Bon Jovi in London 21/06/19

The old Wembley Stadium held plenty of great Bon Jovi memories, including the three shows in 1995 that culminated in the Live from London VHS/DVD. Bon Jovi was also the last band to play there in 2000 before it was closed for demolition, and were supposed to open the new Wembley in 2006 but had to change venues due to construction delays. They finally returned to the famous site on their This House Is Not For Sale Tour, where the new Wembley Stadium now stands. Here's what was played:

Yes, you read that correctly. No "Wanted Dead or Alive", but "I'd Die For You" was played.

Def Leppard opened for Bon Jovi on this show, the first time they've played together since 1986. I've seen both bands live, but it would be kind of cool to see them on the same bill (probably more so in their respective peaks though). Def Leppard posted these pics on their social media accounts:

"I'd Die For You" (it's only 26 not-great-sounding seconds, but I had to include it since it was the biggest surprise of the night):

"Someday I'll Be Saturday Night" (most of it):

"In These Arms" (partial, with the screen oriented the wrong way but you get the idea):
