Default Review from Vegas

Well I have no idea what happened to Backstage but I just got back from the concert. First of all Becky, I hope you are sitting down because they did play a new song from the new album called Who Says You Can't Go Home (yes the one Keith Urban sang back-up on) and it was a fun song. They played it during the encore and Jon intro'd it by saying the album is done. This is n ot the single he said but a fun song. It is very Mellencamp with an It's Alright kind of chorus that is great to sing along with- I can very much see Keith fitting in with this song but no folks, no one has gone country-LOL! Anyway, for the rest of the show it was short- only 90 minutes but I did not expect a full set. All the typicals were played as you can see from the posted set list. The other encore song was Twist and Shout. Jon was in a great mood- it was your typical high energy set with Richie doing IBTFY and and as I said all the typical ones including the Sleep/Bad Medicine/Shout set ending. No KTF though this time. It was just so great to sit out on a nice night and enjoy a Jovi show again. Jon looked great in black leather- Richie was stunning as usual (had to get that out of the way, sorry!) and it was a great time. I got there earlier in the day and heard the souncheck- I first heard Who Says You Can't Go Home there and told everyone I could find it was the Keith Urban song from the new album. Had fun meeting many Backstagers and if that board ever comes back I will put my shout outs on there- what a great way to end a business trip with a fun night at the Hard Rock!
