Not sure anything will ever beat May 1993 at Wembley Arena. It was the first time I'd seen them live after being a huge fan since the release of SWW. I can't actually remember the set list other than it being a god mix of songs concentrating on the 3 best albums to that point; SWW, NJ and KTF, with the added bonus of Blaze of Glory which was and still is a favourite of mine. As an 18 year old away from home for the first time at Uni it was almost surreal experience - growing up in a tiny village in Devon I never thought I'd be that close to the mighty Bon Jovi watching them perform live. It was a dream come true.
Milton Keynes 2001 was pretty damn good - a really long set, the first time I'd taken my wife to a concert and the sun came out. We also weren't one of the people who got stuck in the traffic afterwards!
Hard Rock Calling 2011 is of course up there too for one of the best atmosphere's I've ever experienced at a concert and a great mix of songs.
