Giants night 2

If you saw a blonde walking around in jean shorts and a orange and brown bikini top then that's was me. Boy, was it hot that day!

Yes, next tour we have to actually introduce ourselves!

Yep, Always was really good and you are right, Jon stayed out on the ramp for that song. I remember after the show being stuck in traffic and thinking I had to go home and pack and be up in less than 3 hours since I was flying out of Philly to go to the Chicago show. But, none of that seemed to phase me, I was still on an adrenaline high!

In that case, you were right behind Kev and me. We were in the second row, just to the left of Jon. I thought it made up for the previous night also. I can't compare it with night 3 since I waited 11 years to hear Dry County again so that was the highlight of the night (and of the tour). Overall I think the concert on night 3 was better - certainly it was more random - but night 2 was very special due to Dry County. See how one song can affect your entire perception of a concert!

Kev and I queued all day in 104 degree temperatures. It was HOT that day. My husband and Thierry and my son and a friend of his were on the floor in pretty decent seats. My son's favorite Bon Jovi song of all time is Dry County and he's been to a pile of concerts and this was the first time he heard it played live. He was 14 the last time I heard it and he didn't always want to come with his parents at that time so he missed hearing it then. This is the same son that turned me on to the band by playing LYHOM very LOUD in his bedroom. So he is a longtime fan too and he was very happy to finally hear Dry County.

It was at least 10,000 times better than Night 1 for me. I was swearing off outdoor shows and casino shows at one point.

I still felt bad, but I enjoyed Night 2 a lot more. Matt is great company and we appreciated a lot of the same things. We flipped when they started playing Dry County and pretty much no one else in our section even had a clue.

really why was mk better?

I know for me, it's hard to compare as I enjoyed the MK shows too. The vibe at both venues just totally different. Both, great, but just different.

I saw you and Kev, up in second row. I was a little more over to the left in front of Richie. I wanted to come say "hello" but it got a little nuts in our section with folks trying to push their way up front, so I had to stand my ground, lol!

wonder how kevins night was

Next tour, for sure! I'll probably be back at Beths for the next Jersey shows, heh. *Fingers crossed*

I think I liked nights 2 and 3 about the same. I thought the setlist was better night 3, but Jon seemed to interact with the crowd more on night 2. All in all, two very good shows.
