That was a great show, even if I wasn't even near the first row.

The sad thing is that they will never even match that anymore. I'm glad I got to see them then.

First, I have to admit that I sure loved the dramatic opening with Lay Your Hands On Me on the NJ tour, with all the bombs and smoke and everything, Jon grabbing the microphone stand and running all over the stage during the verses...

The guitar Jon was playing on the song certainly didn´t reduce the energy and brilliance of that performance!
Great post! I was completely checked out on Bon Jovi at that point as I was preoccupied with College life. I missed out on all of that.
