This will be the first UK tour ive missed since 1990 and after reading some reviews about their last few shows being on autopilot Im a 100% convinced I did the right thing.

The show will be great for "non" fans but for me its time they packed up for a fews years and had a break.

Looks like this is also my first missed tour in 16 years....
Still deciding whether or not to go ahead and buy tickets for HRC. On one hand we want to go as it looks like this could be the last tour for a few years. On the other hand, 60000 people, flat venue with no seating (other than VIP). We can't get there much before about 7pm, so would be right at the back.

Looked at going to Bristol, but tickets are even more expensive than for Hyde Park!!!

The last 3 shows have all been fantastic though.

Not what Im ready and its the same tour as I saw at the 02 a year ago.

Im not like some who just want to go to see them when in town so they can say they have seen them X amount of times.

Of all the venues Ive seen the band Hyde Park is the worst - for reasons you have listed and a lot more. Awful venue.

I agree, the only good thing about it is its location.

I'd like to hear them open with One wild night, would bring back memories of a cracking tour.

Twas indeed a great tour, MK Bowl one of the best BJ shows/no, one of the best shows i,ve been to. The man was on fire that show and remember him wearing big baggy army combats and a silly hat and all the females around me going "will he get changed soon?"

I still maintain the OWN tour was the best one of them all since Crush. The BJTV elevator intro and the fact Lay Your Hands On Me was played with Tico's intro. Why they insist on skipping that I will never know?? Any ideas anyone?

It's entirely possible that they could play 3 hours, they did in Munich yesterday. However, I fear that the promoters are overselling it. Really as the headliner they have a start time and the end time is up to the artist, and I'm afraid that fans are going to expect a 3 hour set and Jovi will only play a standard-length set (not to say standard setlist, just standard length) of about 2 to 2.5 hours.
