BON JOVI are planning a hiatus after next year's world tour ends in the summer.

Starpulse quotes frontman Jon Bon Jovi as saying that once the band complete their touring plans next year they plan to have a rest after nearly two years on the road.

"It's time. We have to go to bed," he says. "When you're going to places that they don't have their own electricity and you say, 'Don't worry, we'll bring our own,' it's time to take a break."

But he insists he won't be retiring anytime soon.

He adds, "For an old man who has no plastic surgery, still has all his own hair and wears a 30-inch waist, I'm doing OK."

There has been some talk that while the band are on a break their frontman will go solo for a while, but nothing has been confirmed yet.
