I'll say what the **** I like and you'll have to like it without acting like a little girl.

ok, lets be adult about this, what shows u been too?

Jon Bon Jovi often refers back to old setlists when planning each night's show. He looks at recent concerts and previous years at the same venue.

Thats BS. Take London for example: Dry County, Always, Wanted, Prayer, These Days and Blood on Blood were all in the encore in 2011. If he did check that out, why did he do almost the same encore ?

Maybe because that encore went over well in 2011.

Then there's the ones who have been to one show in their lives and moan that the band aren't playing any rare songs!!! I mean ffs they then wank themselves silly because because they read on a setlist that Garageland was played like it's made any difference to them except it's some different letters on a computer screen.
And then there's the miserable “diehards”

who despite them being in a minority at a show think they should hear what they want to hear to the point that DC and TD isn't enough for them and Jon should notice them in a crowd and know what the **** they want to hear and he,ll know exactly what song to play to make them all happy at once.
Rant over……………for now.

Perfect statement!!!!

Well, I've only see them once and that's exactly why I'm complaining. In 15 years, they've only come once to Argentina, one single gig, and that means I want to take the most of them. There're a lot of songs that a whole demographic of a country never heard live because of this and I'd be awesome if they could play something really different every time they come.

And the different letters on a computer screen comment is something really stupid, it makes a difference. If they play different songs in a lot of gigs and shake up the setlist, that means that probably the next gigs will have the same treatment and have more chances to have a good or different selection of songs. If the setlists are the same night after night after night after night, probably your gig will have the same setlist the night before had, with maybe 2 or 3 more songs if you're in a "lucky country" or "lucky city". Simple logic.

Oh, the videos can sum up a night really well. It's year 2013, we have phones that record video in 1080p and have several microphones to provide a good record of audio, you can see how packed the gig was, how the crowd was and can even judge Jon's voice and performance during the songs. So yeah, it's not the same because you're not there living the whole experience, but to judge something specific, videos should make it.
