About those times performances, I ran into this performance of Everyday (is on the dvd that came with HAND in some releases) and I loved it: |

Off course, I wasn't a fan back then, unlike you, and off course the tour so far is sucking dick, but no way would I rather see the band in 2003 than 2010-11. The Circle era had much better setlists (Ain't no way would I have a chance to hear my favorites Always (only played twice in 2003), Dry County (never played), original I'll Be There For You and loads of other gems they brought back to life since then). Plus, let's not forget that in the last tour Jon on a good night was able to sound decent on songs like Always, Something To Believe In, I Believe and a bunch of others, while in 2003 he would sound like a dying cat while doing Blaze Of Glory. You could make an argument that Richie's playing was better, but with those horrible setlist, he didn't really played too many great solos anyways. Plus, Bounce Tour had way more new songs than The Circle Tour and that can also be considered a minus, considering the quality of 2000s records. No Bobby is the only real plus that I can see. The Circle (and GH) era wins over Bounce for me all the way. |

Jon and the band were on fire for part of the Bounce tour and gave it everything they had. And they in the middle of the European tour his voice gave out and the rest of the shows really really suffered from it. |

When comparing the vocal performances of Jon during the Yokohama show and then whatever acoustic or electric performance of any show of the past 2 years Jon doesn't sound so bad. Jon with a cold now is Jon in regular condition in a few years. It's been like that for a good 10 years now. Bon Jovi as a band were much better during the Bounce tour than Bon Jovi nowadays. Especially Jon's voice was in a much better condition for the first half of the North American tour. His voice blew out halfway through the North American tour and it puch a huge damper on the shows. I agree that there's a bigger chance of hearing anything rare nowadays than there was during the Bounce tour. During the Bounce tour however, Jon wouldn't sound like a strangled cat during Raise Your Hands, Bad Name and Faith. The regular songs still sounded rather good as opposed to the muddy sound that's coming from the band most of the time nowadays. It was also the last tour where Richie was improvising a lot, showed what he could do, threw in licks here and there that aren't there on the studio and would actually be a real guitar player as opposed to one that's just going through the motions. It's just a shame that Jon didn't train his voice back then as much as he should have or the shows could've been a lot better. Amsterdam, Mannheim and Vienna are good examples of the band putting on a great show. Salaam Aleikum, Sebastiaan |

By the way, Jon shouldn't started smoking because "he was bored". Who the **** is the singer of one of the most famous rock bands on the world and with some of the most demanding songs ever and starts smoking when he's 37? Really. No. |
