I think the LH songs are easy to perform
That style of songs seems to fit Jon 's style well (if he is on his own he will play in the LH style even if it is not really LH songs)
In my opinion LH is comfort songs
And imo LH was more accepted than what it sounded like at first - as a country album- even among the fans (beside the real country market in the usa who said 'no thank you' ) most of the critics tolerated that cd so for Jon there is no reason to not perform that cd heavily at shows. Those songs apparently talk to him more than the older catalogue ...the more LH they do the less they will have to make efforts for other songs they don't fit in anymore as persons (like the Bon Jovi album or fahrenheit - I love those songs but this is not representing what is bon jovi today at all ) the more LH songs is also less hassle for songs they are not sure to perform well (because of a lack of practice)

LH is a SAFE choice I think.


I am not hating that cd at all it is well performed live. But it is too quiet for the fans that love the LOUD Bon Jovi
At some shows they play too much into the safe easy performance by picking up so many songs from that cd ...but also always the same ones

if they like LH , fine , play also the other songs from LH

More than too much LH I think what is annoying is too much of always the same songs .. and too programmed shows

I don't think we can change what Jon wants to do or seems comfortable with though
