Maybe they got huffy when they heard about the security thing.

Anyway, since JBJ didn't even bother to get there until today, I agree with DaveK about how much effort was gonna be put into the setlist.

Agreed ...

I also like Denim jackets and bandanas - not necessarily in that order.

ETA: Neurotica, it was certainly not cool to like BJ in 95 in the States. Or ever really. Not that I cared.
That was in the states when grunge killed BJ. They were as popular as ever over here, 3 sold out nights at Wembley hitting their peak. At school it was a much cooler alternative to Take that and the rest of the boybands, they were on mtv europe non stop. So yes, we have had a bit of nostalgia tonight but I'm Not looking back through Rose tinted glasses either.

I know. That era was great, didn't need TT to make them look any better, youch.


But this certainly isn't Marilyn Monroe to me lol:

You can say what you want but I think JBJ could have aged/styled himself a lot worse. I can't be one of those who are outraged that he is embarrassed about the 80s, he looked like a dumbass during everything but maybe the end of NJ and that's a stretch.

Sorry but this video makes me feel 14 again, at least all the attention for Jon was deserved back then!
Yeap, me too.

This is what the Greeks got after being "finally" the first time the band plays there, and Jon saying in every interview (that fitted) Greece was one of the countries he really wanted to play?

Wow! I bet they loved it anyway, because better this than nothing, and may be that's why no need to go the extra mile,
