22 March 2003 - Charlotte, NC, USA Concert Review |

solid
Just to add a few tidbits to other reviews...
Jon dedicated Distance to US servicemen and their families with a wish that all return home soon & safely.
Keep the Faith is probably their best live song...they play it slightly up-tempo from the album version, and the bass really gives it some kick.
Born to be my Baby is another great one to hear live and I'm glad they played it.
Sorry, but I have to give the thumbs down to the Bad Medicine/Shout medley. A nice number, but just too familiar...they have the range, interests and skills to come up with a new closer...
I agree that Misunderstood wasn't a great song to hear live, but I liked Everyday, Distance, Undivided a lot.
I'll be there for you is not one of my favorite Bon Jovi songs, but I thought the Richie version was great...
All in all, my 4th show (saw them once on the Slippery tour [16 years ago!], twice on Keep the Faith), and they're definitely still rockin.'
