Aloha !

Amsterdam was my favourite, closely followed by Frankfurt.

Salaam Aleikum,

I was at the heralded, legendary night 7 performance at the Prudential Center. This all-time concert included such unforgettable classics like Complicated, Right Side of Wrong, Story of My Life, The Runaway time machine bit, and a rousing encore of Bells of Freedom/Wanted/and the perfect closer: Sleep When I'm Dead (with no covers of course!). With 5 songs from the HAND album, even more than what was played from Lost Highway, I was deep-in-my-seat to be sure. This show even had a real gem: Richie Sambora playing Stranger In This Down, during which the crowd flooded for the bathroom....

...with all this said, I have tickets to Night 2 MSG, and somehow, believe it or not, I think that show will be vastly superior.

It has to be Frankfurt for me, in the same way as Dusseldorf was my first show on the HAND tour, it set the standard for the rest of the tour and sadly it wasnt beaten.

Lay your hands on me, Blood money for the first time, We will rock you, Mercy, Damned, KTF + Sympathy, original BOR and Blaze for the first time in years and These Days. Oh and it was my birthday too so that helped

I'm tied. In some ways my favourite show was in New Jersey at the Prudential center as it was a dream to see the band in Jersey and flying over from the UK was just so exciting. But I have to say that although I enjoyed every show I went to in the UK (Southampton, Bristol and both Twicks) I think I would pick Bristol as it was my first time in the GC and I was 2nd row. The view was fantastic, the crowd brilliant and I had so much fun.

Does the Hammerstein charity show count as an LH tour show?
If not, Pru Night 9 was spectacular. Set wasn't the best, with the whole LH album. But it was the most energy I've ever seen from any band not led by Bruce Springsteen. Awesome show, I enjoyed some of the LH songs which had a great deal of passion in them. The rest of the set was hit heavy but done better than any other show I've been to, and the encore of IBTFY (Normal Version), Saturday Night, Wanted, and Faith was great.
The set for Pru Night 3 was great (Living In Sin, Right Side Of Wrong, and Lay Your Hands On Me) but the energy wasn't nearly as high.
Pru Night 10, let's just not bring up. An ok concert, but nowhere near the others, or any other Bon Jovi show I've ever seen.

Yeah . . . and I had to go home after night 2. Of course, if I had stayed, I wouldn't have enough vacation days left for Boston and New York, so maybe my regret will get wiped out by other super shows!

Hard to pick one, since the band was at loose and on fire for this leg of the tour...

Here's some highlights:

Stutgart - great set list and atmosphere, requestes were performed, jon came down to touch the fans for the 1st time since 2000 ....

Lisbon - Greatest hits set, but probably one of the best atmospheres with the band having so much fun. Listen to We gotta goin on from that show to know what I'm talking about. No down moments, it was a rolercoster of a good time. Plus NO Capt Crash (finally, I can't stand that song anymore)

Frankfurt - Damn good set list with a special treat: Damned (I had a banner for that one). band on fire, crowd was good and we got treats.....

Amesterdam - History has made and despite the half empty stadium the crowd gave Rock n Roll a very good name. I had a banner for Diamond Ring on this one and was glad Jon and Richie enjoyed so much my request. Stick to your guns will probably be remembered forever. Sat Night and Faith had the best versions of the whole tour. I'll go back to Amesterdam every tour from now on.

Manchester - Best audience in the UK. Band on fire. Awsome set list. Only time they did 2 encores, leaving the stage after the 1st one.

Twick 2 - The band gave all they had for the last night + I Believe, I Believe, I Believe (I had a banner during the first 3 german shows requesting ths song, but jon shook his head saying no, so I stopped asking for it. Glad they played it in the end) + Best performence of Always + Great party in the end


Second by:

Dublin: Very enthusiastic crowd and band. The most talkative Jon. And best show finalle: These Days had its best performence.

Munich: Every time the show had a highlight the rain fell and Jon loved it. Killer performences of Hey God and In these Arms.

Hamburg: The band was at loose and tried new stuff...



Biggest disapoitment:

Brussels: How can a brilliant set list be so little enthusiastic. Worse version of Dry County ever... The audience was too quiet and didn't care about the band. The band suprisingly made too many mistakes. Jon was pissed with all the others. If it wasn't for the first 5 songs it'd be compared to Amesteram 2005 or.... Hull 2006 :S
