Nice to see TIMS though.
You will have fun anyway Sandi

To have a dozen different covers possible would be the only thing to make it pretending to be spontaneous.
Well all thing depends on what you want anyway .... BM is *THE* Jon entertainer song anyway so it's not going to change
I haven't seen them this tour yet, but a couple of yt videos, and last tour it was the same with ISWID. I don't care if it's spontaneous, the cover song alone makes some good fun. And they have been playing about 6 different songs in BM, that's kinda OK. First the regular was "Roadhouse Blues", now it's "Pretty Woman", so I say: whatever works. They wouldn't do it if they weren't having fun with it. And it's the first time in over 20 years they play different covers in BM than "Shout", so what the heck?
If you go to a musical or go see a comedian, everything is scripted to (to some extent). I see this part as an entertaining highlight of the show, and most of the people haven't seen it before. Better then just skipping that part at all.

Aloha !

The cover song saves Bad Medicine for me, the same goes for Sleep. If Jon desperately wants to play both songs please add something to them that hasn't been overdone on previous tours. It's a shame that once again he seems to stick to the same cover song and has started playing it safe with this. Bad Case Of Lovin' You worked a lot better than Pretty Woman does now. If you're bitching about Bad Medicine not being spontaneous you might as well bitch about the entire show because spontanety is a rare thing at a Bon Jovi show. In fact, it's always been that way so I don't see the point in bitching about it when it comes to Bad Medicine.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

But what about people who are afraid to go on planes? think about those people and stop being so judgmental.

are your serious ?
they can drive to florida .... 9000$ that's a lot of money .. sorry to be judgmental but to pay that money is *mental* ....

I hate to fly but wouldn't pay 9000$ ... it's judgmental maybe but to pay 9000$ to a scalper for a show to me is insane

It's a shame really.. The band really put a lot into it too, and let's not forget the fact that uh.. It's a kick-ass song!
