The hour-long programme will air on BBC2 at 11pm on Saturday, June 1 with the BBC iPlayer streaming Bon Jovi's performance shortly after the broadcast ends.

Bon Jovi's live set from BBC Radio Theatre was filmed in January 2013 and came just months before guitarist Richie Sambora's departure from the band. Any lingering hopes he could rejoin the group were quashed in the new issue of Classic Rock magazine after frontman Jon Bon Jovi admitted he had barely spoken to his ex-bandmate over the last 11 years.
Bon Jovi will release Forever, their 16th studio album through EMI on Friday, June 7.
