Inglewood up to no good! Some more California Lovin' for the Jovi after a few days off from San Diego. Will this improve Jon’s voice a bit further from his impressive performance at the Viejas on Sunday? They’re playing Wednesday at The Forum – a name that sounds like a small venue, but Google images shows me it’s pretty hefty.

They last played Inglewood on the Crush Tour on 3rd December 2000 and the setlist for that show was:

You Give Love a Bad Name
Say It Isn't So
One Wild Night
Captain Crash & the Beauty Queen From Mars
Born to Be My Baby
It's My Life
Runaway (Acoustic)
Bed of Roses
Someday I'll Be Saturday Night
Thank You for Loving Me
Wild in the Streets
Just Older
I Got the Girl
Lay Your Hands on Me
I'll Sleep When I'm Dead
Bad Medicine
Encore:
Blood on Blood
Next 100 Years
Keep the Faith

Encore 2:
I'll Be There for You
Wanted Dead or Alive

Well that’s a setlist I’d give my left ball to get most of these days (although you can keep the captain)!

Start time of 7.30pm, no idea who the support act is as of yet. Seems to be loads of available sections on TM, upper tiers under $20 each it would seem. Maybe the car park will look much like the picture above if the TM availability is to believed?

After this there is an 8 day break (since the Denver gig got moved) so wonder if Jon will give Always a bash again?

Have fun to anyone going. Setlist and video links will be updated in the OP here after the show.

Very nice set. Love Just Older. Such a great song. Prefer LOAP to close a show though.

I want these days to be performed. I mean they didn't do anything from that album yet right?

From what we know from former tours, there's almost no chance for something off These Days to get played in the US (and fewer setlist variety in general). During the BWC tour e.g., they got Diamond Ring, but only a few times and very late into the tour.

In some recent Q&A Jon stated that American crowds don't like These Days songs as much as say European ones. If we look at the album charts, there certainly might be something true to that ;)

Plus, most of the These Days repertoire is quite hard to sing.

On a more general note, I don't really know what to expect of the next show. On the one hand, historically seen there are more chances for a long show and/or a show with some surprises/rarities. But on the other hand, this "rule" doesn't really seem to apply anymore. For example, the last concert in San Diego was a back-to-back date, and I have to admit that it was rather short, but it was a relatively strong one.
Also, it might be that there is a private show "hidden" somewhere in the schedule, so that the 8 days break might not really be so long.

gutted theres been nothing like this...and there never will be...

Trouble is the audience didnt really respond so by about the 5th show the old ones were dropped

Just throw 1 in Jon!

Yeah, it's huge.
The video for Bad Medicine was filmed here.

i thought they´ll play in L.A today 07.03 ?

Nope, it is March 8th for the show.

Actually, the Bad Medicine video was filmed at the Long Beach Arena in Long Beach, California. There was a hard rock/metal station back then was 105.5 KNAC, they promoted the heck out of it in 1988.

Oh Crush...I was 13 when it was released in 2000 and was my introduction to Bon Jovi. So of course the album holds a special place with me. I'd love to hear Next 100 Years, Say It Isn't So, Two Story Town and OWN at least once more live before the band calls it quits. They're not hard songs to sing either...
