Nokia Theatre '05

I can't help but love this gig. I first saw it on the Finnish TV back in September '07 (if I remember correctly) and was absolutely mesmerized. Jon's voice was still good to say at least (he really put on some 90's-esque rasp during the BTBMB breakdown and HAND, did the howl on KTF etc.)... and he actually moved on stage. Richie was on fire as well and really pulled out some great solos. Teek was a f***ing animal behind the kit (the breakdown on Radio was one of his greatest on-stage moments ever). Bobby didn't get any solos (thank you, Jon). Holy shit, I miss 2005...

Enjoy this before it gets removed from YouTube again:

Just seeing Richie on this reminded me how the HAND promo influenced me to go and buy a pair of tattoo sleeves. Which I then wore in public. It fooled my mother at least, but not the greatest influence Bon Jovi have had on me.
