After pulling out so many surprises last night, I was afraid that Bon Jovi was going to end the year with a fizzer instead of a bang. Looks like I was wrong. Among many other things, my mate Anthony, who'd made the trip from Perth to Sydney, got his wish of "I Believe" (which made its tour debut). "Who Says You Can't Go Home" (which I've said numerous times didn't chart in Australia) was NOT played... I think for the first time since it was released? Unfortunately it was replaced with "I Love This Town", a song I was hoping would be retired, but they played a lot of favourites so I can't complain too much.
Why can't every show be like Christmas? ;)

Hath's Circle Tour blog will have all the videos and media links, but there'll be plenty of Sydney videos right here, too. I was originally going to do one massive video post covering all three shows, but I think I may have to split them up now. ;)
This show rocked! What a fantastic night. So happy to hear some songs that haven't been played in so long. Loved it! Jon singing Halleujah in the rain was just amazing! Feeling a little sad now cause I fear it's going to be a while before we see the boys back in town. Got some great memories though that I can keep reliving.
