3 December 2005 - Philadelphia, PA, USA Concert Review 6 December 2005
Round 2

A review by BonJovi4ever / jaxinnj@yahoo.com

After seeing the Dec 2nd show the night before, I didn't think they could top their performance but they did as they put on the best show on the tour thus far!

This time I was in section 8, right by the sound pit where Jon performs "Last Man Standing".....SCORE! This couple was in our seats and they said they'll switch with us for 8 rows closer and I knew they wanted to be next to where Jon would start the show but I said fine. As the show started and Jon comes out to "Rock Superstar" we went in the isle and right where we would have been sitting to see him up close...can you say SUCKERS!? :) Then the show went on with "...Bad Name" and "Complicated" just as the night before. They also covered both Tom Petty's "I Won't Back Down" and Otis Redding's "Treat Her Right" again. Then they did a cover of "Good Lovin'." They performed 6 songs from HAND, excluding "Last Cigarette" that was performed the night before. They also did a 7 song encore! And played 29 songs in all! They playeda little over 2 1/2 hours tonight. The encore was "Just Older", "Someday I'll Be Saturday Night", "Treat Her Right", "Shout" (1st time on the tour), "Wanted Dead or Alive", and "Keep The Faith" w/ "Sympathy For The Devil" (also first time on the tour).

Highlights for this show were:
1-Jon again jamming at the end of "Blaze of Glory."
2-Jon doing his time machine countdown (mimicking Wayne's World w/ his hands) counting down to 1982 when he yells stop and the band stops playing. Then he gives a quick speech about in 1982 a little band named Bon Jovi had a hit that went like this and played Runway. It was the coolest song intro.
3-Jon saying that he will see us at the new Phillies ball park this summer....STADIUM SHOW FOR PHILLY!!!

Loudest song participation:
1-Bad Medicine
2-HAND
3-Prayer
4-Runaway
