Jason Isbell performed a guitar solo of the song 'Wanted Dead or Alive' at a tribute event for Jon Bon Jovi. The performance was impressive and showcased Isbell's skills on the guitar.
Joseph Hudak observed Jason Isbell's appearance and immediately knew which song he was going to perform at the MusiCares tribute to Jon Bon Jovi in Los Angeles. Isbell was wearing a wide-brimmed hat and a long coat, and was holding a double-neck guitar, giving away that he would be playing "Wanted Dead or Alive."
Isbell admitted on Instagram that it was clear which Bon Jovi song he performed just by looking at a picture he posted on Saturday.

Isbell may have looked more like Richie Sambora than JBJ, but he performed passionately, immersing himself in the lyrics about experiencing a variety of faces and rocking them all sincerely. Isbell is known for his strong vocals, but it was the impressive guitar solo he performed that made his rendition of "Dead or Alive" reminiscent of the Eighties era.
Jon Bon Jovi received the MusiCares Person of the Year award, joining previous recipients such as Joni Mitchell, Lionel Richie, Dolly Parton, and Bruce Springsteen. Despite mourning the recent loss of his mother, Springsteen, another iconic figure from New Jersey, was also present at the event. Both musicians took the stage together to perform a collaborative rendition of Bon Jovi's country crossover hit "Who Says You Can't Go Home" and Springsteen's "The Promised Land."
