He told People, "We were in Los Angeles, California, and the band was on the road on the New Jersey tour. If you opened up the curtains of my hotel room, there was a big billboard of the five of us [Bon Jovi band members] staring into my window. My girlfriend, who was my fiancée at the time, and I had a night off, and I said, 'I need a greater high. I have an idea. Let's head to Vegas now. She said, 'Now?' I said, 'Now.'"
