Indeed. It's so weird seeing the board dead when BJ is touring. Those surprises wouldn't make my night.

Radio should never be played like this. It sucks everything out of the song.

But it's being played like this for almost ten years now, it's not like it's suddenly go back to being played the day it was recorded. I'd love to hear him attempt the original vocals with a faster tempo.

If you want to make it happen, you will find things that make a show "to die for" and the best of your life so far, like for some fans hearing Radio.... LOL

Let's face it, the epic shows are very few and very far between lately, those forking out the $$$ for pit tickets have to somehow justify the expense.:rolleyes:

I'm aware that it's the live version it's always been, I was refering to any rendition of the song, be it 2004 or 2013. I think it should've never been played, it' so boring live. There are so many better choices from the box set..

While I would love to hear it in the original vocals and a faster tempo, there is NO WAY that could happen, not even an attempt. You know it would be a disaster. Dem vocals man, dem vocals..

I hope you are right !

I get your point but honestly the reviews that I have seen have been great. All the comments have been best show, keeps on getting better. Someone on twitter said that it was his first Bon Jovi show and he loved it.

I see the opposite. But comments about the shows are few and far between. Most don't care now. And that is perhaps even worse than the sharp criticism.

But you are a Richie fan. I am sure that you are following all the Richie followers and none of them would be commenting on the shows now.

I follow a lot of Bon jovi fans and even they waste more time talking about Richie being gone and trying to find someone to blame instead of talking about the shows.
But I'm not only talking about them. I'm talking about the casual concert goers.

I couldn't care less what the casuals think, or what their opinion of Bon Jovi is. I want the opinions of people that know their subject, and I'd love it if Bon Jovi were to cater to those people instead of the casuals.
