Set was pretty standard as you'd probably expect:
iHeartRadio Music Festival - MGM Grand - September 21, 2012
- Livin' on a Prayer
- You Give Love a Bad Name
- It's My Life
- Wanted Dead or Alive
- Who Says You Can't Go Home
- Bad Medicine / Shout!
There are some pictures and a mini recap of Bon Jovi's set on the iHeartRadio website.
And here's an interview from before the show:
I missed the broadcast but from what I've read, Jon was very sick and/or sounded even worse than he did on the Tokyo 2008 WOWOW broadcast. However, I'd love to hear comments from anyone who either watched/listened to the stream, or was there live... What did you think of the show?
ADDENDUM: Hath now has audio and video links on her blog so you can judge for yourself if you missed it. Hmmm...
I only caught the last 3 songs. I thought he was forcing it a bit. Considering that they usually play 2 hours, it would be hard to get into the groove with only 6 songs. Some of the more critical comments from other sites seem to refer more to the first 3 songs. I usually don't complain about "Who Says" but this one had w-a-y too many "al'rights."
ReplyDeleteHe didn't seem sick to me in the interview or in his performance but I think the desert air did a number on his voice. Vegas can be a problem for singers. Whatever, I think he gave it his best shot, worked the crowd well and I have no complaints
Cool, thanks for sharing your thoughts :)
