I remember hearing a couple of bootlegs of concerts from the These Days tour and when some songs from that album were played, the reaction was mild at best.

I don't think These Days had a big hit like so many other BJ albums did, but it rated well in the charts when released probably due to it being on the back of Crossroad, which was quite successful.

I've seen some people mention on this board that occasionally a song from TD was played on the Crush tour and I was wondering, what was the reaction to the song? I'm thinking that maybe now that people have had plenty of time to listen to the These Days album and let the songs grow on them (because I don't think there is a song from that album that hits you right away, my opinion anyway), and that a general feeling on this board is that there are a number of TD songs held in high regard by Jovi fans (These Days, Hey God, Something To Believe In).

I think that if These Days tracks were played on the next tour, they would be very well received because the status of a lot of TD songs has risen substantially since the album was released.
