Live Earth Cancelled After Mumbai Shootings
Nov. 29, 2008 – The Live Earth show scheduled for Sunday December 7th has been cancelled due to the Mumbai shootings. Bon Jovi, Pink Floyd's Roger Waters and Black Eyed Peas singer will.i.am were all set to perform at the charity.

Organizers said they we’re, “shocked and saddened by the tragic events of the last few days” and that everything was cancelled.

Over 200 people were killed when gunmen rushed a hotel, a rail station and a Jewish centre.

The Climate Project India charity was set to benefit from the proceeds of the show. Its aim is to provide solar power to rural Indian homes that don't have electricity.

Bon Jovi Greatest Hits and Live DVD Set for Fall 2009
Nov. 19, 2008 – Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora says the band will be busy for the next while preparing projects that will only see the light of day in late 2009. "We've been filming a documentary and are in the process of mixing a live DVD of last year's Lost Highway concert tour," he told Billboard. There’s also a Greatest Hits package for release next year and some new tunes which Sambora says are being written right now with John Bon Jovi for a new album.

The band last CD ‘Lost Highway’ was a huge hit for Bon Jovi but Sambora is clear that the band wants to move on, "We have to change. We have to do something different," he said. "I don't know what that's going to be. As we get into the writing process and continue on, we'll see what that's going to look like. I think it comes to stylistically what songs you're writing. What kind of music is coming out of you, and what's the mood of those songs. You have to color those little drawings with the right production value and the right music." Triumph, the Dog could not be reached for comment.  – by Chelsie Dickson
