Yes. They say they don't, yet they've mentioned many times that reviewers aren't that often on their side. If they wouldn't care, they wouldn't mention it.

I partly agree with this. Although no one should let his/her opinion be influenced by what a critic says, however, a good reviewer often, but not always, writes down what the masses thought about the show, which in the case of Bon Jovi, would mean that 15.000 people that night would feel this way. I'm not saying this particular reviewer is right, but when it comes to the subject of Bon Jovi playing Bad Medicine and the likes, this reviewer just has a point.

There are no must do's in concert. If Bon Jovi would be capable of playing lesser known songs just as good as the hits, the crowd wouldn't need the hits. Also, Bon Jovi have had more than those 5 hits. Your list shows their biggest hits, yet Always isn't included. If they're able to drop Always, why can't they be able to drop Bad Medicine?
