So the new touring members (all except Hugh) are "learning some oldies" for 2018.
I remember in one The Circle rehearsal they did: Only lonely, The Hardest part is the night, Wild is the wind, Something for the pain, Little bit of soul, Bullet, Last man standing, Something to believe in, Rocking all over the world, etc. Let's see with hope how it goes this 2018 tour!! -_-

In the meantime I'm gonna play by myself Bon Jovi oldies...

I guess it was at the rehearsals in Honolulu for the start of the tour. Soundboard recordings of The Hardest Part Is The Night and Only Lonely had been posted somewhere backstage during that era. And since, with the exception of Little Bit of Soul, all tracks were played in 2010 I assume they went through those at these soundchecks.

Even though it had never been a favourite of mine on the album, the live versions from that era were truely packed with energy and looked like fun:

Sorry, I mean the part about them rehearsing older songs for the tour. I'm pretty sure we learned about Little Bit of Soul being rehearsed from when Jon would sometimes take over the band's twitter page.

For a bad year like 2003, Jon did great here! He even went nuts before the second chorus! He's not fully in tune on this performance though but still a great performance!

His vocals during the Bounce era were actually great until they hit Europe where it all started to deteriorate rather rapidly. The second North American leg in the summertime was just a mess then. But during the promo shows he was on fire and it carried on until the end of the first US leg. Keep The Faith from the same show is out of this world. But maybe he went too far by trusting his voice to be able to carry those screams and raspy vocals and it backfired on him.
