Expectations for the 2018 Tour

they need to:
- cut setlist to 20 songs in order to save Jons voice and quality of the show;
- every show to last about 2 hours with fine collection of songs;
- give the chance Phil X,Shanks,Dave and the others to do some exstension
instrumentaly if they want show more than 2 hours long;
- include audience to sing as much as they can;
- rotate more songs from THINFS like born again tomorrow,devils in the
temple,labor of love;
- they are really must include some songs from Bounce in every tour-
everyday,undivided,bounce,distance hook me up-harder songs from it;

The newer guys in the band have had ample, AMPLE time to learn all different songs from the catalog, absolutely ZERO excuses to have static setlists this year. That's my only wish and expectation.

I'm going to the Milwaukee show where they will close out the Bradley Center so I hope they have a special set for us, usually they don't do anything extra special here, besides the last time they were here in 2011 when they sang REM's "It's The End of The World As We Know It"

does anyone have info about Europe tour at all this year? it woud be first time not to tour and promote new album in Europe. Autumn,october or november can someone get any info? Or could be end of may and june this year with dates coming with the begininng of the tour in february?

Because We Can Tour USA leg 35 shows in spring of 2013. And Europe leg 25 shows in Summer. It will not be so different. 27 dates confirmated for these spring in USA. In 2017 they They did 62 shows.

In July Jon could go to the beach, so I foresee 20-30 dates in May and June touring Europe.

I hope so,any info I hear share right away,and you and others here also

I think if May/June was going to happen it would have been announced by now. I've got a feeling they are going to skip Europe again

I agree. Maybe this is their way of building up demand??
Either that or they really are basing the dates on album sales.
Phil said on twitter that he was psyched for the tour but wishes they were doing more shows so I really think this is it.....

Matthew Bongiovi replied on his twitter page early this morning to a fan's question about touring in Europe. He said nothing in the works now and for sure not this Summer. He replied again a few minutes ago that alot of people don't understand the logistics of touring. He said they would be back to Europe sometime; fans just have to believe.
I read this all under a tweet he made about a fake RNRHOF party someone is trying to scam people with in Las Vegas. https://twitter.com/TheMattBongiovi

Must have been money related that they couldn't come to terms with promoters or else they have been pretty shady to lead fans along all this time knowing it was never on the agenda.
Really surprised they are skipping Europe altogether, feels like 2 fingers to us tbh. I sense the band may wind down on the world tours altogether and stick closer to home.

I think Jon knows about the problems with his voice, he'd have issues getting away with that in Europe.
