Suburbia performed a benefit concert for the Parker Family Health Center at the Count Basie Theatre the other night. The center provides health care for people who do not have health insurance can receive proper care.As with previous Kings of Suburbia shows, the set consisted of Bon Jovi songs and plenty of cover songs. The band included Bon Jovi touring guitarist Bobby Bandiera, Lorenza Ponce; another past touring member of Bon Jovi, drummer Rich Scanella and bassist Graham Maby and backing vocalist Laynonne Holmes.
