John “Bugzee” Hougdahl got into the music industry by dumping a beer down a guitar player’s chest soaking the guitar. He went on to cut his teeth with 70s rock bands Nazareth, Uriah Heep and the Pat Travers Band before getting his first production manager gig with Blue Öyster Cult in 1981. From there it was off to the big time with Mötley Crüe, Kiss and 25 years of arenas and stadiums with Bon Jovi. We talk about the 1984 Jackson’s Victory tour as well as what it was like the day Michael Jackson died during production rehearsals for “This Is It”. His 50 plus years in the concert touring industry speak for itself.
