The printed setlist is not entirely accurate. They didn't played Seven Years Gone, According to You, How do You Sleep and Doves Cry and played Voodoo Child.
About the mix, in the first three songs Richie's guitar was low and his vocals in the first song were barely audible. He and Takumi got confused in some songs about which guitar he would use, too. They clearly need to work in some technical stuff for the following shows, but nothing too critical.
The percussionist was a local guy invited to play with them, but the other guys are not.

I have to say that although these performances are far from perfect, it's nice to hear some Bon Jovi songs being performed with energy... RnR doesn't have to be perfect as long as it's real and that's how these are coming across to me... He needs to ditch the girl or at least tape her mouth shut...
Jon could really really use Richie right now to help him vocally... He could mask so much more with Richie behind him.. It's not the guitar playing that I miss... It's the harmonies... That's what Bon Jovi always was to me... It's the harmonies between Jon & Richie and even having Richie take a verse once in a while...
Hypothetical... But if Richie is so desperate to be a front man, now is a good opportunity for Jon to give him more vocally because based on what I'm hearing from Jon, I don't know how in the world he'll be able to get through another world tour with that voice...
