Bon Jovi sued over business deal Associated Press 1/28/2009

PHILADELPHIA -- The former sales manager for the Philadelphia Soul arena football team is suing club owner Jon Bon Jovi and his partners for nearly $125,000 he says he's owed.

Joseph Krause of Jenkintown alleges that rock singer Bon Jovi and other team officials told employees they would receive two weeks of severance pay. The Arena Football League is canceling the 2009 season as it creates a better business model for tough economic times.

Krause says he is owed commissions of more than $83,000 for the 2008 season and more than $41,000 for the canceled 2009 season.

Interim general manager Paul Korzilius, when reached by KYW-AM, declined to comment because of the pending lawsuit.

Bon Jovi and the others named in the suit didn't respond to requests for comment.

I think it is reasonable to expect a left-winger like Jon Bon-Jovi to be a deadbeat on his debts just like other Obama supporters like Geithner and Daschle are deadbeats on their IRS debts.

Have no worries John Francis Bongiovi, Jr., I'm sure "O" will bail you out, you poor thing.

Seriously.... should reinstate debtor's prisons... Bongiovi would be a good test case.

Bon Jovi’s music is absolute fluff. He should be ashamed of himself for calling it rock, it is elevator music.
