I wouldn't hate it, I love all the eras of the band so I'd enjoy everything

Or would you want them to continue playing 15 songs from their last 3 albums.

Sorry, I do not they play a lot of songs of their big albums. Maybe this tour there're less but Slippery and New Jersey have always been present, the same with Keep The Faith, is not like they forget it. They're playing less songs now in this tour, but is something new, The Circle was full of old stuff, same with Live 2011.
Also, I have more interest in listening stuff from Bounce than Born To Be My Baby or In These Arms for the 29304823904th time. I'd hate it. I want a more balanced setlist, I like the post-2000 stuff but not the tracks they're playing. Take down In These Arms and BTBMB for once and bring another old songs, one tour without playing them won't kill nobody, take down Bed Of Roses and bring back Lie To Me, I don't know, there's a bunch of songs to rotate before doing something so desperate like this.
Also, I don't think Aerosmith put a stunning show, the one I went was good, but short IMO. It wasn't stunning at all, just a good show.

Also, this is not an excuse for you to write out your dream setlist. We have enough of those threads.

Oh... crap.
Well, another idea is, they're coming to their "Bon Jovi" album 30th anniversary. Why not start doing something like this:
2014th tour: World Wide. Bunch of new songs with some hits, whole Bon Jovi album, hits to close.
2015th tour: The same with 7800, or don't do it and take a rest. I love this album but it's been irrelevant.
2016/17 tour: The same with Slippery.
2018/19/20/21 tour: The same with KTF.
And like this up with These Days... or more albums if they want.
