Two day show

Nothing stopping Bon Jovi from doing what Springsteen does. Even at a festival this guy puts on a show for 2 & 3/4 hours.

If Bon Jovi played this type of set at every show nobody would be complaining.

There are lots other other/better examples but all these shows had enough to keep the casual fan and the die hard happy. All had at least 25 songs in the set and 5 songs that are considered to be rarely played or die hard favourites.

The question should be why do some get these sets and some get a paint by numbers set of 20ish songs with no rare stuff played? All the tickets are the same price and other artists can do it so why not Bon Jovi?

I am guessing all these shows must have been 2 & 1/2 hours, maybe more?

Other songs that did feature last tour included:

Hey God
One Wild Night
This Ain't A Love Song
Lie To Me
Bounce
Undivided
Last Man Standing

These could all have been rotated at different shows to be included in those 5 + rare/die hard songs, whilst still keeping the main structure of the set.

That sounds more disappointing than that time I found out Lilly Savage was a man.

I actually like Joey, but I wouldn't want to hear it live, I'd even less like to hear the Dry Country getting hopes up and then hearing Joey.

Haha ! I agree, that sounds like torture :O

None of the ballas from Bounce are strong enough for the set lis in my opinion. At least not Joey, AABL, Right Side of Wrong and Misunderstood ! Open All Night though did actually sound pretty cool on the LH Tour !

Nm it was #2... It was the single that made the most money for them though..
