Not at all. My show (Dublin night 2) is a contender. It had 28 songs and lots of surprises. I'm not picking it just because I went.

I attended one of the O2 shows and it was utter shit.

I get that, but Dublin was an amazing show. Someone said June 17 at the o2. Good show, but compared to the likes of Dublin, Sydney 3, Buenos Aires, etc. that's all it is. Good.

Same with Mannheim. Very good show, better than Dublin or Sydney? Mmm, I can't say so. But it's all opinion.

well from what you say it should be called 'what show had the best setlist on paper'. And it's not.

Well, I already said before I'm glad I went to Murrayfield rather than any of the others so far. It had an amazing set and the band were on fire.

It's definitely a contender for one of the best.

For sheer surprise though, its gotta be the 02 show where Jon plays Santa Fe.

Well hopefully impartial and objective posters like yourself will save the day and we'll have a definitive best show at the end of this all

I guess we could put it this way. Unless you go to every single show, there's no way of answering this thread without a skewed opinion.

And those choices are because of great execution with great setlists. I could've said Vancouver 2 (These Days AND STBI), but IMO it wasn't performed as great as these other shows.

It's a good shout because that nearly made me fall from the nosebleeds and die happy.....but the crowd just wasn't all that in my opinion.

It's all opinion. I was just saying how some seem to throw out their show without thinking.

Look here at the show I went to. It was fantastic, the best concert I've ever attended. Was it my personal favorite? Yes. Was it the best? No. I think some are throwing out what's their favorite instead of what's best, if you get what I mean.

1. Blood On Blood
2. We Weren't Born To Follow
3. You Give Love A Bad Name
4. Whole Lot Of Leavin'
5. Born To Be My Baby
6. Lost Highway
7. When We Were Beautiful
8. Superman Tonight
9. We Got It Goin' On
10. Bad Medicine
~ Roadhouse Blues
11. It's My Life
12. Homebound Train (Richie Sambora on lead vocals)
13. Hallelujah
14. Something For The Pain (acoustic)
15. Someday I'll Be Saturday Night (acoustic)
16. Happy Now
17. Work For The Working Man
18. Who Says You Can't Go Home
19. Love's The Only Rule

Encore 1:
20. I'll Sleep When I'm Dead
~ Twist & Shout
21. I Love This Town
22. Runaway
23. Keep The Faith
