Default How would you feel about a Medley

I've seena few acts do a medley of hits when they didn't have time to do full songs. In the USA especially curfews are a factor in determining how long an artist can play. So, would you rather see fewer songs in full, or hear bits of songs, but not get the whole thing?

I think it might be a nice way to get a few ballads out of the way without bogging down the show with ballads.

I'd definitely love to hear a medley!
I'm getting tired of the same two songs: Prayer & Wanted!
There are very few surprises when it comes to Bon Jovi.
How can they not know, that we don't want the same stuff
over and over again?

How about a medley from Bad Medicine with Sleep When I'm Dead and then don't play it!

Yeah!
If I will hear once again the "Oh-yeah....Wo-yeeeeah" part during ISWID or Bad Medicine/Shout I'm sure I'll start vomit during the show-

More than a medley I'd like to hear a couple of new version of the songs, not acoustic TLFR way, but something a bit different from the usual way. Two or three These Days songs would be very appreciate too.

To mak a choice, I'd say few but full songs.

If it would make room for hearing some great songs they usually wouldn't have time for I'm all for a medley. Some of the older songs (Prayer, Bad Medicine, Bad Name...etc...) I've heard so many times that I could do without a full version of them to get a few songs that we normally wouldn't always hear. (These Days, In These Arms, Damned, even Richie singing one of HIS OWN songs). A medley of ballads would be great if it meant we got to hear parts of a ballad we normally wouldn't hear (like This Ain't A Love Song!)

Amen my brothers!

A medley would be good - something new and exciting, and preferably with Wanted in it - if they can't get rid of the song completely.

Introducing Last Man Standing and Blame it on the Love with the space saved by the compulsory hits being turned into a medley. Excluding Prayer, of course.

i'm in line with the medicine/shout thing- completely worn out- but i still love my SWID
i'm also for changing the songs a bit- since crush everything was always performed as recorded...
a medley would be a good idea- but as laura said: new and exciting! and ceterum censeo: te set-list should be completely thrown down and rebuilt for it's all the same since 95(!!!!!) except the new songs naturally
