Not expecting anything too special, especially since there was a show last night too. But hopefully they will at least do a couple different songs for Chicagoland fans who went to the last show. Will update this post with the new setlist when I get back from the show.

I wouldn't get my hopes too high, but normally the 2nd show of back to back shows is the better one.

Don't you mean back to back in the same place?

Hope so for you, but that wasn't the case for Los Angeles. Hell, even back to back shows at Met Life had only one maybe two song changes.

Well, I'm sorry I missed Green Bay and will miss this one. Maybe I'll see some youtube videos, until they come around again.

Keep on Rockin' in a Free World!"

It seems the 2nd of back to back shows in separate cities has had a shorter setlist.

To be honest, I'm fine with whatever because to me, any Bon Jovi show is better than no Bon Jovi show. Especially with the long week I've had, I'm really looking forward to tonight.

There are still many songs they could play tonight that I haven't seen yet that have been played somewhat recently. This will be my 5th show and I have yet to see In These Arms, Always, Captain Crash, Amen, What's Left of Me..all of those would be something different for me.

You're a lucky man.

And compare that to the back-to-back shows in Dublin last tour. 12 songs performed the second night that weren't done the first night, if I recall.

I don't mind the song at all and having never seen it, it would be a welcome change. But it hasn't been played in several shows so even that may be out.

It's funny how different the feeling is actually being at the show and seeing all the fans around you. Makes all the setlist nonsense seem so small and unimportant. These people are just here to have a good time. As am I.

Also may have missed it but how long has Bobby been upgraded to the front of the stage? His stuff is set up in Hughie's old spot and not in the back next to David.
