First night of the Australian Lost Highway Tour, and as far as I'm aware, it's the first sold out show of the tour (correct me if I'm wrong). The last time Bon Jovi did a proper show in Australia was 18/11/95, 13 years ago!

As usual feel free to post reviews, Play by Play, or anything else about this show that you like. As soon as bonjovi.com confirms the setlist i will post it below.

Setlist:

GLAD ALL OVER - Dave Clark Five cover tune
LOST HIGHWAY
JUST OLDER
YOU GIVE LOVE A BAD NAME
RAISE YOUR HANDS
RUNAWAY
SUMMERTIME
CAPTAIN CRASH AND THE BEAUTY QUEEN FROM MARS
IN THESE ARMS
(YOU WANT TO) MAKE A MEMORY
WHOLE LOT OF LEAVIN'
BORN TO BE MY BABY
WE GOT IT GOIN' ON
IT'S MY LIFE
BAD MEDICINE W/ SHOUT
I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU - RICHIE VOX
HAVE A NICE DAY
KEEP THE FAITH
I'LL SLEEP WHEN I'M DEAD ~ JUMPIN JACK FLASH
WHO SAYS YOU CAN'T GO HOME
LIVIN' ON A PRAYER

ENCORE:

I LOVE THIS TOWN
TWIST & SHOUT

Good luck Aussies, you may get a few "rarities" like Wild In The Streets, In These Arms and Blood On Blood and only if Jon is in a really good mood you may get also Keep The Faith...
Anyway, I really hope they'll play something different for the Australian fans. I really doubt it, but who knows...We'll see...

Is the outlook really that bad?

I haven't read many of the tour reviews......well not any really.

Wouldn't a "lazy" singer be one that wouldn't have toured this record at all. And you are paying to see this lazy singer 6 times, unless you've decided to sell your tickets.

Well..if unbridled exuberance is anything to go by and can 'lift' an artist...the crowd at the Myer Music Bowl ought to be in for a great night [I hope]

This is just my 2 cents worth, but I think Perth is the city that may get the 'specials'..haven't been there since '93, '95's show cancelled, this is in a true outdoor stadium setting, forecast for Friday is warm - 27-28'c and it is the day before Australia Day [and I will be there so I'd be rapt if that were the case]

Deb I agree with you. I hate when people make comments about Jon's voice only to see that they are going to 4 or more shows.
