I was never really fan of the song"I'll sleep when I'm dead" and I just hate the live version of it.Sorry.
In Crush Tour DVD, Jon shouts like"Yeaah.... .. and something like that at the start of the "I'll sleep when I'm dead" and again asks crowd to repeat after him . It is so rediculous.Sorry.

It just cracks me up that Jon has done the same speeches for close to twenty years now. In Buffalo as soon as Jon uttered "How we doing so far ~okay?" my brother and I looked at each other and rolled our eyes and busted out laughing.

It doesn't bother me at all though. I think someone said it is comforting. It's like Jon's trademark. The "script" is just part of a Bon Jovi show. I just wonder if Jon knows every die hard knows it by heart

I also like almost all the ones you guys have mentioned so far.. especially the Capt. Crash one

The only improvisation i found to be ultra cheesy was his little interperative acting during Right Side of Wrong. Jon standing there with that serious introspective look on his face, gazing into space reflecting, then the crazy arm wailing around the stage... come on... he looked ridiculous

The all request hour, the girl in the front row has just asked for Blood on Blood, ok, Merry Christmas young lady!" Amazing <3

Not technically live 'improvisations' but things that they tend to do live which get on your neves or are just plain daft;

1) the whole Captain Crash pantomine (see Crush DVD for an example)
Urgh yeah I cant watch that without cringing

Hehe...Andi...its just personal preference I guess. I know the majority of my friends and probably fellow-BJ fans don't like the song live at all, but sicne the very first time I heard it live, I completely loved it. It was great crowd participation and I really like the arm-swinging. Its just a fun track.
