Opening song for European tour?
 
What you guys think will be the opening song for their european tour? I think YGLABD wont work cause it's not dark during the opening of the shows.... At least it would be very crappy it they decided to open with that...
I think they will go back to Raise your hands and maybe even Lost highway. Hey god, Blood on blood or Hand would be my favorites!

What about Helter Skelter or Rockin' in the free world? :)

Helter skelter would be great! In 2000 in Berlin they opened with Boys are back in town and I Believe. I wouldnt complain....

They should open with That's what the water made me and extend the intro like they did with Last Man Standing during the HAND tour. Not ideal but they should open with a new song, plus that would mean that there's space for another new song to put on there. Like Pictures of you, but that makes too much sense, they could never do that....

I won't be surprised if they pick Because We Can.

Bad Name won't work on MOST european countries because it won't be dark. However, gigs don't start before 10,11 pm in Portugal and Spain, unlike what happens in the UK and northern european countries so I wouldn't be surprised if bad name was the opener when it's already dark.
if all else fails, they can always open with Raise your hands or LH - god forbid lol.

I still think Blood on Blood was their best opener ever and it served 'em right for most of the Circle/GH concerts.
My dream opener ? Prayer, without a doubt. I got into Bon Jovi in 1995 so you get the idea.

I don't like the idea of a cover song opening the show. Plus, there's no way Jon could nail Helter Skelter.

A slow build up to Army Of One where the band come onstage one by one.......then straight into Raise Your Hands

Raise Your Hands is hands down Bon Jovis best opener. The entire crowd gets pumped, and then straight into Bad Name and the show has a great start. But due to fact they did that duo last European Tour I really hope they will go for Prayer as opener this time. I'd rather see Prayer/Bad Name as opener than see Prayer closing the set.

Of course Water Made Me would be the coolest opener, but no way that will happen.

IMHO Raise Your Hands, Lay Your Hands On Me and Wild In The Streest are the best opener songs...especially the last one...

Super rock songs, rock vibe...that's how a rock concert should start!!
