i'm going to stop following the sets after the US tour - so that also means me taking a 1-2 month break from Jovitalk

sure they have a different stage in the arenas? jon said in an interview before the jap tour start "we have some quite nice special effects but i fear they only work indoor"- i hope we get a different stage though i like the current one- but i love surprises

They sound better inside, the visual effects are better in indoors, the atmosphere is better indoors....

Why the hell do Bon Jovi play stadiums when they're so much better in arena's....... oh silly me, money

I have to agree with Mike. Even if we didn't look at the sets for this tour, we'd still be able to guess what most of the songs they were going to play will be - just not necessarily the order in which they play em.

The fact is, BJ have got 3 hours to go on stage and play all the classics, some new stuff and some old stuff. They have more than enough time to try and please most of the fans in the stadium/arena but they don't TRY. They just play preictable sets and don't mix the old stuff up at all. That's why, especially seeing as they still play crappy covers, so many people are disappointed with their setlists, regardless of whether they attended the show or not. It really is quite disconcerting to see the 'same old, same old' when looking at the setlists so far. All I can say is, I've got my fingers crossed for something a little bit more special for Hyde Park in June than the material they've been playing so far.

Oh, my heart bleeds for you. You are all the most selfish, ungrateful lot in the world. We here in Australia have not had a full concert since 1995 and you don't ever hear us bitching about what they played in December. We were just happy to get our 50 mins. By the way, if you think a Jovi concert is boring, ever, you have a serious, serious problem. I enjoy just getting into my car each night and listening to albums, and hey, guess what, I know what's coming next. Imagine that fact, actually enjoying their music and not criticising it all the time, Im sure thats just so unimaginable for most of you. And to the idiot who said that I just go there, see Jon and Im happy, what are you a fag? Im male, in case thats hard for you to tell. I was sitting about 115 meters from the stage in Sydney and it was the best 50 mins Ive seen in concert.

Tom, you're missing the point. No matter what means they;re not that interested in the music, and so long as the band do 'the hits' and they can observe how 'cute' Jon is, then it's awsome to them.

You are the cigarette I was talking about......that is a real dumbass comment right there. I would happily sit through a concert of non hits, but what would the fun be? They do what the majority of the crowd wants, not what ****** like you want. Go to a concert where they play nothing the general fans have heard of....inow that would be a slightly less than awesome concert. All of my favourite songs tend to be non hits, and personally I don't care what they choose to release or don't. Is it so hard for you to believe than fans, true fans like myself, can enjoy a concert to the fullest?
