Does anyone have a link to the acoustic version of Superman that Jon did for Hurricane Sandy? I can't find it. THAT one was my favorite.

I agree... This still seems like the Lost Highway tour and it has gotten really, really stale. Play the same 24 songs every night of the tour... maybe throw 2 audibles up every night, if they want to. BUT, change the set dramatically every tour. The die hards who want change would all walk away much more satisfied and the casuals won't know the difference.

Instead of Crash, play Next 100 Years. Instead of Lost Highway, play Any Other Day. Keep the hits if they must, add 4-6 news songs off the album they are promoting but shake up the rest.

Two of the reasons my days of seeing 6 shows in a tour are well gone.

You know, I "threatened" it for years on this board. Not sure if the final straw was Richie leaving, Jon's shit voice, or the set lists, but I saw them just once on this tour, and that's enough for me.

I think a really big part of it for me is Jon's refusal to play some of the songs that are clearly better than what is being played. "I'm With You" has got to be one of the easiest songs vocally to sing, and every message board I've seen votes it as the best song on the record, yet he won't play it. He continues to play "Always", which no doubt, we love, but he simply can't sing any more. "This Ain't A Love Song" would be so much easier, and such a nice change of pace.

It's just funny how for years, Jon has always been so against becoming a novelty act and takes the band so seriously, and now, it's become JUST a novelty act and a joke.

Most of the time, the Always performances are good enough to me to merit being included, but 'I'm with you' on I'm With You...

But then most of us would have different choices from all albums. Sometimes I think JBJ just plays the songs he likes and that, over the years, he has gone off a lot of stuff. There are so many singles that were hits that have just been shelved.

One Wild Night
Say It Isn't So
Everyday
Misunderstood
I Believe
All These Days singles
Blaze of Glory

Then there's all the album tracks that JBJ said he was going to start including, and to be fair did so on the Circle Tour and Bon Jovi Live but has since completely abandoned.

I am looking for Always.
There is only one video around, the performance seems to be very good (strange but true)

gabriele 10-15-2013 10:43 AM

Always.

I think that's an amazing performance.
