BEST NIGHT OF MY LIFE
IīVE BEEN A BON JOVI FAN FOR 13 YEARS NOW, AND IT WAS MY FIRST BON JOVI CONCERT, SO I GUESS THAT ONLY PEOPLE VISITING THIS KIND OF PAGE CAN IMAGINE WHAT IT MEANT TO ME. I HAD 2 FINAL EXAMS THE FOLLOWING DAY AND I COULNDīT CONCENTRATE AND STUDY BEFORE THE CONCERT, AND I CERTANLY COULDNīT PAY ATENCION AFTER WHAT I LIVED THERE. I WAS AFRAID OF EXPECTING TOO MUCH, BUT IT WAS WAY BETTER THAN THE ONES IīD HEARD ON RADIO OR WATCHED ON TV. THEY ARE ALL AMAZING ,NOT JUST JON. RICHIE MADE ME BREATHLESS AFTER "IīLL BE THERE FOR YOU". THE MOST EXITING THING IS THAT I KNOW EVERYTHING ABOUT THEM, BUT IT WAS THE FIRST TIME I FELT WE WERE COMUNICATING, BECAUSE THEY WERE SINGING TO ME (WELL, MAYBE NOT JUST ME, BUT IT FELT THAT WAY). AND I COULDNīT HELP LAUGHING WHEN JON SAID THAT HE HAD BEEN PRACTICING HIS SPANISH WITH TICO SO THAT HE WOULD BE ABLE TO SAY "ESTAS CANCIONES DE NUESTRO NUEVO REPER... SORRY I CANīT" OR WHEN HE INTRODUCED RICHIE IN "IīLL BE THERE FOR YOU" LIKE HIS FIRND "RICARDO SAMBORA" AND WHEN HE WAS GOING TO START SINGING HE SAID "NO, EN ESPAŅOL". i GUESS THAT I FEW OF US NOTICED THAT WHEN HE WAS SINGING "THESE DAYS" HE SAID, "HER MOTHER SAID HE WAS LOCO" INSTEAD OF CRAZY, I REALLY LIKED THAT TOO. THERE WERE SOME SURPRISES TOO, LIKE "RAISE YOUR HANDS" THAT I THOUGHT IīD NEVER GET TO HEAR IT LIVE, OR THE VERSION THEY DID FROM "UNDIVIDED". I ONLU MISSED "IN THESE ARMS" AND "ALWAYS". LETS HOPE THE NEXT TIMA I GET THE CHANCE TO SEE THEM THEYīLL SING THEM. SO MAYBE I WAS NOT OBJECTIVE ABOUT THE CONCERT, BUT I FOUND IT THE BEST ROCK CONCERT YOU CAN SEE THESE DAYS FROM THE BEST BAND ROCK HAS GIVEN US. |
