Default Songs before show starts .....

Anyone recall what song or songs are being played before lights go down ? Ive always assumed Jon chooses these .... I remember in the old days always knowing when a particular song came in you knew it was about to start and you would get fully pumped and excited. An example is back on the faith tour in oz it was Human Touch , Springsteen for every show .... Cant recall other tours ....

On this tour the last song before the show begins seems to be AC/DC´s Hells Bells.

I really liked how in 2010 (at least in O2 residency), they would play the instrumental version of This Is Our House (a song that wasn't released or leaked in any capacity at that point) and when it got played, you could see the die-hards standing up and getting ready for the show, cause they knew that after this song the pre-show intro montage starts

I remember Can't Live Without You - Scorpions being played some time before the opening act in São Paulo, 2010.

On The Circle/GH tour it was This is Our House, and on the later legs of the LH Tour it was Juke Box Hero by Foreigner.

I remember a Frank Sinatra song being played after the show ended, during the Lost Highway Tour. (In the states.)

And, didn't an Aerosmith song signal that the show was about to start, back then, as well?

I think it was, Love in an Elevator? Not positive though.

This is a fun thread, needs more input from the long time die hards with the great memories...

I loved the Crush tour with Woke Up This Morning by Alabama 3. That was a perfect intro song.

Can't remember for the life of me what they had on the These Days tour.

Black Betty was played during the Bounce tour. At
least at the gig I was at anyway.

Don't remember any others I'm afraid!
