Christmas show december 1996?
 

I'm not sure... was there a Christmas show in december 1996 at the Count Basie Theatre? And if so, does anyone know the setlist? Must have been the last one, or have there been any christmas gigs afterwards?

There was fanclub show on December 19, 1996 at the Count Basie Theater. Here is the setlist (the order may not be exact):

Red Bank, NJ USA

You Give Love A Bad Name

All Over Now (sung by Hugh)
Blood On Blood,

Rockin' All Over The World
Prayer 94

There have been other fanclub shows - several in fact - but those were mostly Backstage events with Jon, not the full band. There was one of those this past February in fact.

I believe I have this recording. Good show!

Oh, cool! Good setlist, though quite standard apart from the covers. Nice to see "Damned" and "All I Want Is Everything" in there.
Dave sung 2 songs? Nice. And Richie did "I'll Be There For You"... might be the first time he ever sang this in a Bon Jovi context?!

Yeah, I know about the JBJ show in febuary. I'm looking for band events, and it seems their tradition of christmas show ended after this one, I suppose?

Thanks for helping out!

And I think there's a vid on youtube of I'll e there for you from this..... Jon did the guitar solo while Richie played Accoustic.

And off to youtube I am...

Hm, I have a fan club show from the Count Basie about the same time - but I'm sure it also has Diamond Ring (the original lyrics) and also Letting You Go in the setlist.

Could be wrong though, it's been a long time since I listened to it.

I have this Christmas Show - 18. December + 19. December 1996 on a official very rare Promo VHS Video from the Jon Bon Jovi Fan Club!

I have also the 10th Anniversary Bash Show - 28. August 1998 on a official very rare Promo VHS Video from the Jon Bon Jovi Fan Club!

Many of us whackjob fans have the same shows - some of us have actually transferred them to DVDs digitally :D

Oha! It's a band show? If so, would you be so kind to write down the setlist? Never heard of this show before...
