The creators of these topics should make the effort to do the PBP and keep up with the set in the first post.

Sorry, I would do all of that, but i'm not a member of Backstage and I don't know anyone that is going to the show (I live over the other side of the world). But i will post the Setlist on the first page as soon as the show is finished. :)

I think that what he meant was to let someone who CAN get updates start the thread, and then they can update it themselves.

Why?? just because Seb said it once, you'd agree and actually did it???

Yes, thats it. I worded it like a Lithuanian politician :p

No, It's just what I started to do for the Newark shows, then reliased that shoud be the style.

Um, why does anyone care who starts the thread?

I can do the wading through Backstage again tonight. (It sounded like there would be a PBP again tonight.) Would folks prefer that I keep editing the first post that I make as additional songs come through instead of posting them individually and occasionally posting a full list? I want to be as user-friendly as possible!

Terri

So you realized something and therefore decides how a style should be.

Then do it for a couple shows, and thenstop with it. And as soon as anyone starts a thread again, there is you saying its the wrong format.

Why didn't you start a thread for the last few shows and kept it updated?? Not that that was not appreciated but better anything then nothing, and if its not good enough, well you know where to go...... you've been there alot and its not backstage

Bon Jovi took the stage at 8:30 in Calgary.

Exit through the arena floor (did not come back as reported at one point -- crazy night!)

Sorry guys, things got very confusing, because of complete frenzy when Diamond Ring was played and because the people who were texting went to the fan pit around Blood on Blood. After that, the reports were completely scrambled. I've made some corrections that came through, but this still may not be right. Still confusion over when Sleep was played, for example. I'd wait to see what gets posted on BJ.com, but I've got to get some sleep. All in all, a little more interesting than most nights!
