It's annoying how HAND was cut out of the broadcast of the Philly show in the UK. I was mega gutted. Trying to find Bon Jovi now on AOL but everytime I start to show it starts in the middle of Linkin Park and Jay-Z and you can't fast forward/rewind. How annoying? So what's your take on HAND for those who saw it? I think Livin' On a Prayer was pretty crap, and IML was marginally better. LOAP rocked on the Bounce tour, but here, probably due to lack of time they missed the intro and first verse.

I don't think that'll be the reason. It's not like they definitely had to play a new song, so it's a bit stupid to say "we'll be playing a new song on an event that is broadcasted all over the world, but we don't want it to be shown".

It's probably because it's not interesting for a lot of people to hear an unreleased song, it's more interesting to let people have a good time while listening to classics.

quite a lot of other bands played their new songs which were aired worldwide and not cut, which is why I cant understand not letting the world hear a new Jovi song.

I thought HAND was well sung, I even liked it better than at the awards ceremony.

Just seen the full Jovi set now. HAND sounds great. Looking forward to the new album. I like the power chords and the chorus is catchy. Not much of a solo, but then most singles don't seem to have extensive solos on them anyway. LOAP and IML weren't partly cut like they were on the UK broadcast so they seemed a little better. I guess I've seen those played live so many times though that it's just the same thing and I kinda switch off.

No I saw it on AOL.com. Had to wait for ages for the show to come around to Bon Jovi because it started in the middle of Linkin Park and Jay-Z, so had to wait for about 3 hours until it came around again and I could wacth Bon Jovi. The picture quality is crap, but the audio is good and HAND sounds like it's gonna be a good track. Looking forward to the new album.

like who? I only know performers who sang new songs from recently RELEASED albums. Unlike the Jovi album.
