A little bit of history…

When John Bongiovi visited the local radio station WAPP 103.5FM "The Apple" in Lake Success, New York. D.J., Chip Hobart, suggested he let WAPP include the song "Runaway" on a compilation album of local homegrown talent. Bon Jovi was reluctant but eventually gave them the song which was written in 1980 and recorded with studio musicians:

Dave Sabo (guitar), Tim Pierce (guitar), Roy Bittan (keyboards),

Frankie LaRocka (drums), Hugh McDonald (bass).

The song began to get airplay in the New York metro area, and then other sister stations in major markets began to play the song. Suddenly, all the record label A&R execs who had passed on the demo they had heard were scrambling to find out who this unsigned artist was. WAPP was doing showcases -- Bon Jovi now desperately needed a band. The soon-to-be-members of the band had crossed paths in their earlier days, but the current lineup didn't come together until March of 1983. Bon Jovi gave David Bryan a call, who in turn called bassist Alec John Such and experienced drummer Tico Torres. Friend Richie Sambora orignally  tapped Bon Jovi's neighbor, Dave Sabo (a.k.a. The Snake), who would later form the group Skid Row. Sambora himself would join shortly after.
