Aloha !

Bon Jovi have a tendency to cram the setlists full with non hits no one cares for. As of right now, the current setlist has 5 songs in it which have never been a hit in the U.S.A. I've excluded everything that used to be there every night like Capt. Crash and I Love This Town, these are the ones that've shown up almost every single show:

1. Lost Highway
The song was released as a single in 2008. Even though it hit some obscure chart in the U.S. it's fair to say no one knows the song. It works well, but so would many other songs.

2. Whole Lot Of Leavin'
This song was never released as a single. Out of anything I've seen the band play in America this one, together with Work for the Working Man always tanked the most in concert. Yet it's still there almost every night.

3. We Got It Goin' On
It's not hard to see why Jon keeps it in the set. It obviously gets the crowd going which is probably why it's still there. Like Raise Your Hands it's written for live shows. But its gimmick has worn off on me by now. Time to go?

4. We Weren't Born To Follow
A song charting properly in the Billboard Hot 100 as Fye (a store in the USA) released it as a pysical single. Their last real hit. Even though it worked as a live song in 2010 when it had just been released as a single there's just no hope for it anymore. I've a feeling it's there because Jon wants to go out there pretending he's got hits from every decade, but who is he fooling?

5. I'll Sleep When I'm Dead
Released as a single in 1993 and just hitting the Billboard Hot 100 it's another one of the party songs that just won't go away. When including the covers its bearable and the silly dance routine in 2011 made it bearable but I've grown so tired of it by now. Apart from its intro I also feel it doesn't work as well in America as Jon would like to believe. Does it deserve its live spot still?

25% of the set is stuff that could be exchanged for pretty much anything else. You're allowed to pick one. Which one has to go?

Salaam Aleikum,

All of them.

Born to follow for sure. After that lost highway and sleep.

I'd drop most of 'em. Replace We Got it...with an 80's song with that vibe/swagger if Jon really wants a chance to shake his ass and wave at the crowd. If I had to pick just one...Whole Lot of Leaving though it's my favourite of the five.

[TwinFan]

Whole Lot of Leavin'. The other 4 are at least a bit recognizable, and CAN be decent live. WLOL is just nothingburger

[Bounce7800]

Picked WLOL but essentially the first 3 need to disappear and follow needs to be seen a hell of a lot less. Sleep gets a pass from me but again should be rotated with others.

Born to Follow should be erased from history.

[Xavi]

We Got It Goin On

[bonjovi90]

All five. Immediately!

Born to Follow for sure and then Sleep. The others should be in rotation but not constant.
