Default Manchester, old trafford, bounce tour REVIEW

It was a warm summers day in the heart of manchester the atmosphere was electric inside old trafford before the show, the atmosphere spread throughout the whole of manchester, bon jovi wer in town.
i entered the stadium 2 hours before bon jovi wer set to play, i patiently waited not knowing wot was to be expected, except it being one of the best nights of my life.
live warmed the crowd up althoough i didnt think that they wer too good so i fcused my attnetion to the technician who was making last minuit changes to the lights (he was amazing).
suddenly the lights went out i looked up an saw tico step up into the drums , then dave and hugh, i was extatic it was amazing the crowd cheered as richie strolled on holding his gibson les paul i knew it bounce was the opening song. the band then played there was one thing missing jon? were was he?
suddenly right on que jon ran on stage singing the opening line of bounce the crowd cheered i stood in awe it was amazing!!!!!!
bounce finished the crowd wer now ready for the ride of there life next jon plzyed runaway and after it he remarked,'manchester england eh?,' the crowd went wild ,' im just taking in the sites cos i aint seen anythin as beautiful in all my life' as soon as jon said this the crowd appreciated it and shown ther respect and joy by loud screams an applauses it was AMAZING.
the night steadily progressed with all the hits such as livin on a prayer wanted saturday night and keep the faith, not only the classics wer played joey and everyday wer also played with confidence and pride and not forgetting the distance were jon gave a special mention to the local footbal team manchester united and shown how u need to go the distance wiith your team through thick and thin and even compared them to his home team NJ giants!!!!! there was also another special mention for david beckham how his wife victoria asked jon if he could bend it like beckham, there was only 1 answer jon could give it was, BABY I CAN TIE IT IN KNOTS!!!!!!!
jon was sooooooo cool that night i will never forget it i went home buzzing i had left my voice in manchester that night singing along to every song it was a 14 year olds dream!! i will be deffinatley going the next tour which could be plzyed at manchester because jon promised how he would come bak and visit
it was clear that all the band members enjoyed the night even richie because he got to sing ill be there for you infront of 70,000 people!!!

i hope that you have enjoyed reading my review and it has sparked even more goood memories to come alive again if you have any commments i would be grateful to recieve them, good or bad!!!

your friend GAZ THOMAS

this was one amazing concert, great atmosphere, stunning stadium, my god didn't they rock the theatre of dreams, and getting near the front of the fan club area was even better, was almost deaf for a day afterwards had no voice or nothing hahaha and i had to do it all over again at Hyde Park 2 days later, amazing when they did an extended version of Born to be my baby, and richie doing i'll be there for u and also David singing part of In These arms, my favorite bit was when they played Undivided that song along with it's my life is my favorite live.

For me the best song that night was unquestionably....Someday I'll Be Saturday Night - definitely the best performance of that song I've heard.

Better than Munich 2001?

It was indeed a great show and the crowd were fantastic. I think even the band were suprised with how loud they were!

That show should be remembered for one of Jons most memorable quotes

"Posh Spice asked me if I can bend it like Beckham and I said baby I can tie it in a knot"

Quite funny for Jon I thought.

Great show and for me, better than Hyde Park.

"This is hallowed ground right here, i guess, i guess the equivillent to New Jersey Gaints Stadium. So Posh Spice says to me 'Can you bend it like Beckham'? I said 'Baby I can Tie it in a knot!' That my friend, is stick!"
