Well, that stadium max capacity for concerts is 49.500. Everything was sold out from months but the GA that still had a "few tickets". But no source says the attendance.

The infield was a standing area?
I'm just curious because I had remembered that shows in Buenos Aires had to be seated due to the statics of the buildings around. Wasn't this an issue a few years ago? Or I might have mixed that up with another city...

You guys can live in denial as much as you want...enjoy!
Here we go... Another ****ing list of all the elite rock stars who still sing amazing and move on stage... How about we do it right and put together a list of one's who can't and then compare where Jon falls...

I think that was in 2010 when they played at River Plate Stadium
Maybe ezearis can confirm that

Its amazing,the bands energy,I havent seen David as happy as here for many years,the crowd,everything
Jon runs the crowd like very few others,his voice has improved a lot since NA leg
But,always there gonna be something to criticize...
WTF is that???

Jon Bon Jovi, the kick-ass rock 'n' roll frontman, is still there! His voice is still shot which is a shame of course, but if he'll someday be able to maintain this kind of energy throughout more than one song per show, I couldn't care less. I just want this Jon back all the way.

Let's sack the debate going on between rdkopper and Thinny and focus on the show!

It looked like a brilliant atmosphere! From what I've seen, Jon is still off a lot on the vocals but seemed more confident. I seen him move from the mic in Raise Your Hands and Born To Be My Baby which is a start. It wasn't much but it's a start. Obviously he moved around on Bad Medicine a lot too...

Things can get better. Jon needs to move around some more because I feel like he sounds better when he is. As soon as he is back at the mic he is hanging onto it and it's not sounding as good.

The band sound excellent! If Jon can get sorted, we could have a good European tour next year.

I agree and I gotta say that the Wanted performance was vocally probably the best one since mid/late 2013.

Wanted was indeed very decent. RYH is also better than earlier this year.

But then again he started the NA leg better than he finished it, so I don't expect it to be much better long term, it's just Jon being rested and giving his 120%, which is not sustainable.
