I've often mentioned the ridiculousness of leaving out Dry County as it was an awesome version with cool David Bryan piano intro. In a cheap ass move that beggars belief they didn't even include the rest of the show as extras when the DVD was finally released, instead just copying over what was on the video. Typical Bon Jovi unfortunately, look at the re-masters series for further evidence of their lack of respect for fans. Where most bands will add in bonus songs, demos and re-mixes when releasing a re-master, Bon Jovi actually removed the bonus songs on the original albums. Look at the Deep Purple remasters for an example of how it should be done. These are probably record company decisions so can't totally blame JBJ but surely he must have some power over these things being put out in Bon Jovi's name.

The only saving grace in terms of recent releases was the boxset which actually looked like some time and effort had been spent on it. It was a really cool gift for fans and actually restored my faith in them for a while along with them performing Dry County in Mancheser on the HAND tour.
