Yes, I was shocked! I don't really like the song (I just kept on whining about it after Munich 2011) and thought to myself "God, not this again" and then I was almost blown away by how good it was and how much I've enjoyed it.

Who Says was fun for me this time 'cause I was chasing the balloons flying around in the GC.

Someone mentioned the crowd in the GC being lame... I got lucky this time (unlike 2011), I guess. Almost everyone around me was dancing and singing along. There was one girl who didn't find my jumping and dancing amusing... Not that I cared much.

All in all, like most of you have said, it's not the same without Richie, but I won't diss the rest of the band while they're giving it their all. And that's exactly what they did yesterday.

Funny.. I thought the solo was great. I guess it sounds so bad to you because it's not 'the solo' that you've heard about a hundred times. However, 'the solo' is one of my favorite solos ever so it's great that Phil promised to sound closer to that in the future.

Okay now I'm officially pissed off. This is the setlist I wanted to hear in Sofia. Instead of 3hrs 7 mins, however, I got 1h 57mins. Obviously Jon has established double standards when evaluating each crowd.....

Dumb ****, you would have gotten a lot of more songs if your air wasn't full of shit.

For Jon to still be singing the end of Always like that with no music to hide behind, it really impresses me. It's not perfect vocals but the fact that he gets the job done with barely any music backing him up is a great effort of courage.

The air had pollen, not shit. In case you don't know, our trees bloom in the spring.

It wasn't Jon's fault.

But it wasn't the crowd's fault, either.

Yet, it was the fans that got screwed up in the end. If we were getting a Bon Jovi show every time they come to Europe, I could live with a bit of a bad luck. Unfortunately, this is not the case.

P.S. I have no idea how this problem should have been solved. A short show was definite disappointment, though.

Easy now, we all know there's no way Sofia would've gotten anything like Munich, this double standard Jon has going for certain audiences isn't really something new now, is it?

Salaam Aleikum,

I agree with you Seb. However, do you remember the setlist from the Bucharest show in 2011? We got Dry County, These Days, Always, Blood on Blood, Saturday Night, In These Arms...all in one show. This setlist was very close to the one in Munich, wasn't it? Sofia would have gotten something similar had it not been for the stupid allergy thing. Which is why I find it very hard to reconcile my mind to our misfortune.

What is the cell phone thing? I've seen two shows without Richie this tour but don't recall anything about cell phones.

Yes, I remember Bucharest suddenly getting such a special set, but that one really was a surprise. Munich, London and Dublin always get the longer shows whereas other cities, much like Bucharest, will just have to wait and see. Last European Tour really was something else when looking at setlists though, pretty much every show had something and I'm positive would Richie have been there, Jon would've started mixing up the main set a bit more, thus you'd have been given a surprise or 2 in the main set as well.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan
