3. You Give Love A Bad Name
4. Whole Lotta Leavin
5. Born To Be My Baby
6. Superman Tonight
7. Lost Highway

9. I’ll Sleep When I’m Dead
10. We Got It Goin On
11. Bad Medicine with Pretty Woman
12. Lay Your Hands On Me (Richie vox)

14. I’ll Be There For You
15. When We Were Beautiful
16. Runaway
17. Work For The Working Man
18. Who Says You Can’t Go Home
19. Keep The Faith

20. Wanted Dead Or Alive
21. Livin’ On A Prayer

This is a smaller amphitheater, so don't expect the full Buick production. This combined with the absence of Richie, the already vanilla sets, I can only expect more vanilla, though I do hope they pull something nice out of the bag.

Aloha !

I was at the show in 2010, sitting on the lawn. That show was pretty short but we'd just seen the band play a 2 hour and 45 minute show that was one of the worst shows we'd ever seen and compared to this it made the show at SPAC so much more fun. Jon being on so many painkillers helped a lot as well, just a shame he didn't dare to be a bit more risky with the set. He really had fun on stage and it was one of the first shows for me where the band showed that an American show doesn't have to be dull if the band is "on".

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan

The smaller shows have been shorter but have each had something good to say for them, so hopefully something different will get thrown in the mix as Jon doesn't have to be in stadium pleaser mode.

I agree with Seb, from the set list you'd think what a snoozefest but it was actually a really fun show! I was I think 2nd row and a loopy Jon was quite fun!!

I'm a setlist geek to the core, but I agree that vanilla show in 2010 was light years better than the debacle that was the 4th show at what was then New Meadowlands Stadium. Jon was most definitely loopy, but the band came out with such determination. You could feel the "we can do this" attitude. And we'd joked that they should open with Last Man Standing, but I never thought they'd actually DO it! LOL That was a great moment.

Matt replied in a Fb status asking about an opening act and said that tonight's show would be the "first of it's kind"...hmm..wonder what that means.

Bon Jovi are actually the support act.

Actually you are on to something there...not Bon Jovi but Kings Of Suburbia..that's the rumor.

[bj4ever]

The Drills would also of been an original way to go.
That's the first thing that came to mind when you mentionned ''first of it's kind''

I was just making stuff up but that would be pretty cool actually.
