It wasn't part of a tour in 2002, but they did play there as part of the Z100 Zootopia concert. I think it was in July or August of that year prior to the release of Bounce. It was a fairly short set as it was a multiact show.

Yes, I´m sure. As posted above, it was just a small set and wasn´t part of actual tour, but they played there anyway.

Yeh they had a gap of 12 years between shows, this is basically (and I dont mean to offend anyone here) becos alot of the American Audience are fickle. I cannot really figure out why the US didnt like BJ in the 90's, 2 of their best albums plus a greatest hits and Jon really was sex on legs. Yet now theyre semi popular over there again BJ devote most of their time in the staes. I know this is an old argument but I think they could have easily halved the amount of stadium shows there and done OZ. Sorry going a bit off topic there.

Not liking a particular period of music does not make you a fool, it means you have different tastes to other people. You and I might consider that period great, others may consider the Bounce period great. None of us are right or wrong, it's just an opinion. Stop being so ignorant.

Gaz the problem in the ninties when KTF and TD came out was that in the US unless you were wearing flannel and came from Seattle you didn't get radio airplay. Radio thought grunge was the beginning and end all of everything and BJ was so successful here in the eighties and got classified in with the hairmetal bands thing that when music shifted programmers and such just couldn't get past the image they had in their heads of BJ as a hair band. Plus you have to remeber Bj was extremely successful but not respected by critics and such, so they wrote them off. The respect has only come here in the US in the last couple of years because the critics finally have to acknowledge that like their music or not they are one of the worlds most successful bands, they still write record and have top ten hits and they still sell major stadiums and arenas here. The band is now sitting on the steps of Graceland, meaning that have reached that place here in the US in their career where like Bruce, or U2, or the Stones, they just are. they have their niche, they have earned their place in R&R history, no one can take away what theyhave accomplished.
