Default Thoughts so far?

Obviously the songs from the first 2 albums are fanastic and will be great to hear. I'm liking the choice of Circle songs too.

Negatives for me and the amount of LH songs hanging around, if they wanna play something from that album at least do a decent one like Any other day.

It looks like Who says is now a regular fixture, dont think it has to be played every night, esp in the UK as it wasnt a big hit. Disappointing to see Richie doing IBTFY again, give him summat else to sing, its been 7 years that he's been singing it now!

They have a week break now, lets see if they can reherse some more classics

I can only comment on what I've seen on YouTube. I think Love's the Only Rule Was good apart from the Hallelujah's. Roulette was ok, but would have liked to hear more from Richie and Jon's vocals were a bit patchy. Great to hear it after so many years but just sounded like it lacked energy a bit. The Tokyo Road bootleg sounds great I think and it's better than I thought it would be. Richie sounds awesome and Jon's in decent voice. Diamond Ring sounds ok, and it's good that they're actually playing something from These Days. Let's hope they give us more songs from that album. Ain't seen Shot Through The Heart yet.

You're right about the LH songs. I think they should drop them as it's probably Jovi's worst album. It's good they've brought back some old songs but I just hope that continues and they add more variety.

So far, I've been pleasantly surprised by the setlists, but I agree they need to drop the LH songs, enough already. I don't mind AOD or WLOL but anything else needs to be dropped by the wayside ESPECIALLY that god awful WGIGO....

As Rob was saying I can only comment what I have seen on youtube too. The setlist of the first night was a nice surprise for me too. I was so pleased to hear Roulette and the old songs too especially Diamond Ring which is one of my favorites. Hope they play it more often in this tour. Concerning LH I must agree with you all they definitely have to drop it since the last tour was full with it. I think that some of us got enough with it. Though I enjoy very much seeing Jon dancing on WGIGO.... it would be good to hear more variety of the old albums. Good that they didn't play Sleep When I'm Dead again.... Tokyo Road loved it and I'd like to hear Let it Rock in the future and more of SWW...
And would also be great hearing Richie singing something new

Seriously -- 2 LH songs per night at the MAX, and 1 would be better. Personally, I'm a fan of WLOL. AOD and LH wouldn't be too bad. Even Memory was okay on the U.S. arena leg . . .

BUT NOT WGIGO. Dearest band, you have better songs in that genre, so please, please pick one!

Also, DO NOT OPEN WITH AN LH SONG! We just did that on the last tour. If you don't think there's a great opener on this album, then go older than the last tour. We'll probably think that's cool. Only going back to LH is just deja vu all over again!

More 90s stuff.

Drop We Got It Going On permanently.

Otherwise no big complaints thus far.

Prayer should be one night, and I think that probably will happen. Personally, I think I'd go with that at the first show. Prayer wouldn't be a bad way to open a stadium.

I would LOVE to see all of NJ done at one of those shows, and considering that it opens with LYHOM and that great intro, why not start the show with it? The place ought to go ballistic!

And I don't know what I'd pick for the other show. Hmmm . . .
