3.Stadium shows roll around, and only half the people that went to the arena shows buy tickets, as well as die hards from overseas thinking it will be so cool to see them in a stadium. Stadium holds 60,000, and they maybe sell 35,000 tickets.

Part of me is starting to think Jon is somewhat mentally handicapped. It's not rocket science. Give the people what they want, and they will come. Half ass your way through a 2 song encore of Wanted and Prayer, and people will stop wasting their money.

I'm bummed, man. I used to get SO pumped for a Jovi show. Now I have hardly any excitement at all. I'm looking forward to meeting some people and hanging out with a few friends. As for the show themselves, I expect very little, especially after the half-ass show in Hershey.

This is what they did on the soundcheck according to a backstage member from the Dutch board:

We Weren't Born To Follow
Raise Your Hands
Superman Tonight
Dry County (different lyrics)
Something For The Pain
Love For Sale
Someday I'll Be Saturday Night

Jon also asked the backstagers to make a list with 5 songs. According to the BSWJBJ member If I Was Your Mother and Damned where requested quite a few times.

I know for a fact that HAND had to in there somewhere, unless they did two soundchecks. (They played footage of it on the news out here) And seriously IIWYM? Off all the songs they haven't done, why that one? LOL

When love is blood you're never on trial

It's an AWESOME song. But I don't believe Jon can sing it.

I'm still waiving the SIIS banner proudly. =p
Honestly, IIWYM is one of only 3 songs on KTF (along with Fear and I Want You) that just don't do it for me.
Now I Believe, now that would be nice
That's probably my #1 DREAM Live song as of now.

'Damned' would wake up Richie though giving him something to pay attention too while playing. Maybe he will even be exhausted after the song cause Jon turned off the auto-pilot mode for 5 minutes !

I salute you,

Give me songs I don't want to hear for $1200 Alex

Although I can see them whipping out Summertime with the weather we're going to have this week.

Good luck to all those in attendance.

Lets hope tonight's show kicks off the unpredictable exciting leg of The Circle tour.
