Japan setlist today?

I second that, sis!! This is the coolest news I've heard all day! I can't WAIT to see our man move seven feet to his RIGHT and sing his little heart out center stage!!

Exactly!!!

Didn't Jon say somewhere that they won't include it on the tour cause they don't want to rip off the tragic events? (or was it just for a single?). Anyways, I think that's the reason they didn't play Undivided, which is a shame cause it's a good song...

i don't want to cause a fuss but they may not want to rip it off on (9/11) for the live show but when they were promoting the album they didn't mind using the whole 9/11 thing as a means of promoting the positive feel of the album... just my thought...

Richie singing IBTFY would be good to see... but i did see him do it on his solo tour and that was great - i don't need to see it in a live set with BJ... if he sang ballad of youth, undiscovered soul, who i am, church of desire or anything like that though then i would be very impressed...

... youhave to ask if he was singing it because jon can't sing...

as for japan only being warmup shows traditionally i don't buy that and personally i think they always get the best shows...

in smaller more intimate indoor venues, and off top of my head songs since 93 played there not anywhere else (rarish ones or at least rare for that tour): blame it on the love of rock n roll, more recently: hey god, something for the pain, tokyo road, electric runaway, something to believe in, livin in sin, wild is the wind...

enough said? that's what makes this such a shame, that this is the japanese tour for god's sake and THAT is the setlist...

i think we are all hoping for an improvement.

We all know when you are there it is great live, but a lot of that is the atmosphere, and at the end of the day it's the music i judge the show off not the stage setup, or what clothes were worn.

The Domes are the size of a (baseball) Stadium, they aren't really intimate.

Well if that's the case with this tour as well, we're all screwed.

hopefully we're not all scewed - but yes there's good reason to say it.

They are fully seated and a hell of a lot more intimate than Old Trafford or Hyde Park.

Well hopefully krb is right and they are being racist. That way we don't get the crush tour part III.

hopefully ! lol not that i normally condone it.

japan, as everyone should know, has a large rock culture, which is why bands such as scorpions, bon jovi were always big there when they weren't necessarily in europe or even the US at times....

... they tend to acknowledge this fact in the live shows (from what i've listened to on boots) when they play rarer or rarish songs...

... i'm sure there will be a tokyo road at some point in there, but i cant see the band changing this setlist more than just the odd song or so for the first few weeks of the tour./
