Jon sounded good the first songs though although he struggled with Lost Highway. Overall I think the show in Nijmegen was better than this show. I hope tonight will be better.

I hope Jon will use his batphone once more to call Bobby because he is needed. Shanks is a trainwreck his solos are awful. He is playing gorgeous guitars but his sound is shit. Hell I’m missing Bobby’s solo during In These Arms.

Thanks for the honest review, it's a big statement missing Bobby B but I totally agree in having him over Shanks. For me there is no place for him on that stage. Bobby was part of the live shows from 2005?.. his vocals helped a lot too.

Jon is still THE frontman. Yeah vocals were off a bit in places but still a great experience. He had the crowd eating out of his hand. Shanks is pointless but I was impressed with Phil X. Roll on night 2!

Shanks should only be rhythm guitar if he has to be there, no need for him to play any solos.

Glad you enjoyed it, I am doing Wembley and Coventry so will be interesting how both of those compare..

He must dislike Bounce , the Circle, What about not and This House as hardly anything gets played.

To be fair The Circle is awful and what I’ve heard of What About Now is a thoroughly miserable experience.

you aren't wrong but picking the same song from what about now and the Circle each not is boring.. because we can, what's left of me, the fighter, Loves the only rule, superman tonight, when we were beautiful, bounce, the distance, everyday, just older, next 100 years... any of these could be rotated in and add something different, it's a very lazy set list this tour.

22. These Days

...

It's such a shame he can't mix it up, rather than the same basic set we've had for years... below isn't impossible...

01. New Years Day
