Default Highlight of the tour???

So whats your best moment from the tour??? Ive got a few;

Bed of roses and These days at Dublin were awesome and made the whole trip worth while. At the end of Old Trafford when Jon was thanking the fans (and you and you and you) we'd managed to get on the front row by then he looked right at me and said it, I was on cloud 9(ok this may sound corny to some, but I dont care). Lola was cool too cos it were the first time they played it.

And probably THEE hightlight of the whole UK tour for me was when Jovi came back on for a 3rd or 4th encore at Hyde Park to sing Never Say goodbye. (funny that cos it was also the highlight of the last tour when they played it at Cardiff in 2001)

For the first time, I don't think I can pinpoint any particular highlights from the shows I saw. I do know the low points of the tour, and all I can say about them is that they have nothing to do with the shows themselves... But the highlights of the tour? I really don't know. The shows were great, some of them were better than others, and HP was definitely the best one of the 5 shows I saw. But somehow the whole tour is still nothing but a big blur in my mind, and I can't seem to be able to make sense of it at all.

for me...

erm - just everything. A lot of it none music related, but:

I'd Die for you in Ostend
as well as LYHOM since it was the tour premiere
blood on blood since at that stage it hadn't been played *too* often

W-ton

no real highlights other than seeing Richie at work

London

Richie again, but also EVERY SINGLE THING before the show, after it... and during (but for maybe 2 or 3 songs)

KTF of course

I'll be the first to bring up North America I guess.....but being front row when they shocked the die-hards in Toronto by whipping out Damned....of all the songs they could have played from These Days this would never be expected....and to introduce Damned with an acapella verse of walk away Renee....it was totally fresh. The highlight of the show for me--along with Keep the Faith of course.


Cheers people,

Mikey D

I only had the privelege of seeing them twice this year, but without a doubt my highlight is the encore in Tampa. Blood on Blood was great and I was ecstatic. But, then they came back out for a second encore and did Never Say Goodbye!! It was great!!!! Now, if only someone had recorded the darn show.

I will say the little acoustic show over at his local high school. Very intimate, and Jon sounded amazing. I will never be that close again.

There are so many, this tour was really special.

For example

- Richie's reaction about our "Sambora" shirts at the shows and Lumpy (his guitar tech) giving me a handful of guitar picks for the Sambora-Shirt-Gang as a little Thank-you. I never ever expected any reaction and we got so much. Jon react about them and our banner, too, but I wasn't at the shows where he mentioned the shirts and the banner.

- Another highlight of course was the Acoustic-set in Kiel which was really special. I'm just thankful that I could be there.

- Having a phantastic time with my Sambora-gang. We had so much fun on tour, not only during the concerts.

- meeting the band again.

The whole tour was very special. Great setlists at the concerts (esp. Mannheim, München and Kiel), great tourmates with whom it was fun to tour.

1) Drinking party before Hyde Park show
2) Hyde Park show
3) Meeting all the great people, thank you.

One downside though, hangover.
