I don't get that from most of the american crowds! When they got out there everyone on the VIP standed up of their sits, and even threw them away, and went running to the scenario. The security started to push and some like me got hitted. Even Jon had to please ask "everyone to give a few steps back" so they can put the fence that separate the crowd from the scenario and said that he "ain't going anywere" and that "we don't want anyone to get hurt on a Bon Jovi show", after that he didn't cared about the 21 songs setlist and gave us a 27 songs one! Really, the best concert in my life.

yeah but lots of posts with setlists? We all have our fav dream setlist.
lets just leave it be.

Also every gig I go to know is full of cunt5 looking at it through their camera.
What a waste of time.

The thing wasn't to put our dream setlist, the thing was to let the new songs and to do a setlist post-2000 with better flow than the one the band did to prove our points. The one I posted isn't my dream setlist, but is the best post-2000 with songs that they played and would be able to play again that I could come with.

i think we are overeacting, its the first official show, jon will try some things out and improve the flow of the set. we have an almost 2 year tour in front of us and we are here making quick assumptions about everything...the set was bad, we ve seen worse, so simple...
on a positive note, i quite like tha arena stage, and the lighting show during ktf is the best one i ve seen from bj, does anyone agree?

ps.its logical for jon trying to find his pace, he isnt a machine, and maybe some of the hunger is long gone but if he didnt want to be up there and be great he just wouldnt be there, things will improve in no time

Neh, the best one is that from the Bounce era that somebody posted on the YouTube thread, but I gave them kudos for trying something different. Talking about KTF, I love the live version that comes as a B-Side for Real Life.

awesome set list!

Really like the intro into Bad Name. Wasn't sure how they would kick into it but coming off the back of the intro its cool. Having said that it requires Jon to go for it the minute it kicks in not stand in front of his mic otherwise the effect is lost.

Exactly. "Lost Highway" wouldn't be on my dream set list but it's a given that it will be in every concert from now till the end of time.

I like the amount of songs being played from the new album at the moment. Hope they keep that going.

Jon needs to move around a bit more, though. Never seen him stand around so much lately. Drop the guitar and look a bit more into it. It's alright smiling and doing the odd shake of the hips from time to time, but come on! The man is known for being energetic and putting on a great show. I think people could be bored pretty easy if this carries on.

I thought Keep The Faith was very impressive last night. Very impressive!
