Meanwhile in LA Richie is tip top! If he had been here he could have taken over vocals on the last few songs himself lol

What a difference 2 years makes. That Bad Name solo was horrible. I could play a better solo than that and I'm not even that good at guitar. The stage looks great, but it can only cover up for so much. This tour has been terrible so far and is showing no signs of improvement.

Never judge an opening night. If jon truly feels less then 100% it aint that bad to not play more than 2h. 2h might be short by bon jovi standards but is pretty long when compairing to most acts.


Setlist will soon return to 24 , 25, or more songs.

I feel very good about the upcoming shows and despite being a richie fan i am really curious to experience a show with phil.

Not to sure if it is wise to give bobby the bad name solo but he aint a bad player, just a total different style of playing.

That is shocking. Time to consider postponing the tour.

The actual set list is missing in these arms somewhere...

What a terrible Bad Name solo! Put Bobby back in cowboy (and a away from the guitar).

I'm surprised people are willing to still believe the setlists I post with not backup source.

What band plays less than 2 hours? The Rolling Stones are in their 70's and their shows have been around 2.5 hours. I saw the Who last year and they played for around 2.5 hours too. I can't think of seeing any major act that played for less than 2 hours, especially at a stadium show. Maybe John Mellencamp or Bob Dylan. U2's shows can be pretty short too but I don't think they're ever below the 2 hour mark. 2 hours is definitely not long compared to most acts, that's for sure.

Does that mean its false?

[liljovi93]

In These Arms was sung by David so I hear.

I can't believe they didn't do a bow. I find that quite disrespectful.

Not looking forward to the rest of the shows if Jon can't sing. He needs a vocal coach.
