I was at the show last night! Let me start out by saying that in the past, I would take alot of pictures. This time I only did that when they sang the very few songs I don't enjoy the most. So, I was able to watch the band interaction and Jon way more than usual and I'm glad I made that choice. Jon was very energetic and interacted alot with the band (even Tico). I think he truly was having a great time. Crowd was very lively and Jon said it was "honestly" better than NJ. Many of the crowd was even enjoying LH, WLOL, and BTF. If they were to replace songs, I would much rather it be LH and BTF. I really like WLOL. IMHO, I think alot of the YT and FB videos are really off on the sound, because I thought he sounded really good on BOR and IBTFY. I saw them in 2013 and honestly thought it was about the same as then sound wise.
On to the best part, when Jon went out to sing BOR he walked right in front of me twice. I was in the 2nd row, but the kind lady and gentleman in front of me said it was ok for me to stand beside them when he came back so I took a quick hop over the seat and squeezed in between them.Quick suggestion, if anyone else tries to do that in the future do it right away. I would of used the stairs but they put garbage pails out to block the stairway and wouldn't let anyone coming back from there potty/drink breaks go back to their seat on the floor until he was done. Others walked down the stairs to get closer looks too. And before anyone says anything rude, yep I'm a Jon girl all the way and wasn't going to let one row difference after 32 years following them, stand in my way. It all payed off in the end and yes Jon took hold of my hand and smiled at me. And I'm darned happy about it. I was almost on that full version video but Jon jumped down and the video taper ended the song before he got to the end where I was.So, if anyone finds any full version BOR please put them here. I haven't found any anywhere yet. And also right before the encore I think, someone from BJ security came over to my seat and gave me a guitar pick. Do they always come out and give picks to people on the sides of the arena? I'm just curious about that because I thought only people on the floor by the stage got them? Also what is the difference in the colors? Mine is white and says Bon Jovi. Anyway, just had to share my story and yep no one needs to tell me I'm crazy because I already know I am!
