These Days, Crush and One Wild Night tours I only saw one show each time so can't really say how the tour was.

It's hard to pick one that was worse than the other or better because they've all had special moments.

Those shows are in my top 5! I was there at both nights. Jon was on fire and playful and moving around the stage (even including the back and a side of the floor). I was totally blown away!

Hit me, but I think the HAND Tour was just amazing. Yeah, Jon's voice wasn't in the right place, but the performances were full of energy, the setlists were full of rocker songs and the band felt like a band, Jon would throw himself to the floor for example. And the setlists had less "snooze fest" moments, so it was a pretty good tour for me, would love to go back in time to see them back then.

So what? That's one highlight you've pointed out from an entire tour of mediocrity. Every tour, no matter how bad, has great shows here and there. That tour was mediocre on the whole, especially the later legs. Performance-wise, the only tour wore than HAND is the current one.

Actually, the HAND tour was the first with an entire section in the setlist considered a snoozefest. I'll never forget the TLFR section during those shows, incredibly boring. Jon was incapable of rocking out, Richie was incapable of actually improvising a bit and Jon's voice just got worse and worse as the tour progressed. Would the band have continued in that direction there's no way I'd still be seeing Bon Jovi live nowadays.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

I'm not giving it any act. If you're intimidated by my nature then that's your problem. I only oppose idiot posters and am perfectly nice to most of the board.

I went to see one show on the HAND tour. Jon didn't take his sunglasses off or speak to the crowd until about ten songs in. Richie looked like Steven Seagal in drag and there was a new guy called Bobby and two keyboard players.

Things haven't been the same since.
