The best (post-2000) "vanilla" set list
I think this one is definitely a contender:
1. You Give Love A Bad Name 2. Raise Your Hands 3. Lost Highway 4. Because We Can 5. That's What the Water Made Me 6. It's My Life 7. Runaway 8. What About Now 9. We Got It Going On 10. Keep The Faith 11. Amen 12. Bed Of Roses 13. I'll Be There For You 14. Captain Crash & The Beauty Queen From Mars 15. We Weren't Born To Follow 16. Someday I'll Be Saturday Night 17. I'll Sleep When I'm Dead 18. Wanted Dead or Alive 19. Who Says You Can't Go Home 20. Bad Medicine Encore: 21. (You Want To) Make A Memory 22. In These Arms 23. Born To Be My Baby Encore II: 24. Have A Nice Day 25. Livin' On A Prayer Encore III: 26. Blood On Blood 27. I Love This Town While there are absolutely no rarities even in the encore, the quintet ITA/BTBMB/HAND/Prayer/BOB alone would make me cream my pants these days (no pun intended). Plus the double-shots IML/Runaway and BOR/IBTFY, in addition to the electric version of Saturday Night, are something I'd ejaculate over (even if it would happen in public) with pride. Bloody hell, I miss the good old days (2013)... This one's pretty good (at least in comparison to the snoozefest sets we've been getting on the THINFS tour so far) as well: 1. You Give Love A Bad Name 2. Raise Your Hands 3. Runaway 4. Lost Highway 5. Because We Can 6. That's What The Water Made Me 7. It's My Life 8. Whole Lotta Leavin' 9. What About Now 10. We Got It Goin' On 11. Keep The Faith 12. Amen 13. Bed Of Roses 14. I'll Be There For You 15. We Weren't Born To Follow 16. Who Says You Can't Go Home 17. I'll Sleep When I'm Dead / Start me up 18. Bad Medicine / Roadhouse Blues Encore I: 19. In These Arms 20. Wanted Dead Or Alive 21. Have A Nice Day 22. Livin' On A Prayer Encore II: 23. Always And this: That's What The Water Made Me You Give Love a Bad Name Raise Your Hands Lost Highway Whole Lot of Leavin' It's My Life Because We Can What About Now We Got It Goin On Keep the Faith Amen Someday I'll Be Saturday Night Diamond Ring (You Want to) Make a Memory Born to Be My Baby We Weren't Born To Follow Who Says You Can't Go Home I'll Sleep When I'm Dead (w/Jumpin' Jack Flash, Taking Care of Business & Start Me Up) Bad Medicine Encore: In These Arms Runaway Have a Nice Day Wanted Dead Or Alive Livin' on a Prayer Blood On Blood Always EDIT: I don't consider BOB, Always and Diamond Ring to be so rare (even in the USA) that they would really change a predictable set into a special one. I'd call the latter two sets, as someone has described these kinds of sets here sometimes, "very tasty vanilla". And I assume we'd all probably give our kidneys for anything like those sets this year. EDIT 2: Please note, all three sets got performed in the USA on the BWC tour, indeed... |
Are we talking as a casual fan or a hardcore one that has seen them 20+ times?

Hard to judge for me because I've seen them 11 times in Germany between 2003 and 2011 and have gotten some killer sets for diehard fans.
However, the shows in Munich 2008, 2011 and 2013 had long, but vanilla setlists by our standards. And they were all decent, but nothing to write home about. Then again I just might've been spoiled by concerts like Munich 2003, Frankfurt 2008, Dresden and Mannheim 2011 and Cologne 2013 :D |

Oh-no-no.
You skip that Bad Name and move it somewhere else. And start BOOM BOOM BOOM with "Raise Your Hands" like they did EXACTLY 31 years ago today on July 23rd 1986: Gotta love that entrance by mr. Bongiovi too. And DIG that recording, its as good as it gets on 80s bootlegs!! |
