The official Runaway Tours Barcelona thread
Wow, the second Runaway Tours trip of the year is already well in progress and nobody has bothered to start a thread? Well, here it is.
Apparently Jon played and "sang" the following songs in the acoustic show tonight: Bad Name (TLFR) Prayer '94 I Will Drive You Home It's My Life (TLFR) Lost Highway Amen Living In Sin Saturday Night Diamond Ring Thank You For Loving Me Joey Who Says Hallelujah Gotta say Diamond Ring and Thank You are VERY nice surprises! :D |

Hmmm... that’s not the final songs played... Because of the rain JBJ made 2 acoustic shows inside the cruise... Very decents with smart, funny, nice and sometimes arrogant Jon Bon Jovi’s answers.

Listened to Halleluja and Drive you home and Jon’s voice is in tune a very listenable...don’t you agree? Acoustic, chilled out songs in keys he can still sing in...a dignified way Jon can continue being a musician. |
Today’s setlist on the deck:-
Lost Highway Summertime Everyday People Old Time Rock n Roll Bad Name Born To Follow Honky Tonk Woman I’m Your Man Sleep When I’m Dead It’s My Life Born To Be My Baby Superstition Treat Her Right Bad Medicine w/Pretty Woman We Got It Goin On Love Comes To Town Prayer |
Aloha !

Summertime hasn't been done since 2011, is that correct? Or has Jon done it elsewhere?

The rarest one in this case should be Summertime. |

Comparing Jon to Cohen or Knopfler (better not dare) is just silly. Objectively compare stadium Jon to the acoustic clips. Boring? Go and watch Take That (no offence, Gary Barlow is a great songwriter and musician). Jon could still have dignity in an acoustic session. Before you said he’d sound worse without a big band, now it’s just ‘boring’... I know being contradictory is your job on this forum but come on 😉 |
It’s My Life and Prayer were sung by a fan on stage in each song, sounded higher lol, JBJ got jealous and started to sing higher too BUT................
A change in the key, makes wonders! |
Aloha !

By the time last tour ended he'd played in front of about 700.000 people of which, despite the shocking vocals, clearly most had a great time and would go again. And yet you want him to do small acoustic shows in theaters holding 2.000 people, meaning for the same amount of shows he'd play in front of 40.000 people. That's 660.000 people not buying a ticket. How does playing in front of less people give him more dignity? Because, according to you, he sounds better? He doesn't. Because, like I've said multiple times by now, he can't sing anymore. Salaam Aleikum, Sebastiaan |
Why don’t they play any of these songs live ? Damn it!

First you said he would sound worse acoustic, then just boring and now you’re saying he sounds just as bad. Forget your forum day job and admit it: he sounds better acousticly, and with a bit of work, it could be a good show. Read your own words re Cohen and Knopfler...you own justifications are exactly why you can’t compare them to Jon 😉 |
Aloha !

Whenever he does attempt one of the big hits he's singing them in a lower key, and thus sounds boring, making both performances just as bad. One is him bending over backwards to hit the right key, the other is sitting completely still singing the songs in a way that sucks the life right out of the songs. However, your agenda seems to have changed from debating to "I will put this Supersonic guy in his place". If that's your motivation to post I'm out. You keep hammering the same points without actually taking into consideration that you're flat out wrong. This is Living In Sin, done acoustic. He's flat and out of tune the first time he does the chorus and by the time he's doing it the second time it sounds just as painful. And that's with him avoiding the higher notes. There's plenty of other examples on youTube. I'll Be There For You in Dublin sounds shit. Amen always sounds horrible. He struggles with the bridge of Joey. He can't sing Livin' On A Prayer or Wanted Dead Or Alive anymore. That's 4 big hits already out. But you think he should do a 1,5-2 hour acoustic shows to give him more dignity "and be a musician". So what would it be like according you? What sonds would he be able to play according to you? He did a 13 song setlist the last time he did an acoustic show and was flat and out of tune in 13 of those songs. I Will Drive You Home and Hallelujah are about the only ones he's capable of doing without struggling throughout the song, now it's up to you to come up with at least 15 other songs to make it to a 1,5 hour show. 3 of the biggest hits are already out. You say he's got something he can work with, you tell me what stuff he could do. Salaam Aleikum, Sebastiaan |

And yes, he is out of tune in these shows as well in over 50% of the songs. |
Quote:
Livin in Sin sounds ok too, thanks Seb. He’s not out of tune in the chorus, just singing a lower variation, like background singers do. Again, travel around the world as much as Jon does and manipulate my words all you want...the truth is objectively Jon sounds substantially better and suffers a lot less when singing in an acoustic atmosphere. Whether or not it is ‘boring’ is subjective. Seb: keep finding and posting those vids. Jon singing how he can gives me hope 😊 |
Aloha !

But go on then, prove your point, post your 17 song setlist filled with songs you think people would buy tickets for. Give me 17 songs Jon's capable of singing nowadays. Salaam Aleikum, Sebastiaan |
It’s funny how they put on the stereo Dry County, Stick To Your Guns, the song of that band that sounds like Walk Like A Man, and even last night I went to the casino (after a few minutes I left the place ‘cause I didn’t win a thing of course!) in my way I heard that cover band doing Edge Of A Broken Heart, why JBJ doesn’t play rare songs for the real diehards, almost all the people there are drunk so they deserve We Got It Going On! lol, I guess they bought a lot of Hampton Water... and no way Bon Jovi going to be a band without Jon Bon Jovi like singer, legends to me are persons, not only artists. And no I don’t wanna be president.

Everything comes down to these shows being about Jon, not the music.
Guys let's be real here, that Hallelujah snippet is like 50% bum notes. |

I’ve said it before, I think he’d sound decent enough doing TLFR type versions of most songs, down tuning and singing different vocal lines when necessary, like on Livin in Sin. Stand Up Guy songs and new songs in that sort of style. Now you’ll say TLFR is boring and Stand Up stuff is crap. Fine, that’s your opinion. Thousands of people would still go to see him even if he sang La Macarena, just look at Runaway Cruises. His time as a stadium filler whose killing his voice, dignity, mental state and God knows what else? Over P.S Good to see you’ve dropped the Knopfler and Cohen comparisons |
To me, it’s all about the song, he can do a good performance acoustic or electric, but it’s all about what song he chooses to sing and... well, of course his mood

I do hope his voice gets better, but being 100% honest, the only song he could just about sing in Madrid a few months ago with the electric band was THINFS. It went downhill rapidly after the first song. Be great to watch a full 2019 acoustic to see how he gets on. |

I bet if he would do one rarity per show, we all would be happy! And no necessary paying big money for front row; for example I’m really thinking in going to Rock in Rio and see all the things that are there what would mean spending my time experience other things and not waiting for hours to be front row, in other words: last row… >_< jajajajaj |
