Former New England Patriots Coach Bill Belichick may be known for his stone-cold demeanor, but underneath the gruff

exterior beats the heart of a carefree musician. That’s according to Jon Bon Jovi, who counts himself among Belichick’s

friends. In fact, the two are so close that the legendary football coach has even hit the road with Bon Jovi and his bandmates,

the rocker says. “Few people know that he was a closet drummer,” Bon Jovi says. “He came on the road with us, especially

in Europe where he could come and hang for a week at a time. We took him to Paris. We took him to Italy. We took him all

around with us.” Regarding reports that Belichick isn’t exactly the most personable guy in the world, Bon Jovi says, “For

those who don’t believe those stories of the warm, wonderful side that I know of him is true: It is true. It’s all true. He’s a lot of

fun.”
