Regina set list + article

Bon Jovi shot a video for "This Is Our House" at this show, suggesting that it might be the first single off the greatest hits. No offense, but I sure hope the other new songs are a LOT better.

Nice to see "Love's the Only Rule" played.

Also, an article by Jeff Dedekker appeared in the Leader-Post ahead of the Regina show. It's a nice article but this bit made me smirk, Have a Nice Day style:
"During the course of the late afternoon, we come in every day, even 60 shows in, and do a power sound check. I'd have a list of songs in my head -- 'I was thinking about this one from that album. Why don't we play this one and tomorrow we'll do it.' I always kept them going," explained Bon Jovi. "It became a bit of a game for us so that by the end even Tico was bringing me a list of songs saying, 'We didn't do this one and we didn't do that one.' It became fun, because for whatever it's worth, not that many bands go out there and do 70 different songs in one location."
Read the full article here, and Hath's response at this link. I know us diehard fans can seem difficult to please, but the truth is, we're cynics with faith -- faith in the band, faith that our faith will be rewarded -- or else we wouldn't still be here.

  1. Absolutely agree Lee-Ann.
    "This is our House" sounds like a B-side track that wasn't quite up to scratch to make an album.
