Maybe people have better things to do with their time on a sat night than report what songs jovi have played.
I personally have no interest in what songs they play at a gig I'm not going to but I'm interested in if they were played well.
Everyone who went enjoyed it from what we've heard.


I think the end is nigh for your time as a fan of band.
Go and find another band - plenty out there!!

I guess American gigs are just boring so no one bothers with pbp's . Shame ... Even the Americans dont bother to update us cause they are boring too .

Yea i can see the scene now, few years time Jon gets all the band together, sits them round a table and says " i want to do another album, followed by another tour, we all in?"

Tico looks up and says "Jon...Jon my boy did you not see the lack of PBP on Jovi talk? it's time to call it a day my friend"

The rest all nod in agreement!


sound likely? hell no! that's how stupid that comment was!

The lack of PBP on this tour shows pretty well the lack of fans interest

This is a much more important situation than what is merely discussed here ...
The pride of a few fans discussing (when not insulting each others) behind their computer screen is <cute> but it is not really showing something healthy, strong, solid about the band BIGGEST money maker = their fans

It's funny, because some people's only comments are those foreseeing a doomy future for Bon Jovi because people don't post.

Probably not much interest because the sets are so static. There's no chance of any massive surprise like there was on the last few tours.

Having said that, I still don't know the full set so this is one shit PBP

Reading comments on Facebook from those I know that went to the show said it was a really good show but vanilla in terms of set list. I don't think the level of interest in a PBP is any indication of the bands popularity or demise as everyone knows that those posting on a message board is a tiny, albeit vocal, minority.

During the US tour you can pretty much copy and paste the set list from the night before.
A PBP is pretty pointless.

I was there last night and although there wasn't any real rarities, the set was fine, no complaints from me. It was a solid length with 2 encores and Jon was on fire. I think there was a screw up at the start of Water, watch the video and see for yourself. The band sounded great and what a job done by Phil X. Bad Name, RYH, BTBMB, and Lost Highway all sounded pretty good and Jon was really moving around the stage and was very much into this show. It's My Life got one of the biggest reactions of the night, then BWC followed it and Jon forgot the words for a line and I thought this would ruin his mood but it seemed to make his mood better, he admitted he screwed up and smiled and kept going. What About Now didn't seem to go over that well with the crowd, who by the way was pretty good. WGIGO and KTF were rockin' like usual but Phil X outshines Bobby badly on the guitar duel. JBJ used the circle for Memory and Bed of Roses, during Roses someone threw him a Patriot hat and he wore it for part of the song. Runaway sounded good, Captain Crash got a mixed reaction and WWBTF went over decently, but Bobby's solo made my ears bleed, that was awful. We got Start Me Up in the middle of Sleep. Bad Medicine had a Shout teaser but i think Bad Medicine created one of the most sentimental moments of the concert. Someone threw a "Boston Strong" shirt onstage and instantly Jon put it on to a roar from the crowd. This was nice to see after all Boston had been threw with the Marathon bombings. When Wanted started the encore I was a bit disappointed because I then thought we'll get HAND and Prayer and be done, but I knew Jon was having too much fun tonight for a short show. After Wanted was Saturday Night which got a good reaction. HAND followed which was a highlight for me since I love the production used for this song, and then how can you not love Prayer at a Bon Jovi concert? After Prayer, I knew they weren't done, and they huddled and decided on Always, and I thought Jon sang it very well, his vocals were in top form last night. After Always we got OTRNR, I wish we got In These Arms or I'm With You, but OTRNR went over alright and Dave had a nice solo. I knew we would get I Love This Town, since Jon made it clear throughout the show that he loves the Krafts, the Patriots, and playing Gillette. After ILTT, I thought we might get one more, but that was it, you could see from the final bows that Jon loved it. David sounded excellent like always, and I think Tico deserves a lot more recognition and credit that he gets, what a performer he is. Phil X was a good fill in, Bobby served his purpose, and Hugh was solid, even though you can barely see him hidden in the back. Overall, this was the best concert performance wise I have been to, but set wise Mohegan 2011 had many more rarities. I don't think the YouTube videos will do it justice, but I think this was one of the better North American shows this year.
