Bon Jovi Rocks Soldiers & Sailors Hall During Clinton Campaign Concert

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- Rock star Jon Bon Jovi did what he does best at Soldiers and Sailors Hall in Oakland, and that's make music.

But his music came with a message Thursday night, a message to vote for Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.

Bon Jovi is part of the Clinton campaign's "Love Trumps Hate" concert series.

Jay Z, Katy Perry and Jennifer Lopez are all also scheduled to give concerts to support Hillary Clinton in battleground states such as Pennsylvania.

The big surprise came at the end of the concert when Jon Bon Jovi introduced former President Bill Clinton to cheers from the crowd.

President Clinton urged the crowd to show their support on Election Day: "This election is basically coming down to who votes. She'll win if you vote."

The former president will stay in Pittsburgh overnight and hold a campaign rally for his wife in Beaver County Friday. He will be speaking at the Franklin Center in Aliquippa in the morning.
