Düsseldorf 2006: The return of Dry County!!! This show was for me the highlight of the Have A Nice Day Tour. A really special show with good performances and a great audience.

Dublin 2006: A nice and solid show. Croke Park is such a good venue, and the audience rocked. The mexican wave quite a few times . Dry County again!!!

Nijmegen 2006: I was first row for the first time and very tired. The show was crap! Quite a few This Left Feels Right songs, yuk!

Milton Keynes 2006 (1st night): A very drunk Richie Sambora!! A very good show with the Boys Are Back In Town and Livin' In Sin. Although Jon sounded like crap on Livin' In Sin especially in the chorus. Too bad Jon decided to play Livin' In Sin instead of Dry County.

Milton Keynes 2006 (2nd night): Richie broke every record, being drunk 2 shows in a row! Congratulations Mr Sambo! This was a nice show and it was very cool to hear Rocking In The Free World and Wild In The Streets. Although Jon should be shot for playing the TLFR crap at the shows...

East Rutherford 2006 (1st night): Oh man, the homecoming show! It was awesome and the setlist was a bit weird probably because of the weather - thunder and lightning.

East Rutherford 2006 (2nd night): This was a superb show, I remember Jon's speech during Dry County, kickass!
Aprrox. How much did this trip cost?

I hate to admit it, but I spent £3,000 on going to see BJ last summer (11 gigs in 4 countries). Although, to be fair, that did include a awesome 2 week holiday in NY and NJ as well Like Kathleen said...worth every penny

HAND tour in Düsseldorf: Jon walked up to the microphone: "This is for the diehard fans" and the intro to Dry County followed. I was out of my mind. I couldnt believe what I saw/heard. Absolutely incredible. The whole show was amazing.

Being in hyde park for my first ever gig with 92999 other people and just being mesmerised. only knowing about 3 of the songs yet loving every single one. having a lump in my throat when 'never say goodbye' ended and it was over....and then buying every album soon after...
waking up at 6am on the weekend sitting by the radio listening out for a cue to call and winning bon jovi onstage passes, running the 100 metres faster than i ever had to run and tell everyone i new...
having the hairs on the back of my neck stand on end as the whole of hampden park takes the word's right out of Jon's mouth at the start of 'LOAP'...
hearing the opening chords to Dry County at manchester and scremaing 'yes you ****ing beauty' and getting alot of disapproving looks from people around me, but not caring at all...
having richie throw his plectrum out and i get it, and of course forever thinking he was aiming it specifically for me...
being at o2 and after hull having my faith well and truly re-stored...
having ringing ears and a terrible sore throat, and being tired and emotional but still singing as loud as i can to 'If i was your mother' on the journey home...

I remember the first Bon Jovi show, it was my first concert. It was great.
I also remember leaving subsequent Bon Jovi shows with a bitter taste in my mouth because they failed to play In These Arms.
