So is it safe to assume that whenever a second day in a row is played, the setlist will be shorter and weaker - even in Europe?

Not necessarily in Europe - maybe if there's a ''big'' show the next day such as a London show they might hold back, but for example both nights in Dublin last tour were excellent and featured significantly different setlists each night.

Vegas shows are always shorter due to the casino curfew. I've done Vegas shows in the past but I didn't this time because I knew it would be shorter. My Louisville show had 5 more songs than vegas did.

If memory serves me, the Vegas show on the HAND tour was one of the longer North America shows that tour.

Why rely on your memory when it's so easy to find out?

Oh my god, that setlist is awesome! Where is that Bon Jovi? If you take out the 3 covers and add 3 more Jovi songs and I'd be perfect.

Look at the previous night in Glendale. They got WSYCGH 3 times for video filming in the encore! Lucky them! That's probably around 150 "It's Alrights" in one encore.

Kidding aside, I miss the HAND tour. To me it was better than any tour since it.

See I think both the Lost Highway and Circle tours were much better. Jon sounded pretty terrible on the HAND tour too.
