Sending good thoughts to Jon Bon Jovi, who tore a calf muscle while performing at the Meadlowlands Friday night, and gives new meaning to "the show must go on." Video below:
It happens around 49 seconds in:
He continued playing, finishing the set with Livin' on a Prayer. The band had to help him off the stage. And despite being seen on crutches over the weekend, he'll be playing tonight in Ohio and Wednesday in Calgary, Canada.
Update: According to this site, here's what Bon Jovi told the crowd:
My calf muscle just blew out! Whoa!," he said from the stage. "I got another leg. I don't need this one."
The YouTube video shows the 48-year-old singer flexing his foot as he assures the crowd he's OK. "Don't you worry, folks," he said. "I ain't got nowhere to go. I'm old. What can I tell you? But I'm still good-lookin'!"
