And, American fans never get the bonus tracks. Can you believe when Lost Highway came out with "country music Nashville inspired songs" they gave the overseas fans the bonus song....what the *&^% is that?

I like what Shania Twain did on her last cd. (UP!) Speaking of....now there is a fan club I should join. And A LOT less expensive, too. She has a new cd in the works from my understanding.


I still think if Bon Jovi was smart they would just release the same thing EVERYWHERE. Kind of like when they did the boxset. And with the new cd.....a coupon for a ticket to a local concert. (Hence avoiding high charges from AIG and Ticketmaster.)

Wow....now there is an idea someone can take and make a profit on?
And where is my paycheck?
JEEEEEEEZZZZZZZ!

There was at least one U.S. version of Lost Highway with bonus tracks, because I bought it. It included Walk Like A Man and a live version of ILTT. (I also got a Japanese version in order to get Lonely and Put The Boy Back in Cowboy.) And FYI - the boxset was NOT the same everywhere. The Japanese version had an extra disc. I've never tried to get it because I have all the songs on it from other releases.

Maybe the rest of your post was a joke. It's hard to tell on message boards. But in case it wasn't, speaking from the band's side of things, why would they want to stop doing something that causes at least part of their fanbase to buy multiple copies of everything?! I won't even try to figure out why the band would want to offer a free concert ticket with a $10 CD . . .

Yes I'm sure about that. In 1990 - there were 2 shows, an early show and a late show. I can post the setlists of both if you want.

In 1991 there was only one show with this setlist:

1. Fever
2. Born To Be My Baby
3. You Give Love A Bad Name
4. Wild In The Streets
5. Love For Sale
6. Bed Of Roses (first time played and before it was released)
7. Diamond Ring (played way before it was released)
8. It's My Life
9. We Gotta Get Out Of This Place
10. Blaze Of Glory (first time played by the band)
11. Wanted Dead Or Alive
12. Livin' On A Prayer
13. I'd Die For You
14. Blood On Blood
15. I'll Be There For You
16. Bad Medicine
~ Gloria
~ Shout

Encore:
17. Levon
18. With A Little Help From My Friends
19. The Sole Truth (Never actually released despite Jon's comments)
20. Silent Night

Bonus tracks are issued by recording co in the countries so people support local industry rather than buy imports from US

For me this was the most bizare set of demo's / out takes etc.

This is due to the fact that most of these songs beat shit out of what is actually on the album. I have highlighted my favourites.
you know if crying is available anywhere havent seen it anywhere
