I disagree. In the US, Lost Highway is the biggest hit of the 2000s for the band. Crush has a few numbers up on it (not much), but at the same time, record sales in 2000 were much, much different than in 2007. If you take into account the iTunes and downloading era, Lost Highway is the biggest Bon Jovi CD since Cross Road in the US. Pretty big if you ask me. Plus, Make a Memory was the highest debuting single for the band, so they had hype for the album and then the tour was huge.

I firmly believe the band knows what they are doing when it comes to picking their sets. They know, for sure, about this board and the disappointment with some. I still believe things will pick up. I am ready to see what they have in store for Europe... just wish I could afford to see a show over there.
