Always wanted to hear "Thank You For Loving Me", one of my fave ballads.

Failing that, Dry County be up there.

Bon Jovi co-founder Richie Sambora (54) for the time being will no longer be on stage with the rock band. He had the group around frontman Jon Bon Jovi (52) Although not yet written off, "but we are currently just in completely different phases," the guitarist and songwriter said the "Stuttgarter Nachrichten"

They should do smaller venues and stadiums, many surprises and have a large variety of songs. Didn't they once talked about doing whole album shows? And of course acoustic shows, so that every fan will get something out of it. During the LH tour and the O2 run and some concerts here and there, there were the last moments of greatness. Just bring it back.

To make money it just needs Jon's smile and the classic songs, to actually prove something as a real band again it needs a lot more than that.

That being said, I was always very lucky regarding rare songs with only seeing 20 shows and the only songs I am longing to hear are Thorn In My Side and Damned.

I don't even need to hear full albums. We all get excited when one rare song gets played. By rare, I don't mean 'Dry County' or 'These Days', I mean 'Let It Rock', 'Only Lonely' etc...

I really hope the word 'reunion' gets scrapped IF they come back because it will be no different to what the Because We Can tour was. A paint by numbers tour where Jon changes the odd song some nights yet not many big surprises. Hardly any infact. If they do a reunion tour, then we can well and truly kiss Bon Jovi goodbye in terms of putting on a live show.

I want a big change! A change of producer, a change of sound, a change of heart. I want them ALL to sit down, discuss how they feel, discuss what road they want to go down and work together. Not just Jon doing his own thing and letting the rest know what is happening. They are meant to be a team and that team needs to work together.

I can't stomach Bells, but TAALS is one of my favorites.

As for a reunion tour, IF they do tour again, it will be for a new record. One thing Jon has said that I believe is he doesn't want to be a nostalgia act. Now, even though that's pretty much what the live shows are anyways, in his mind, it's somehow justifiable because he throws 3 or 4 new songs into the set. I don't see Jon touring for the sake of a reunion. Bands that do reunion tours usually need the money. Jon has been very smart with his money and never needs to work another day in his life.

Although I never been to a Bon Jovi concert cause I became I started listening to their songs a few weeks before they came to Romania in 2011, and unfortunately they haven't returned this last tour, if I ever get a chance to see them live I would love to hear them perform

Wild Is The Wind
Dry County
Something To Believe In
I Believe
Damned
Never Say Goodbye

I'd love to see them perform others songs like Bitter Wine,Edge of A Broken heart,Outlaws of Love,Fields of Fire etc. but I am 99% they will never perform these songs live.

You know what, you're right. To the casual guy on the street a reunion tour to announce Richie is back is going to do nothing for them. It'll only be a reunion tour to the diehards and I fear it'll mean static setlists for a long while.

They should end each show with an extended version of Runaway, just to spite Richie
