I think they've changed it up way more than I anticipated. Obviously it could be more, but outside of the David-less night, they've done a lot of mixing.

Without being there, I'd say June 19th was the best- certainly will be remembered as a classic show. The 2nd Night was also pretty outstanding. I agree with Seb that they could be doing more, but frankly they're doing a lot more than I figured they were going to do. It's a far cry from the disgrace that was the Newark Stand. I would have to grade it a B/B+.

Hell, 19th June was the best show I've seen since 2000.....

Slightly disappointed that we didn't get These Days or Dry County, but you can't have everything.
My daughter is gutted that they did I Love This Town last night (she's only 6), so we're hoping it comes out again on Friday night.

I think your opinion will also be swayed by where you sat and the atmosphere around you.

I would have to rate it as a Success,granted they promised full album nights but they did almost play all of slippery and New Jersey over the nights.IF they only had re-assesed the pricing system it would have been a bigger success.Hope they have learned from it.

Toss up between Night 2 and the 17th June shows for me so far. Personal experience would go to the 17th, but for performance, setlist and crowd Night 2 takes it at the moment.

All I know is that the show without David was terrible and predictable as hell. I go for night 3 as the best one.

I agree with most here - they should've mixed it up a lot more and not playing the same staple songs every time - I'll Sleep When I'm Dead, Whole Lot Of Leavin' etc.

I just put on the Jovi iTunes playlist I made at the start of the tour - essentially the setlist I would most like to see if I ended up at a show.

It didn't seem at all likely then, but now almost actually feels like a realistic possibility for one of the remaining shows.

Okay, I included "Rosie" which was a stretch, but apart from that it coudl all happen.
