OMFG, give me a break.

Woohoo, some sense finally!!! If you were not at the concert do not comment on how it went. To the people in NZ every song would have been a rarity to them....they never go there!!! Its not like the states where you can pick and choose what concert you want to go to. They got ONE date!!!

In case anybody cared, the audibles were

Any Other Day
Older
Hallelujah
Everyday
Radio Saved My Life
Last Man Standing
The Last Night

Well, a bit surprised to see AOD in the Audible.

Together with Everyday, Radio and Last Man, that might've made the setlist a bit more interesting (on paper)

This is my point. If they have not played there before, or for a long time then surely songs like:

Older
Everyday
Hallelujah
Radio Saved My Life
Last Man Standing

These would have been a better selection and made the set a better coverage of their material etc.

I think that just by adding these songs and adjusting the set slightly it plays better IMO:

LOST HIGHWAY
YOU GIVE LOVE A BAD NAME
RAISE YOUR HANDS
EVERYDAY
CAPT. CRASH
RUNAWAY
JUST OLDER
HAVE A NICE DAY
IN THESE ARMS
RADIO SAVED MY LIFE TONIGHT
BLAZE OF GLORY w/ Knockin On Heaven's Door
WHOLE LOT OF LEAVIN'
BORN TO BE MY BABY
WE GOT IT GOIN' ON
IT'S MY LIFE
BAD MEDICINE w/ Shout
I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU - RICHIE VOX
LAST MAN STANDING
I'LL SLEEP WHEN I'M DEAD
WHO SAYS YOU CAN'T GO HOME
LIVIN' ON A PRAYER

ENCORE:

HALLELUJA
WANTED DEAD OR ALIVE
I LOVE THIS TOWN
BLOOD ON BLOOD
KEEP THE FAITH



I have added songs from the audibles so it is realistic this could have been done.

What exactly would it give you since you haven't been there? And if every show had something special, they would not be special anymore at all and all you whiners would want even more and more and would find something else to whine about.

Nobody always delivers the best they can. If so, nothing would be special anymore. And I still wonder who put you in the position to tell the band what to do or what the recent gig was worth.

I have seen Bon Jovi enough times to know when they are really into a show and give the fans what they deserve or when they just go through the motions and give an average show. My point is you could be in a position to only go to one BJ show during a tour. You may be lucky and get a killer show or you could be one of the fans who went to the Hull, UK show in 2006.

Even the list of audibles sucks. What's up with all the post-2000 songs?

And for the last time: we are not discussing the show, we are discussing the setlist.
Why is that so ****ing bad? When someone says that it's a good setlist, it seems to be an extremely valid point, even if the person didn't attend the show. But when someone complains about it, it's the same argument over and over ("you haven't been to the show bla bla bla").

Please let us express our opinions about THE SETLIST.
This is not Backstage for ****s sake.

I guess for me the setlist goes with the show because even with a great setlist on paper you can have a mediocre show.

[mrleaf]

id perfer to have a mediocre setlist and a top class performance than a top class setlist done in a mediocre way.

[Tictoc]

Some people on here scare me.

It's only a feckin setlist!, the band haven't come out on stage waving nazi flags and asking only audience members with blonde hair and blue eyes to stay.

If the band are enjoying the setlist then the crowd will enjoy the band.

I'm sure in Europe we'll get a few surprises.
