Hmm might check them out then. Cheap Trick were pretty good support/co-headliners last time.

Cheap Trick were pretty good.

Are you going this time round Lee-Ann? I got my tickets in the mail last week. Really pumped for the Lep as well as Heart.

im going, and I’ll also be seeing Journey… sucks Foo Fighters are playing the same day as Journey at ACC but Journey has a killer lineup with Foreigner and Night Ranger

3. Animal
4. Foolin'

I look at that setlist and all I see are two songs that aren't more than 18 years old.... one is a cover and the other makes me gag violently. Anyone who complains about Bon Jovi's sets needs to review this.

that's why I laugh whenever there's a Joe Elliot interview on and he goes on about how his band is above Motley or Poison. Ok, maybe musically speaking they always have been, but in terms of present status, they're pretty much the same...

Exactly! They have really gone south for me and won't be seeing me at their shows until they do a real album that uses their talents and then proceed to play said album live.....not peddle tripe they think their fans want and then play the track that reeks the most.

it's astonishing how there isn't a single song off Slang or Euphoria, to say the least. i don't like Promises all that much, but if i remember correctly it did alright.

the only justification i find for a setlist like this is they aren't touring a studio album at the moment. i guess this song selection is a consequence of the awful selection of songs on Mirrorball (although they could still have played one of the three Sparkle Lounge songs and didn't).

Dave 1986 10-28-2011 12:06 AM

Yea it's quite sad how they've already disowned Sparkle Lounge after just 3 years.

Savvi 10-28-2011 02:22 AM

Yeah I agree about Bon Jovi being one of the only rock bands who continually change there setlist and Im still surprised at how many people complain about it. Granted some setlists are nearly identical, but there are plenty of songs in rotation on a Jovi tour than most other bands.

The only rotations that are being made on the Mirrorball tour are Make Love Like a Man, Let It Go and Gods of War. I'm with Roxannah, I wish songs like Promises would get played (I love that song!). And yes, Sparkle Lounge was a half decent album, they should kill it off already.

Still though, I had a blast. They are a great live act, despite the lack of setlist changes.
