The last time Bon Jovi played St. Paul was April 8, 2010. The setlist contained three surprises; Summertime replaced Whole Lot Of Leavin', Richie's Homebound Train replaced Lay Your Hands On Me and Love For Sale replaced the acoustic rendition of Someday I'll Be Saturday Night.

Sorry, once again, no graphs yet. I've been busy with the 1995/1996 part of my website, so graphs will come later.


With all this dog drama from Richie I almost forgot we got a show tonight no one cares for anymore.

Salaam Aleikum,

Ouch, that sounds so harsh.

Bon Jovi show #11 for me. The last show in St. Paul was really good, but I have much lower expectations for this one. I'll be in the cheap lowers behind the stage, so for $30 a ticket hopefully I won't be too disappointed. I'm still looking forward to the KTF solo, the three new songs (water especially), and LOAP with the '94 intro. I'll just try to make the most of it and not try to expect too much.

Hopefully something interesting pops up. Phil X said he was learning new songs on twitter.. Have a good one.

I think they played 'Damned' in St. Paul in 2008. Would be amazing to see Phil X tear into that.

I remember that! I was going nuts, and everyone else in my section was sitting down, with many of them watching me. lol!

Hope you have a good show :)

They soundchecked

Lost Highway
Bed of Roses
Amen

Amen was soundchecked.

Edit: Guess The Rock beat me to it.

I doubt this is accurate, but a setlist is already posted. http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/bon-jo...n-3d8ed9b.html

Hm. Looks like a setlist from an earlier show. I don't think Jon would drop so many new songs and then add them all back in at once, especially not with Phil there.

I'd be thrilled with that setlist. Too bad it's definitely fake.

Well I hope you get something similar! :]

Just an idea to get some talk on these threads that arent getting a lot of hype because of no Richie and a lack of excitement, I think that Bed of Roses should open the encore and JBJ could sing it from the circle up front like usual. I think this would win over the crowd to open up the encore instead of lulling them with WWWB. At least they could try this with Richie out, so Jon will have more attention on himself anyways

At least it's a really well known song. I love their ballads. I just don't know why he chooses to play them back-to-back-to-back in the middle of the show.

That sounds like a cool idea with bed of roses. If WWWB keeps opening the encore I'm gonna throw something from my pit seat at Jon. It's seriously beyond stupid.

It's only opened it for one show hasn't it?

I think so. But that's still one too many.

I think it's been 2.

It's a shame, I actually love that song, but like Whole Lot Of Leaving, it doesn't seem to translate that well live.

Is there going to be a PBP?

Bill says last song on the set list reads: I Love This Town or Always.

I hope they get always. I love this town needs a long rest.

They soundchecked it tonight. I think Phil is still learning it. A friend of a friend (I know), chatted with Phil and he apparently said he's working on it and it will be back. FWIW.

Of all the songs they play tonight, it doesn't get easier than that one, from a guitar stand point. What's FWIW?

FWIW = For What It's Worth (I thought that's what all the kids say).

And agreed. Not a guitar player, but didn't think that one would be difficult.

I have the set list. Now how the hell do I post an attachment?
