Do NOT complain about Greensboro! That and Atlanta 1 were the best shows of the seven I've seen so far on this tour. Yes, I'd have loved one of the European set lists, but that was never going to happen for a crowd that was largely there for Daughtry. I swear Jon was determined to SHOW all those Daughtry fans who the headliners were! The band was so on that night!

(And I love Garageland and Miss Fourth of July. Those aren't exactly run-of-the-mill songs.)

I know it was a REALLY good show, despite the setlist Grageland was a GREAT suprise, I was just hoping for Open All Night because they had just played it at Mohegan Suns. Not a big fan of 4th of July.


When Jon came into the audience I was like 5 rows away, that was pretty neat. The energy in the place was electric.

I discovered that it didn't really matter, because as soon as you're at a Jovi show, you're among friends. I also went to Greensboro by myself, but had "met" some other Southern fans online by then and met 2 of them live & in person at the show. One of those was Dawn (dbvolfan) who posts here occasionally. The Southern "girls" (and I use that term loosely since I'm included - LOL), were VERY well represented at the Nashville and Atlanta 1 & 2 shows. We didn't necessarily have tickets together since most of us had fan club tickets. I'm going to Boston by myself and have fan club tickets by myself, but have quite a few friends who will be there. As Kathleen said, we're hoping to meet there, and so are Deb (bjcrazycpa) and I. In New York, I'm traveling with 2 other members of the Southern group. We're all getting our own tickets, though, so we'll be all over MSG. Actually, right now we're playing musical tickets. LOL I just "upgraded" my Monday ticket, so one of the others is taking my original one. Now I just have to sell the extra ticket I had to buy in order to get myself on the floor!
There's nothing pathetic about going on your own.

I'm going to both Twickenham gigs alone and I can't wait. It's nice having the feedom to do what you want without having someone else to think about. Sounds selfish doesn't it?

When Bon Jovi played the O2 I found myself with 3 spare tickets on the day of the concert, all because my mates let me down. I decided on that day that I'd go to gigs on my own as I didn't want the stress anymore.

I just hope Twickenham doesn't run out beer like Wembley did for the Foo Fighters last weekend!

I am so excited right now, it's ridiculous!! I'm just like...really emotional. I could cry, lmao. Maybe it's a bit sad, but it's my first Jovi experience, so I'm allowed.

I couldn't go to a concert alone. Not because it's sad, but because...I wouldn't dare! Atlough, if nobody would have came with me...I'd have considerd it!

Yup . Loved them since I was a kid. But never got the chance to see them, until now. So many Jovi fans off here have been telling me, they are jealous, because they want it to be their first time again.

My mum really enjoys it.
Not sure what her favourites are but she does know some.

I'm looking forward to going on my own one day though, then i go in the standing area
I don't mean that my mum is disabled or nothing, but i don't think she would like to be in the standing area.
