In early reports, the Bon Jovi singer attended the Pollstar Live! conference where he was awarded the Milestone Award.

During the conversation, his recent vocal reconstructive surgery was brought up and he mentioned that he never experienced something like this ever in his life.

"It's been a difficult road, but I found a doctor in Philadelphia who did something called a medialization, because one of my cords was literally atrophied," he said.

The reason why the singer had a surgery was because his paralyzed vocal fold was needed to be pushed to the middle.

Now that he's been recovering from his surgery, he teased fans about what's coming next: "New record's done. So now I just want to get back to two and a half hours a night, four nights a week, before I'm gonna go out there on the road for real. But I'm confident in my doctor."
