The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports he also said: "This is the day when I need a karaoke singer. Which one of you guys in a bar band knows all the words to Bon Jovi songs?"
He sang "Bad Medicine" and wrapped things up after 90 minutes of the expected two-and-a-half hour show with "Livin' on a Prayer."
The band is scheduled to play New York's Madison Square Garden on Friday.
Bon Jovi performed in Philadelphia last Friday at the Wells Fargo Center.
