The iHeart Radio... Tho I'm not sure if it counts as a concert, because of the small setlist.

Jon was so out of tune, that was really bad.

Which one, 2012 or 2018? Both were horrendous.

Hmmmmm... Maybe I have a super ear and a super smell that I can smell alcohol from long distances.

Nijmegen 2006 was bad for me. After queuing all night and being in front row and very tired. My mood was horrible as was the show. Second show that comes to mind is Düsseldorf 2011 plain setlist and performances.

- Chicago 1987 Night 2 (the band had no monitors for the entire show and said that they must've sounded horrendous)

- Dublin 1988 Night 1 (well documented on the AAA video and the audience recording gives you a glimpse of how bad it might've been)

- Brussels 1988 (something seriously pissed Jon off during the show, he made a snarky remark at the beginning of Prayer and they even threw out Wanted, having the show clock in under 90 minutes)

- Santiago 1993 (according to attendees, the concert was shifted to a side field with just 5,000 tickets sold, the sound was off all the time and the band members were yelling at each other on stage since they were pissed off)

- Madrid 1996 / Padova 2001 / Washington 2006 / Pittsburgh 2017 (Jon was sick and advised by doctors not to do the show, but thought he was smarter and they all turned into nightmare performances)

Agreed about Dusseldorf 2011 - I wanted to like it but it just fell flat.

Sometimes what’s going on in your life effects how you feel at a show. So for me the first one is...The palladium gig in London in Oct 2016.
My father in law had been diagnosed with pancreatic cancer back in the Feb. He had about a year to live but was doing well. I entered the ballot for tickets but didn’t get any. Luckily someone on twitter gave me 2 so me and the wife went. From start of Oct the father in law took a huge turn for the worse.
We came out the gig, got come and soon as we walked in got a call to say he’d been taken to hospital (pretty sure gig was on the Monday) and he never came out. He died on the Friday.
Now, that aside cos it was the first time we went to a Bon Jovi gig not 100% in the mood but it dawned on me that night that I really disliked the THINFS album. The band were playing it well but I was thinking this album is terrible apart from a few. Still feel that way about it.

2nd - not the bands fault but MK Bowl 96.
I dragged 2 non Jovi fans all the way to the gig saying how good they would be etc and the weather was horrific. It thundered and lightening and pissed down all day. Real shitty support including a local band and Joan Osborne didn’t help but by time Jovi came on it was so windy the sound went up, up and away. You could stand there talking at normal volume and hear every word everyone was saying. It was a cold drab horrible day. Not the bands fault but you really need the weather if you outside in a field!
