Yeah, I mean, they've only played nearly 3,000 shows together as a band.

Yes. That's exactly what I meant. Well done.

Look, they've got to see what they can perform well and need to do this in environments where the crowd will allow it. They need to see what songs they can do as well.

Not even ten shows in and people are threatening to sell their tickets is just a joke in my opinion.

Just a thought, wouldn't they be further down this path of self-discovery if they had played more than 23 unique songs over the last 3 shows?

Sorry, I couldn't help myself. That's my last dig about the "last 3 shows."



I make no promises if tonight doesn't go well and it turns into the "last 4 shows," though.

I'm really sorry milomom. I've had to read this many times to get my head round it. I'm tired.

I see your point, but they've got 'Circle' songs to try out, too, and I think they comes first for them. Then the amount of hits/album cuts, too. Setlists certainly haven't changed much, which is not normal as on previous tours they changed two or three every night, but I think they're trying to stave away from album cuts so far.

It's a damn shame indeed. I simply can't help it anymore. Jon hates touring. He has made no bones about that. But he claims that he still loves being on stage. Then for shits, sake, stop being so damn lazy and depending on the show to carry you through. Carry it through yourself Jon. And don't sit there and say "OK, we're playing 'Get Ready' tonight, so we need to cut one song out so we're only playing 22 songs." Show us that this still means something to you and you WANT to be here and you care about the fans!!!

If you were online discussing Bon Jovi in the 90's, you were arguing with Mary Beth... Not Seb. This board didn't exist then and the early version of it wasn't until Crush.

I remember when Seb made you one of his favorite targets. I had a go at you as well. That was only 6 years ago though.
