Take 2 for Bon Jovi in London

Bon Jovi took to the stage at Wembley for the second of three London shows. I was expecting, or at least hoping, for a couple of switch-ups after three identical set lists in a row on the Forever tour, but here's what was played.

London, England - Wembley Stadium #2 - 6 September 2026

  1. With a Little Help from My Friends - The Beatles cover
  2. Beautiful Drug
  3. We Weren't Born to Follow
  4. Lost Highway
  5. You Give Love a Bad Name
  6. Born to Be My Baby
  7. Legendary - featuring James Bay
  8. Whole Lot of Leavin'
  9. Bed of Roses
  10. Have a Nice Day
  11. These Days
  12. This House Is Not For Sale
  13. It's My Life
  14. Livin' on a Prayer
  15. Raise Your Hands
  16. I'll Sleep When I'm Dead
  17. Hey God
  18. Keep the Faith

    Encore:
  19. I'll Be There for You
  20. Wanted Dead or Alive
  21. Bad Medicine
  22. Always 

Not identical, but very, very close. Though I guess doing a duet with James Bay is technically a switch-up. And I'm glad "Hey God" and "These Days" have survived.

Legendary - I sometimes sound like I dissing this song because I think "Living Proof" should have been the lead single...  but "Legendary" is perfectly fine on the album, and it's fun live. James Bay does have a better voice and tone than Jon though, especially now, but it was still an enjoyable performance.


I don't know if everyone is thinking this is the end of the road, or if it's just the vlogger/content creator world we live in, but people keep recording full shows for the 'tube:

Thinkin' on a prayer

There's still one more London show to go so I'll share more thoughts then. 
 
Maybe more tour dates to come in the new year, maybe not. But night 3 in Wembley is, at the very least, the final show of this leg, so let's go out with a metaphorical bang.

Feel free to share your thoughts below. 😊

  1. The performance of Hey God this night is notable as Jon sung the second half of the bridge up an octave from where it normally is and actually sounded really good on it!
