Most tracks in the setlists were great back then though. They may change it up more nowadays - they would, they have much more material to draw from - but their 'filler song' choices are not the most popular, again because they have such a wide catalogue to draw from in comparison to the early 90s.
Here's an interesting question to ponder though and I'm certainly not 100% where my opinion truly lies -
If you could only attend one more Bon Jovi show and you had the choice of either selecting a setlist reminiscent of the early 90s, which varied little or a setlist that is more in-keeping with last tour's, which would you choose?
Both have their positives and negatives but, energy of the performances aside, I think I would probably opt for the chance of getting a set which could feature some 'These Days' material and possibly great songs like 'Always' (which the KTF show obviously wouldn't have) than to have an early 90s show.
