When did Alex Such leave Bon Jovi?

John Such was a long-time figure in the thriving New Jersey music scene that gave birth to Bon Jovi.

“When Jon Bon Jovi phoned me and asked me to join his band many years ago, I quickly recognised how serious he was, and he had a vision that he wanted to get us there,” John Such stated during the Hall of Fame ceremony. “And I am overjoyed to have been a part of that vision.”
