Last Night's Show - From Bonjovi.com
 

GREETINGS FROM BEANTOWN
The BON JOVI gang headed up to BOSTON, Massachussetts yesterday (Thursday, MAY 19) for a private show (for a software company called SAP.) The concert was at the Agganis Arena, the brand new hockey venue built at Boston University. The band flew up in the afternoon and weren't in the building more than an hour before their friends in the sports world joined them backstage and to watch soundcheck. DOUG FLUTIE was on hand, as was DAVID WELLS. The band took the stage around 9:00pm and were joined by BOBBY BANDIERA on guitar and JEFF KAZEE on additional keyboards (7 guys playing on stage!) During the show, New England Patriots Head Coach BILL BELICHICK entered the building to watch his friend on stage. The band had sports royalty cheering them on. The set list was as follows:

LIVIN' ON A PRAYER
YOU GIVE LOVE A BAD NAME
RUNAWAY
IT'S MY LIFE
BORN TO BE MY BABY
JUST OLDER
I GET A RUSH
WANTED DEAD OR ALIVE
RAISE YOUR HANDS
I'LL SLEEP WHEN I'M DEAD
BAD MEDICINE (Jon was out sining the song while walking through the crowd and dancing with concertgoers.)
SHOUT!

Encore:
I'LL BE THERE FOR YOU (acoustic - just Jon and Richie with two acoustic guitars trading lead vocals.)
THE RADIO SAVED MY LIFE TONIGHT
WHO SAYS YOU CAN'T GO HOME?

More news in the weeks to follow...

saturdaynight

Who says you cant go home, again? Cool!!

nice, can someone not get hold of the song so we can hear it yet.....

Dawn

Aloha !

I didn't even know they were playing that show this week.

Anyway, pretty impressive encore for the Bon Jovi standards. Another Boxset song back in the setlist. Nice. It looks like they listened to the fans's comments of last setlist in Vegas. Good.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

That sounds great!! I would have loved to hear it :)

yeah but shout ? again? come on

Like it or not that seems to be the permanent tatoo of the Bon Jovi setlists.
And it's not even their song.

Amen! I hope this means on the next tour that Jon will be singing it again. I miss that. And I'm glad to see some box set stuff in the set, too!

great setlist 2 box st songs and the new one too bad it's for people from a computer company who didn't care that much ppl sitting during the whole show and so on (like the Honda show those are shows done for private companies kinda related with Jon business very often ) .... I knew about this show for a while now (backstage has some good points like getting infos before it's happening)

the IBTFY bit sounds great. fair play to them for mixing it up a little bit. they still need to get rid of jeff and bobby b though; if they go on tour i'll be far from happy.
