According to a fan in attendance, Jon stuffed up "Bad Medicine":
They restarted the song, by the way.

As for the set list... I know Jon tends to string together "boring" sets in many cities in North America (which kind of punishes diehard American fans for the "sins" of casual fans, but that's a whole other story). The fact remains that we've only heard 29 songs over the course of eight shows on this tour so far. And I can't believe "Because We Can" is an encore song now, lol. "Work for the Working Man" (which I don't mind but most fans seem to hate) did get dropped though. 😉

Since I'm yet to find any complete videos from the 2017 OKC show, I thought I'd share one from the previous Bon Jovi concert there. It was also at Chesapeake Arena, on the Because We Can Tour. The date was 16 March 2013... which would turn out to be Richie Sambora's second last gig with Bon Jovi.

This is "Always" from 2013. Hopefully it reappears on the THINFS Tour soon:

 

UPDATE 23/2/17:
Videos from Oklahoma City 

A few vids from the 2017 show have now been uploaded.

This is a great video (in terms of image and sound quality) of "Scars on This Guitar":

Here's "Livin' on a Prayer":

Jon stepped into the crowd and kisses someone during "Bad Medicine":


If you have links to videos from this concert, or any others on the THINFS Tour (past and future), please share them in the comments or email us. 😉

Were you at the OKC show?

  1. You raise a good point about American fans. I hope their international shows prove to have more interesting set lists. I really do! But at this point I'm not sure it will happen
