Best show I went to was either NMS Night 2 or MSG Night 3. Both had very decent sets, and a band on FIRE. (Though NOTHING can top the encore of MSG Night 2) NMS Night 3 was pretty good as well.
Worst was NMS Night 4. The set was garbage, and there was zero passion, energy, or joy in the performance. I've seen auto-pilot Jovi shows before, but that was the only time I was actually upset that I went. Terrible.

Set List - 03/04/11 - Uncasville, CT
March 4, 2011
RADIO SAVED MY LIFE
WE WEREN’T BORN TO FOLLOW
LOST HIGHWAY
WHOLE LOT OF LEAVIN'
THORN IN MY SIDE
WILD IN THE STREETS
I GOT THE GIRL
THE MORE THINGS CHANGE
SUMMMERTIME
BLAZE OF GLORY
IN THESE ARMS
SUPERMAN TONIGHT
LIVING IN SIN

Worst show/setlist was NMS #4
The song selection is phenomenal, but as a setlist, the order has always seemed very scattershot to me.

I only did 4 shows this tour but the 2nd and 3rd sydney shows were the greatest for me . Having raise your hands as an opener and being front row was pretty much the highlight of my Bon Jovi career .

Agreed. Plus as cool as I Got the Girl, Wild in the Streets, Summertime, and Radio is... at least different for this tour, those are four songs I don't need to hear again live... I'd take it over Lost Highway and Work any day of the week though.

However Hey God, Thorn, Superman Tonight acoustic and Living in Sin for me would be worth more than the price of that ticket.

Actually it kind of seemed scattershot that night too, but I guess that was part of the appeal. It has been a LONG time since I have seen ANY spontaneity from the band/Jon (since he's the CEO and all).

I get "I Got the Girl, Summertime, and Radio", but "Wild in the Streets"? Really?? Hm, that was a highlight of the last 3 tours for me. I agree with the rest!!

Yeah I know... that is one I have never gotten into. Besides Bad name, probably my least favorite track on Slippery. A Lot of people like it though. Its not bad, just not my cup of tea.

Instead of Wild in the Streets, give me Wild is the Wind!

Can't disagree with that. But I do love WITS live, at least with the Richie solo.

Oh, I would take Wild is the Wind over it too, any day! That's one of my all time favorites!
