Goin' out with a bang
Well, it didn't take much time deciding that i would fly over to England to see Bon Jovi close out one of the maost famous venues on earth. You can't really predict anything when you know they are going to play to their maximum strength and time. Starting off with "Livin' On a Prayer", they sure knew how to energize the crowd and themselves. The only thing I questioned was the similarity of setlists for both london shows, but I guess if there is going to be a video or something, they would need both shows to get maximum quality. The addition of "These Days" and "Thank You for Loving Me" to the 2nd show was very wise (I personally enjoy them ending a show on a slow song). I personally enjoyed the 2nd show better even though more people decided not to attand it compared to the first. As Always, nothing less than spectacular, even compared to a couple of the U.S. tour dates i saw them...it seems to me they played harder in wembley (which is fine, i am not complaining), and i hope their summer shows get to be as big as wembley.
p.s. playing more stuff rom "These Days" will only help
