Playing a whole album on tour
 

Apart from the HAND tour, has there been any other tour where they played every song on the album they were touring at the time? (apart from the early tours when they only had one or two albums to draw upon) I'm almost sure the likes of Social Disease, Stick to your guns, I want You, Blame it on the love of R&R, Hearts Breaking even etc etc were never played live on those tours.

Aand yes, before anyone says, i know Wildflower and I am were only played the once last tour, but it still counts! Probably due to the fact that last tour was the first time the band actually properly rehearsed before a tour.

The "These Days" tour was close... with "All I Want Is Everything" they even played a bonustrack... though "Hearts Breaking Eveb" and "If That's What It Takes" have never been played at all...

The KTF-Tour was pretty good too... they even tried "Fear" on a few shows and played "Little Bit Of Soul" at the MTV-gig but refused to play "I want you" and "Blame it on the love..."

So it goes with the previous tours... even Slippery has one song that has never been played life as far as I know... "Without love"

So the answer to your question is probably "no"

Actually they did play an Acoustic Version of I Want You, and played Blame it on the love once aswell. Sorry but i cant remember the dates!

Would be interesting if they ever do what Muse done a couple of times on their last tour.... they came out and just played their newest album in whole...and then came back out after and played their hits from their old cds... Although maybe that wouldnt be too good unless Bon Jovi manage to deliver an album full of great tracks again... its been over 10 years!

Iron Maiden did that last tour, played the new album start to finish then for the encore played only 3 or 4 classic songs. I would have been gutted if id of been there, but im sure the diehard maiden fans who have heard all the classics a million times would have appreciated the change.

Jovi did that for the Tokyo Road special release in Japan... although, seeing as that was just a 'greatest hits' compilation, that's not all that special really.

It is when you have Hey God and Something For The Pain in there though!

True - that would have been special! :)

"Blame It On The Love Of Rock And Roll" has been played at least one time during the KTF Tour (I have it on a poor quality mp3), and "I Want You" too has been played once in a short acoustic version.
During the Jersey Syndicate Tour "Stick To Your Guns" has surely been played. I have an mp3 of the Bruxelles performance (15 Dec 1988 is the date), but I'm pretty sure it's been played some other time during that era...
I don't know anything about "Social Disease" or "Without Love" beeing performed, but for sure "Hearts Breaking Even" and "If That's What It Takes" have never been played live...

Does anybody know about "Woman In Love"? I'm not sure, but I think that's one of the "never been played live" songs...
