If you really think only American audiences would miss Prayer and IML, you're nuts.

No he's not. Bands in Europe can easily get away with not playing their biggest hits.

It's a little extreme about Who says too. That absolutely NO ONE wants to hear it live. Obviously it's one of the reasons the casual fan is there.

You're honestly telling me you think they could drop LOAP, and people wouldn't care?

They'd care, but as long as there's Bad Medicine, Bad Name and so on people would think "oh well, you can't have it all". No harm done. Anyone who thinks that an average crowd would leave unsatisfied after 2 hours of (an average) Bon Jovi show is deluded. There'll be plenty of other hits, you don't need to play them all.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

That would be true. And Bruce can get away with not playing BITUSA. Or he may even open a stadium concert with an acoustic version of it and people are still happy.

I think they could get away with dropping everything except Prayer.

It's still got to be the most played Bon Jovi song anywhere. And even for me, who's heard it a million times, there is something very special when the intro to Prayer starts at a Bon Jovi show.

Prayer and Wanted I think. Maybe it's because where I live, but a lot of people know and love Wanted more than any Bon Jovi song. Wanted and Prayer would be the only song TRULY missed by the majority of people going. And I can't honestly see them dropping either of them. Ever.
