I was there and it was a memorable and magic night! Richie isn't the only factor in a BJ show that does or doesn't create magic. If he is for you that's totally fine, but you should accept that it doesn't have to be this case for everyone else around here.
It takes many things for a great night - an amazing audience (check), great setlist with a lot of variaton and the "wow" factor (check), passionate performances of the songs (check) and everyone giving his all and showing that he truly wants to be there. All that was given last night and even if I think Richie could have added that little more it was without a doubt head to head with the best show I've seen so far (which was Munich 2003, but I've seen 9 others including Mannheim 2011 and Frankfurt 2008 as well).

I had my doubts if I still would go to the concert in Milan but seeing what they played in Cologne I am hopeful again!

I salute you,

I agree with that. But in my opinion, Sambora is essential.

Agreed. This was REALLY good!!

Finally, the setlist we've been waiting for!

I'd Die for You was great, mostly because Bobby didn't play the solo. Wild is the Wind was also pretty great, and so was This Ain't a Love Song. Hopefully we can get decent soundboard versions of these from Hyde Park.

Then please, start a Richie Sambora fan forum.

Is essential in Bon Jovi. You should make a forum for Jon, David, Tico, Bobby and Phil.

Ok man, we respect your opinion. But that doesn't mean you have to reply to every person that states that he/she had a good show without Richie, and tell them how much it sucks now that Richie is not there. We know what you think already. It's starting to get really annoying.

I second that. I'll go to bed with the word essential in my mind. Sambora essential Sambora essential Sambora essential Sambora essential. You look like a bot rolo
