I'm still having difficulty in understanding why they don't have AOD as a permenant fixture for this tour?

Does anyone have any video of Blood on Blood? I had a BOB sign and during the song Jon pointed at us and smiled and would love to have a video of that.
It was a fantastic show but that was the highlight! We put the signs up during Radio saved my life and we saw Richie & Dave look at them (we were sitting very close to the stage - Section 19) then they played it & we went insane!

Great show can't wait for tonight even though my tickets aren't as good. I wonder if they will back that set list up tonight.

Hey, long time lurker, went to the gig last night and was totally blown away. I was a little concerned after reading recent reviews but the band really delivered last night. The whole band were really into it and enjoying themselves. The crowd was insane.
As for the setlist, very happy. No rare stuff but a very solid set and to be realistic they aint gonna come out and play a set full of B sides or non-singles. The only time the crowd seemed to switch off was when Richie sung These Days...I love Richie and I love These Days but it just didn't seem to work.
Anyway bring on tonight, if it's half as good as last night I'll be a very happy BJ fan.

Dan.

You. haven't. seen. it. live. You. haven't. been. at. a. show. it. was. played. at.

Mind boggling!! How can YOU say at what point a show has a "Downer" when you're sitting in a chair, in front of a computer?

The downer factor is simply this (and I don't feel this way at all):
90% of casual fans don't want to hear Richie sing a song, no matter the song.
In any case, Richie's TD went over quite well the two times I heard it live.
