Official October 8, 2013 -> Save Mart Center, Fresno, CA, USA thread
 

Now with more fudge.

And the return of a mister TICO TORRES.

Confirmed?? :O

I saw it on Backstage, Facebook (Yeah I know, not always reliable) and The Rock posted this on the Tico thread:

Abby their wardrobe assistant just tweeted:

@clothesrock
I hear the hitman

:D

What would really be cool is a great big chorus of "Happy Birthday!" His appendix and gall bladder may have missed his sixtieth, but HE didn't!

Tonight is the 11th Anniversary of the release of Bounce.

But I bet there won't be any songs from the album on the setlist.

Tico is onstage, confirmed via twitter by @bat_erik.
Bad Name and Born To Be My Baby also confirmed.

@clothesrock
Tico is back and is looking and sounding awesome!!! It's going to be a fantastic night!!!

Does he appear to be using a brace? Hope he doesn't overdo it. And of course, tell us if Jon says anything! AND SING HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

Shot Through The Heart

Shot through the heart ehhhhhh?

Shot Through The Heart? It's quite hilarious that of all the rarities to put on as an audible, he chooses this. I mean, I wouldn't say no... but there are so many better songs.

It's also easy as hell for him to sing....

Id be cool with Shot thru the heart !

I'm fine with Shot through the heart!!

I have only one complain about "Thick as thieves" becoming a regular: Why in bloody hell didn't Jon included it since the start of the tour?!! I really longed to listen to it in MXC.

I'm fine with Shot Through The Heart too! Nice song, and sounded great live back in 2010.

Shot Thru the Heart is one of my all-time favorites. Would love to hear it in Chicago on the 23rd. If LYHOM is real, that'd be a nice return too.

Well i enjoyed the last couple of hours thinking there may have been a good old rareity .......thx whoever made that up .

And the moron that updates the setlists on the official site has claimed it is To The Fire from the second album again.... And that the gig was at the Honda Center in Annaheim....

So glad to see my favorite man back!!!!

Work For The Working Man as an encore opener. This tour doesn't cease to amaze me.

When you thought it couldn't get worse. Here they pull this one :D

Can't wait for the next addition! Maybe drop Saturday Night for acoustic Fast Cars?! :D

So my favorite song Sat Night is dummed down (acoustic version....yuck) and he resurrected Work (vomit). Hope to God I dont get Work in Vegas and he plays the real Sat Night!

I saw that and about gagged. What is Jon thinking...

I normally don't make a bathroom/beer run during the encore, but may call an audible if I get Work in encore!:bad-word:

We wernt born to follow is my toilet/ciggie break song . Freakin loath it .

When he sings "I lost mmmmyyyy ppppeeennnsssiioonnnn" I just picture JBJ aged 85 in a Florida care home.

Most unrock n roll line ever.

He may as well sing "I can no longer afford a stair lift, I need an accessible ramp and handles to grip onto getting in and out of the shower"

LOL dont even joke about it, maybe that's the kind of lyrics we'll get if Jon is still writing songs in 25 years...

So he shouldve changed the possinle audibles to suit you then? Despite the fact you weren't there ? This board is ****ing unbelievable the shit some come out with.

Final Bows. Tico has lost weight but to do a 2hr and 20 minute show on his first night back is amazng.

Awww....I know I'm a sap but that was cool!! :)

Considering how we could be feeling if Tico's appendix had attacked him during the soundcheck (or even worse, the gig itself!), I can tolerate feeling like a sap.

He must have had the kind of surgery where they just poke a couple of holes in you rather than gut you like a fish, LOL!

Thanks so much for the video link -- and for making this screen capture possible -- and for the closure! :D
