I find it interesting to see what is being played on other legs to see what kind songs to expect. I know I shouldn't and it spoils the surprise but that's the society we seem to live in these days. This Saturday I was expecting Dry County but got I Believe which was fine by me. I also got Always which I have never heard live even at gigs where the other legs of the tour all got it - nice to strike that one off the list at last!
I love to see Bon Jovi live no matter what they play, and as much as a rarity is nice I'm a huge sucker for the old favourites anyway.
As to the original question is a setlist important? To me, no. What ever they decide to play on the night, as long as they are playing their hearts out and the crowd is into it then I'm usually happy. I'd guess that a setlist chosen by them will mean them giving a better performance as it's what they want to play!
