The last time (with the exception of the promo show last year) Bon Jovi played Stuttgart was May 28, 2008.

The setlist contained 6 surprises; The Last Night replaced These Days, Bounce replaced Last Man Standing, Drift Away was done as a request with Bobby doing spectacular lead vocals, Living In Sin and Wild Is The Wind opened the encore and Any Other Day closed the show.

The band did play in Mannheim, which is relatively close to Stuttgart, on July 16, 2011 though. I was at this show, and it was one of the best Bon Jovi shows I have seen. The setlist contained 7 surprises; The Radio Saved My Life and I Get A Rush were played, with the addition of Miss Fourth Of July, which was a spontaneous decision if my memory serves me right. No Apologies was added to the main set, and the encore opened with a spectacular rendition of Hey God. Hallelujah was added as a request, and the show ended with Love's The Only Rule. Yes, good times. Which is making this current tour such a sad experience...

A graph showcasing the order of album and single tracks. A peak indicates the chart position in the Billboard Hot 100, thus a crowd possibly knowing such a song. The more peaks, the more familiar a crowd is with the entire set. In case no peak is noted the song either didn't chart or wasn't released as a single.

I planned on going to this show (Stuttgart houses the Mercedes-Benz and Porsche factories...drool), but when Richie was out, so was I. This area has a reputation of getting good shows, but with Cologne, the last show for Germany, being on the next day, and ticket sales having been very slow for this one, I'm not expecting anything wonderful this time around. For those who are going; I hope I'm wrong!

Salaam Aleikum,

Please stop using that yellow color for the graph. I can only see the Mc Donalds sign. Damn I'm hungry.

I'll be there!

Wait, no I won't.

Aloha !

According to Thierry the Diamond Circle isn't even half full, several people, including him, have been offered a free VIP tour. Then again, he might be bullshitting me anyway, trying to make me jealous for not being there.

BUT I JUST BOUGHT MYSELF A NEW EXHAUST PIPE BABY.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

Someone posted on Twitter that Guano Apes (?) is opening. Not familiar with that band. Guess I need to Google. :D

At least the Fanclub gave free upgrade again. And a friend Posted a Photo of a pavillion that was somewhere in the crowd Last time and now is at the entrance . So the used area of the field is way smaller than last time.

If this is true then jon will see this, and with that he might make this tour tour the last one

Aloha !

Why? What's Jon's problem with exhaust pipes? I really needed a new one, the other one was leaking. :(

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

radio saved my life tonight

David's backing vocals are really loud in that mix, and really good too!

'Radio Saved My Life Tonight'? Good choice!

EDIT: Is anyone recording the audio? :)

Jon sounding in a great mood tonight....few more surprises me thinks !

Runaway!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

Thanks a whole ****ing lot :D!!!

Is this really the show?

Well they are playing anything now

yer i think so ! not sure how much of it...ohhh that might have been it !

Ach is that it :(

Sorry all, just seen the link on twitter ! did not realize it was only a snippet :(

Hey, no apologies (get it :p ).

Better than nothing!

lol i see what you did there :D

Aloha !

Nein nein nein the DJ said they'd broadcast some more later. That is if my German isn't failing me. :)

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

Its my Life
Because We Can
What About Now
We Got It Goin on

hey the german for Bon Jovi is Bon Jovi !!....who knew :D

It's back!

Faith.

i almost dare not say this...but sounds bloody good to me !

Aloha !

Yeah, because it's not from Stuttgart. It's got Richie on guitar and Jon sounds way too good on this. You can even hear Richie sing on it! I think it's the version from the New Meadowlands, but I haven't listened to that in years now.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

You're right, I jumped the gun there! :(

correct !!

That makes a lot of sense. I was just going to comment that Phil X has really improved!

Well that explains it. I was thinking there's been some miraculous cure!

Superman Tonight

Damn. Jovi sounds a lot like Creedence all of a sudden. ;-)



(Oddly enough, this morning I bought a ticket to see John Fogerty in October.)

Aloha !

I want this station to start playing some old fashion Schlager music to annoy everyone who's tuned in right now. Push that music down Bon Jovi fans' throat like Jon's doing with Capt. Crash.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

lost highway

'Superman Tonight' needs to go away.

That's cool. I've been listening to "Wrote a Song for Everyone" quite a bit lately and enjoy it. If he comes to MN I'll definitely try to go, as I'd love to hear him play a full CCR album.

captain crash....
