Default Songs that you DON'T want to hear in Bounce concerts

Ok folks, another thread by me. Is there any song that you DON'T want BJ to perform during the upcoming tour? If you can state the reasons, all the better!

Mine:

1. Wanted DOA (sick of this song and always thought it's overrated)
2. You Give Love A Bad Name (unless it's reworked acoustically)
3. Lay Your Hands On Me (drags the concert)
4. Sleep When I'm Dead (drags the concert even more and KTF has better songs like In These Arms or Blame It On The Love of RNR)
5. My Guitar Lies Bleeding (makes me sleepy)
6. Something To Believe In (the kicker of OWN. Not only the album was a 1 disc disappointment, Richie n Jon claimed it's ballad free and look what we got, one bad ballad in it. OWN is still the only BJ album I don't have)
7. She's A Mystery (absolutely the worst BJ song ever)
8. Joey (second worst BJ song ever)
9. The Distance (bland)
10. Two Storey Town (don't like this song, too similar to Joan Osbourne)
11. Right Side of Wrong (another bland track)
12. Love Me Back To Life (ditto)
13. Open All Night (let's have You Had Me From Hello or All About Loving You instead)
14. I Got The Girl (so so track)
15. Lie To Me (never liked this ballad)
16. Damned (damn this song)
17. (It's Hard) Letting You Go (song for insomniacs)
18. Diamond Ring (is this even a song???)

Ok, so what songs would you like to hear? You've not left many Bon Jovi songs. I like to hear most of those songs live, but I could agree that some of the earlier songs could do with being made better/different live in some way.

Maybe you shouldn't go to his concert since you know that they will definitely play most of those songs....

Anything besides the ones I listed above
I'm sure they're gonna do Bad Name and Wanted anyway. But I'm sincerely hoping Sleep When I'm Dead is retired.

"Most"?
Let's see. Assume "Most" is more than half. I had 18 songs listed, so if they play at least 10 songs from my list, then I guess it will qualify as "Most".

However, from my list, there are 2 songs that will definitely get played: Wanted and Bad Name. Sleep When I'm Dead and Lay Your Hands usually got played so we'll take them too. 4 songs.

She's A Mystery, Two Storey Town and I Got The Girl are longshots for Bounce tour. They aren't the best songs from Crush and even in Crush tour they weren't mainstays. So I suppose these are out.

Then the Bounce songs that I listed: Joey, Right Side, Love Me Back, Open All Night and The Distance. Five songs. I understand that the Bounce tour will promote Bounce songs. However, there is a bigger possibility that the following songs will be performed over these five: Bounce, Undivided, Everyday, Hook Me Up and Misunderstood. Assuming they play on average 7 songs from Bounce (I'm being generous, I know in the past they did 4-5 new songs), we have now 6 songs from my list.

The last 6 songs in my list are all These Days songs and all of them had never been mainstays during the TD tour. And I'm sure that even if BJ plays something from TD, they won't play more than 2. So now we have 8 songs from my list.

8 is less than 10, so I guess I'll still go and see the band

Always and Blaze of Glory and Open all night.

I also don't want to hear This ain't a love song but I think they won't play it anyway.

Wanted is a must. A BJ-concert is not complete without it.

I do not want to hear Bad Name. I'm SOOOOO sick of it!

I have no desire to hear Richie or Dave sing any solo songs.

I don't think I would miss wan-TED, Bad Medicine and Sleep When I'm Dead either.

I'm not especially fond of Love Me Back to Life, Thank You For Loving Me, or All About Loving You. I think they'd make the show drag.

Lay your hands on me
Bad Medicine
Keep the Faith
Right side of wrong
Joey
You had me from hello
Open all night
Say it isn't so
She's a mystery

I would love to hear Always because i've never heard that live. Also, a fast version of Runaway, Hearts breaking even, Without love, I want you, bounce, the distance, undividedborn to be my baby and all the old classics. Plus, an obscure one; Only Lonely!!

im not particularly fond of all about lovin you
ill sleep when i'm dead is getting old but i guess i can get used to it if its still there

i would like to hear some songs off of these days
i also think it would be kinda cool to start runaway out slow like the crush tour then towards the middle the entire band goes to the electric version until the end

NO: 1. Prayer/Bad Name- not as an opener and not in the concert- Prayer is a must but please without Bad Name-
2. Bad Name alone
3. Born to be my Baby (great song but i've heard that in every bj show i have been to)
4. Wild in the streets (ditto)
5. Wanted (ditto)
6. Open all night
7. any song of CRUSH despite of iml and mystery train (never hear that live)
8. Lay your hands on me
9. Blood on Blood (at least not with the jon acoustic intro)
10. no f*?=/%! cover as bad as Tequila and Twist and Shout as the end of the show

that's quite it... for sure they can't delete all the hits but they should play 60% less of them as they did the past tours- playing less hits makes the few hits they play more special! for sure i'm not against altered versions of the hits like the runaway thing or the prayer thing from the 96 tour
