After Munich its possible, but I have always expected this show to be shorter than the other shows. Id be happy to be proved wrong, but I also believe HRC are hyping it up as many London based BJ fans will have seen the band over the last few years. Either way we should get a decent setlist and Im going to enjoy it as a swansong for a few years no matter what.

Damn right it Was, IBTFY from that night remains the best version I've heard of that song. Jons energy levels that night were unbelievable, as soon as I saw him in the "lift" on the intro I knew he was up for it. Ten years on Thurs that show was, where did that go?!

Carli, that video of the band standing in the lift was pre recorded. Are you aware of that?

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

Yeah but this actually showed Jon just before he came on stage that night, he did something that he didn't do at Hudders and Cardiff on that tour, teasing the crowd.

Posted on the HRC main site:

The excitement in our glorious capital is building and this year’s Hard Rock Calling will see some amazing performances right in the heart of bustling London. After two years of silence, The Killers return to headline with an exciting performance set to wow crowds on Friday 24th June. Grammy-Award winning rockers Bon Jovi will be performing a three hour set for fans on Saturday 25th June, while living legend Rod Stewart headlines Sunday 26th June performing all his most loved hits, joined special guest and queen of rock ‘n’ roll Stevie Nicks.

Looks like we may be gettin the 3hr set after all

I just clicked on the DC vid in your sig. Hadn't seen it before (except on the night) Didnt realise just how good it was, to busy singing along i guess. But it was bloody awesome.

At least you will get to hear it, as i have a feeling it will be special.
