New Jersey is big enough. Ill be there for you and bad medicine are huge songs.

Also - forgive me if im wrong, but is there anything more challenging vocally from that album that they don't already perform already, ie. Ill be there for you, bad medicine.

99 in the shade is the only song I can see Jon not only hating, but struggling to sing.

Are you serious ? Love for sale is the ONLY one he could pull off now ....

It is certainly a big enough album full of hits

Bad Medicine
I'll Be There For You
Born To Be My Baby
Living In Sin
Lay Your Hands On Me

Plus songs like Blood On Blood, Homebound Train, Wild Is The Wind...

I've seen this band many times over the last 20 years and just want something different.

Doesn't New Jersey hold a record for having the most Top 10 singles off a hard rock album?

They didn't do it for SWW, so they're not going to do it for New Jersey.

It produced five Billboard Hot 100 top ten hits, the most top ten hits to date for any hard rock/glam metal album, including "Bad Medicine" and "I'll Be There for You", which both reached No. 1. The album was certified 7x Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America. The album also debuted at No. 1 in the UK and was the band's first UK No. 1 album. New Jersey was released by the Soviet state-owned record company "Melodiya", being the first American album ever released in USSR.

As I stated it is a very important album.

It's an important album but if they didn't do it with Slippery, I just don't see them doing it with NJ.

There were so many opportunities to play certain albums in its entirety and except Lost Highway during its own tour they haven't done it at all.
So I don't see why they should start doing it now without Richie and without Jon's voice.

Captain_jovi 03-21-2017 03:46 PM

They came very close to doing it in full in 2001 at a random city in the US.

Faceman 03-21-2017 03:53 PM

You think of Grand Rapids!?
Well, Born To Be My Baby, Wild Is The Wind, Living In Sin, Homebound Train, Bad Medicine and Blood On Blood in one show (and not during the NJ tour) was absolutely awesome. But I wouldn't call it getting close playing the album in its entirety.
