Jon Bon Jovi and his band held their second and final rehearsal at the Prudential Center Tuesday afternoon in preparation for a 10-date run, which begins Thursday night, at the new arena.

Among the songs the group performed live Tuesday were “Bells of Freedom,” “Wild is the Wind,” “I’ll Be There For You,” “Lay Your Hands on Me,” “Welcome to Wherever You Are,” and “Open All Night.” He said the band has a list of 73 songs that it will mix and match during the course of these 10 shows.

The group practiced for more than an hour before taking a break to meet with arena construction workers. The Jersey native acknowledged putting an arena in Newark is “a risk,” but he believes it is a risk that will pay dividends for the city.

Thanks for the article Deb I saw that they were doing soundchecks this week over at the other site.I hope Wild Is the Wind, Welcome and open All Night get played at one of the shows I will be going to.

Two more days!

Lay Your Hands On Me!! :D

WILD IS THE WIND!!!!

I hope these 73 songs get carried on through the Canadian Leg of the tour as well. It would be sort of a waste if they just rehearsed these for the ten Prudential shows and nothing else.

Anyone else wondering which version of Open All Night?

Actually that did cross my mind but I figure it's the Box Set version.

...Drool.
:D

Being the bored nerd that i am i compiled a list of all the Bon Jovi songs the boys played on the HAND tour, Then added all the tracks from Lost Highway. It came to 63 songs. So if Jon is telling the truth we could be in for some surprises!!!

I hope so because it's so much better than the slop that is on Bounce.
;)

Goddamn, Open All Night and Wild Is The Wind!!!! I want to go to the show from tomorrow.

(Kathleen you'd better bootleg this :))
