Dick Clark will be remembered as a national treasure and an icon. His memory is being eulogized by many today because he was many things to many people. To me, Mr. Clark was a friend. He supported our band right from our first single, "Runaway," in 1984.
I will never forget driving to the set of American Bandstand and performing that song on that Saturday morning. I was young and just getting started; being interviewed by THE Dick Clark made me feel very special that day. That was the first of many memorable "career" moments for us that he was a part of.
From the American Music Awards to the Golden Globes to the MTV awards, when he, as producer of the show, allowed Richie Sambora and me the opportunity to perform 2 songs acoustically. He was loyal, truthful and insightful. He was and will remain one of the greats...JBJ
