Some fun from memory lane: Fear Live 93

Came accross this on YOUTUBE ...
Fear - seldom played, but back then when they did this, it sounded strong.
The energy of young Jon & the band that was still much more flirting with the 'hard rock' scene ...


I'm not a nostalgy type of guy & don't miss those times, but it's still great to see that Bon Jovi was always an amazing life band & among the best of their time in every era.

Cool though that they've evolved from there to how they are now. Hadn't they done that, they would have been around anymore I guess

Enjoy !!!

Awesome.

Such a great tune.

Sounds great. THough you can see why it wasn't played more often, Jon Struggled with it even during that time.
Imagined if he gave it a try now??

Fear is a good hard rock song. I wish Bon Jovi would do more of this but like Javier so rightly said, Jon's just not up to it now.

Does anybody know if they played this more in Europe or America. Nice find.

4 times in total:
Frankfurt / Lyon / Nürnberg / Mannheim 1993

Really cool huh....

True that this would kill him today
But this shows that he struggled already back then. In fact, he always struggled with his voice because these songs are written in a key that is insanely high

In fact, since the LH tour he sings a lot less out of tune and seems to know whether he can cope some notes or not. It's all a little lower but all in all, its more often in tune.

I see his performances of back then as cool, brave, powerfull but perhaps a little messy.
Today is cleaner but with less balls...

Anyway... loved the band back then, still love them today...

The style of the song 'fear' is simply brilliant... what an amazing song. Love it on the album too...
