One of Phil'x finest moments. Great to see Jon and Hugh smiling at each other when pulls the intro off.
Was there and it was actually just the way I had always envisioned Wild Is The Wind to be in a live setting.

What are you talking about?

That intro was a mess! JB didn't sound good, I miss Sambora solo
...but this lyric kills me everytime

I didn't really hear Jon during that performance that night. We were singing too loud. [emoji23]
And Phil was good, especially the intro :)

Johnny still talking about Richie’s guitar?
Sao Paulo 80,000 people?
Rio 100,000 plus people?

you have to admit these jokes are better than my jokes >_< jajaja

Nice to see Jon looking really enthusiastic!

Since the last concert of THINFS tour I am waiting for the next tour.

After the last tour I am waiting and hoping for something different of any kind - new material, something from the vault, return of Richie - anything but prolonging this tour with these kind of setlists by adding random legs each 6 months or so.

Jon and Phil were fine

I've known IDFY from Tokyo 2008 for a long time but never really listened to it all. This time I decided to listen to it and sounds better than I thought vocally and instrumentally. (Read this in Jon's voice like the Runaway timewarp intro. I realized it works after typing it all.)

By the way Jon hitting that C#5 before solo in KTF 2015 Singapore sounded like a grandfather hitting his toe on a wall or something.

Oh god that show was a mess.

Are you bored, JohnBon?
Then you should read these guys on this board, included overanalyzing Phil X’s interview and Ori’s situation

So you just bring Richie back
and we ALL are not bored anymore!

-_-

I'll take Door #3, please. :D

Especially since it ended with the duo I Love This Town and Captain Crash. No wonder that they don't sell well in Japan anymore :mrgreen:

I have a trauma with KTF tour... >_< jajaj

I’ll take ALL the doors! >_< (another of my traumas: “Don’t be conformist“)

Step into my time machine, it's Tokyo 2002!

The first chorus of KTF is probably the first occasion where we can see Jon grip the mic stand like he does on many (if not most) songs nowadays, so I guess that even in the early 2000s he already had to strain more on the high notes than it sounds like judging by his actual voice.

However, as a whole it's an epic gig - both Jon and Richie are on absolute fire. And as a drummer, I gotta give Tico some props again. What a beast he has always been, and still is.

It could be that he wasn't sure what to do since he wasn't playing maracas.

That's actually what I thought haha.

Bounce, the last album I REALLY like -_-
indeed I miss the maracas in this KTF >_< lol, but I don't need maracas in jungle noises like Bush Empire... -_- hihi
JBJ LOVES Undivided but he only plays that one now by request... I think he is his own diehard... lol (AND he has all the material included the usb's with video of everyshow everynight!)

In english class in school we watched the 1986 movie "Stand By Me". I think we are between the beginning and middle of film to watch it fully next Thursday before summer vacation starts.

I can really see how Jon got inspired to write/make Blood On Blood.

The movie is very good if anyone wanna know. Makes me want to have friendships like the movie and not like nowadays with too much technology.

****ing brilliant.

Don't understand why this didn't get played more in 2010. Jon & the band nailed it when it was played.

I was at that show! Totally agree!

I don't get it either, much more with Shot Through The Heart. That song sounded really good (not forced like some other tunes) in 2010 and he was able to pull it off nicely without straining too much. Should've stayed in there.

I thought all of the early songs sounded good to be honest.

Roulette
Only Lonely
Shot Through The Heart
Get Ready
Let It Rock

I still watch them to this day. Odd dodgy part on one or two but certainly nothing embarrassing.

Jon and the band actually look like they really enjoyed performing them too so I don't quite get why they got stopped.

Sent from my CLT-L09 using Tapatalk

I think that Jon doesn't really like them. That's why a big part of the songs from the first 2 records stopped getting played consistently on the New Jersey tour.

Very nice performance. They shouldn't have kicked out of the setlist so early in the tour.

Besides The Hardest Part Is The Night which truly sounded awful, I also think that the old stuff was quite decent.
I think they got dropped because the songs didn't get any reaction from the US crowds. Would've probably been much different if the tour had kicked off in Europe. So the stuff got replaced with the old and dragged LH / WLOL combo early on. The reception of these songs isn't better, but Jon likes to play them and he gets the easy cheers with the "Do we got it anymore?" part in WLOL.

It's funny because that was probably the tour that Jon said that comment about US fans only knowing the choruses to songs.

He's a bit of a weird one sometimes.

I actually agree with him. Overall, the US audience is definitely more chorus driven.

When I listen to audience recordings, it's very obvious. You might hear the first line but then it goes silent until the chorus.

Sure there are a few exceptions but overall global comparisons, I agree with Jon 100%

I'm not saying I don't agree. I'm saying that's probably what made him say it?

That Roulette sucks! (The verses especially, chorus is a little better, Richie is okay)

I didn’t like these songs live 2010..., but at moments they bring me some memories of what BJ was... and enjoyed them a little! -_-
