4. Just Older
5. Lost Highway
6. Tokyo Road
7. Breakout
8. When We Were Beauiful
9. The Distance
10. In These Arms
11. It's My Life
12. Bad Medicine (W/Roadhouse Blues)
13. I'll Be There For You (Richie Sambora)
14. Livin' On A Prayer
15. Who Says You Can't Go Home
16. Have A Nice Day
17. Captain Crash And The Beauty Queen From Mars
18. Born To Be My Baby
19. Raise Your Hands

20. Always
21. Blaze Of Glory
22. These Days
23. Someday I'll Be Saturday Night
24. Wanted Dead Or Alive

The bolded songs can be changed. I tried hard not to turn it into just a set I'd like, which obviously worked at some places and not others.

*Also, more of a greatest hits show with some rarities. 'The Circle' has pretty much been abandoned, so why not?

It doesn't need to be there, in my opinion.

Nice to see "The Distance" in your setlist but I think the song would not work in its original version. The best place for it is in the accoustic section. There it could get the same good reaction like SFTP. Another Bounce song which would work great in the accoustic setting is "Misunderstood". The chorus is damn catchy and they wouldn't lose the audience.

I like the original version of The Distance live, but I couldn't see it making a return to sets. I think Misunderstood sounded good on the This Left Feels Right DVD, but it wasn't really a version they could go do on the circle stage. I think they should just do the song regularly. Single version, please.

Bad Name really doesnt need to go anywhere, it is surprising how good it is at getting everyone off their seats without fail.

Same here. I don' think it's the same when 'Bad Name' isn't song no. two.

With just wanting to do something special, it would be enough because everyone here knows that when they want to make it happen, it happens.

Great encores, great performances, it's all within reach if they want to do it..

I,m with you on this, just go with the intention of enjoying the event. They cant please everyone and improvements to some may be a step backwards for others.

ye, the last two shows i've been to had Lost Highway and Blood on Blood as openers but it was only when Bad Name came on that the whole crowd got into it. However, I agree that it would mix things up and could be replaced by another big hit.
