Few musical acts have enjoyed the success and the long run of the

legendary band Bon Jovi and a revealing new documentary series

premiering tonight on Hulu tracks the highs and the lows of the Grammy Award winning bands

four decades together. Recently Jeff Bennett spoke with frontman John Bon Jovi

about thank you good night, the Bon Jovi story for our arts and culture series canvas.

John Bon Jovi welcome to the news hour thank you Jeff happy to be here it's

great to have you here this docueries is a real honest look at the band's triumphs, it's setbacks.

What has this experience been like, reliving your past and then considering what it all means for your future?

It was emotional when we saw a rough

cut because a lot of life was lived in these last 40 years. Why share so much and why

share it now? Well 40 is the milestone.

You know, even if it's only the first 40,

40 years is a long time to have been making music

as we have.

So I wanted to mark this milestone.

We were archiving everything that I didn't realize, what a hoarder I have become.

So it made it easy for the storytelling. And then about this vocal surgery was not part of the plan but this is a couple years in the making this film

so that just happened and not afraid to show emotion it's just that we typically hadn't had the platform for it.

To have led one of the world's most successful bands,

to have a 40-year run doing that.

That doesn't happen by accident.

What has it required of you?
