25 June 2008 - Bristol, United Kingdom Concert Review 27 June 2008
Excellent, but...

A review by Paul Wickes / wicken1301@hotmail.com


...they never really got out of second gear.

I read a few reviews before the gig (hopefully trying to get an insight into their possible set!) and a couple of reviews indicated that they hold back prior to a big gig (Twickers) or immediately following.

Whilst the gig was blinding, I got the feeling (as a 23- Bon Jovi gig veteran) that they were playing well within themselves.

Set details (from what I remember and definitely not in order):

Lost Highway
Born to be my baby
Bad name
Summertime
We got it going on
Lie to me
Capt Crash
Knockin' on heavens door/Blaze of glory
In these arms
Bad medicine/Shout
I'll be there for you (Richie)
Sleep when I'm dead
Keep the faith
Whole lotta leaving
Runaway
Raise your hands
Its my life
Have a nice day
Who says you can't go home?

Encore (only one - :( )
Wanted
Prayer

What was missing?

* Additional encore
* Material from Lost Highway
* Dialogue with the crowd
* The element of surprise
* Dry County
* A decent route to the stadium from those AA idiots, who directed car travellers round the houses to get to the car park! 2 hours to travel 7 miles!

That said, it was still a great gig!
