The Bon Jovi covers being crowd pleasers...

Trixter hanging over the front row balcony and then walking out with them...

Blaze and Stranger were great times to be a Bon Jovi fan.... Throw the Count Basie shows on top of all that...

I was at Shepherds Bush in London when Jon did show up in 1998! And quite honestly I was disgusted with the hate that was hurled at Jon from some members of the audience. I think I may have been around a big "anti-Jon crowd" down the front. Absolutely uncalled for! From the recordings I don't think the majority of the crowd were like that, but it felt like it where I was! Kinda ruined the experience for me, I was very excited about Jon turning up!

I was disappointed that so little from Stranger was played. I think only Stranger and The Answer. Maybe Rosie acoustic (I went both nights and I'm pretty sure he did Rosie one night and The Answer the other). Loads of stuff from Undiscovered Soul and the usual Bon Jovi stuff (I'll be There, Prayer, Wanted, Bad Medicine). They were still two gigs that i will never forget!

In fact here's the full show the night that Jon turned up
