No it's not. A DVD case showcasing the These Days font means nothing. These Days just had been released, people had been to the shows featuring songs from These Days, hence the reason why it's promoted as a show from the These Days tour. The European part of the 1995 tour was called 1995 tour. It didn't really have a name, although Jon called it the "Here There And Everywhere Tour" in some interview, hence why I called it that on my website, and why it is mentioned here.
I once had a discussion with danfan about this, and I still stand corrected about the dates for the Cross Road tour and the dates for the These Days Tour. Halfway during the tour, These Days was released, and the band started playing more songs of the album. The London shows and the few European shows after it only featured a few songs from These Days. They were rehearsed, but not on the setlist. However, because of the immense succes, the band decided to play more than just This Ain't A Love Song, like they did during most shows in Europe. When the tour started, the band only played This Ain't A Love Song, but when it ended, each night about 6 or 7 songs from These Days were played. Although the merchandising in the end of 1995 featured mostly These Days pictures, the tour was still called 1995 tour, and part of the initially planned Cross Road tour.
The real These Days tour was really short. Only 28 dates or something. An American leg was in the works, but the band had become tired of touring and cancelled the entire plan before it was released. The setlist posted in the beginning of this topic is the one from my own site, and not really true. It's the one I tried to figure out too, but never really got it right. I started digging again and came up with this:
1. Helter Skelter
2. Hey God
3. Livin' On A Prayer
4. You Give Love A Bad Name
5. Keep The Faith
6. These Days
7. (It's Hard) Letting You Go
8. Bed Of Roses
9. Someday I'll Be Saturday Night
10. Something For The Pain
11. Blood Money
12. Blaze Of Glory
13. Lay Your Hands On Me
14. I'll Sleep When I'm Dead
~ Papa Was A Rolling Stone
15. Bad Medicine
16. Shout
Encore:
17. Wanted Dead Or Alive
18. Blood On Blood
19. This Ain't A Love Song
Based upon the tracklists of various CD Singles, bootleg information and past setlists, this is as close as you can get. Blood On Blood was used in encores in Australia, and Dry County wasn't played anymore, unlike I listed before. (It's Hard) Letting You Go was played in South Africa according to the singles and is featured from this night in the middle of the set, just like what they did in Australia. Rockin' In The Free World probably opened the other night, since it was either Helter Skelter or Rockin' In The Free World that opened the show at the end of the leg in North America (the previous leg before South Africa). I know Hackster asked the same question on my own board, so I hope this clears it up.
