there is a show on now, right?

Yep, started earlier tonight so should be done by now. Nothing on backstage other than I'd Die For You and possibly (she wasn't sure) Stranger from RS.

Today's Sound Check
 

I was at today's sound check. They played Die For you, Seat next to you - Jon said that wouldn't be played tonite. He didn't like it.
A nice surprise was the Beatle's song Birthday. Great version. Taped it for his friend Donnie.
Did 9 songs at the sound check. it was pretty cool.

what were the other songs played?

Were you one of the AMX folks that got into sound check? That is very cool! Thanks for the report.

I just came home from the concert, it was my 8th, and I have to say it was one of my favourites, ever, if not the best.

The energy was amazing from the band - Jon was running around like a madman, like the frontman he is.

Richie's solos were glorious and his voice is so thick and rich, which sounds like Big and Rich, lol, speaking of which, We Got It Goin' On sounds really corny on record, but it's a stunner live.

They ripped through blistering versions of Keep The Faith and Bad Medicine, and Prayer was magical, as usual.

Great, great night. Didn't hurt that I had 13th row centre floor either, lol.
