Default Why no IML with the AAR?
Well,

The band had The All American Rejects there for the second leg of the tour (first as well?) and could have played the acoustic duet with their lead singer. Why did they miss this opportunity? It went over very well on the unplugged show. It didn't make sense to me. I was really hoping to hear it.

And 'because it sucks' isn't really a qualified answer.

I actually really like it.

Well, maybe because (for the benefit of the casual fans) they preferred the original

Oh Jovian gods,

Thank you for your blessed Thierry. I was wrong to have so underestimated his sublime wit and cunning. Please thank him for the free instruction.

A-men

Unplugged is a different format, a different medium almost. It's My Life acoustic would not go down well in a real stadium or arena show.

Exactly - well put.

Why can't some people answer a straight question without being obtuse?

And it's a Bon Jovi show, I still think it was daft when they were playing Blaze Of Glory with Daughtry.

Just my opinion
