I didn't even realize that they hadn't done any ballads over there.

The crowd seemed okay, I was quite far back...
Thats the thing the European tour started off so well theyve got alot to live up to. Surely they must realise TLFR is an utter flop judging from the reaction on here, I cant recall one positive review of TLFR songs. They better get back on track for this weekend.

This picture shows how bored Thierry was....... :P

For myself, I really enjoyed the show, but that is maybe because of the thoughts I had about it upfront. This was my last show and probably the last one that I could queue up for so early, so no matter what would happen and no matter what the setlist would look like, I wanted to make it a party and really enjoyed it. I had a very good spot in the middle of the front row, which made it even more special. I have some special memories to this show that noone can take away from me. So despite all the negative reviews, I am still enjoying the memories! I have some great pictures and video's, the band was in a great mood, it didn't rain during the show and I've met some great people.

That was Bon Jovi for me this year, goodbye, so long, I'm moving on

After all the show wasn't worth being queued up for. The beginning of the show was pretty good, especially Welcome To Wherever You Are was a nice treat. I kinda felt bored after Have A Nice Day. I am trying to like Who Says You Can't Go Home but I felt dragged of it. It's My Life was played way too slow. After It's My Life the worst part of the show came, the This Left Feels Right versions of Bed Of Roses and I'll Be There For You. I was convinced they wouldn't try these songs in Europe but they did. I was so pissed off that they played these versions that I kinda lost interest in the rest of the show, I got bored and I wanted to go home. Although Bad Medicine was nice with a little bit of Gloria put into it. Raise Your Hands was ok but it's always is.

The encore was pretty predictable and way too long for my opinion. The show was lacking some kind of energy. We went home after the show was over and I was pretty pissed off by the lame setlist and the fcuking This Left Feels Right songs.

If I would rate this show it wouldn't be more than a 4 out of 10. It was my worst Bon Jovi show ever!

yeah well think yourself lucky you even got to see them! ungreatful piece of work you are...
