This Ain't a Love Song in Prague

Bon Jovi finished their June 24, 2013 show in Prague with "This Ain't a Love Song". Here are a couple of videos:

This Ain't a Love Song - shot from the middle of the pit, but good audio


This Ain't a Love Song - closer view as it buckets down with rain


I think they should do this regularly... It could be just as epic as the Live from London performance -- which, incidentally, was 18 years ago today (June 25, 1995, the third of three sold out shows at Wembley Stadium).

You can watch the full Prague concert at this link. :)

This Ain't a Love Song, Radio Saved My Life Tonight, Love's the Only Rule in Germany

The last two Bon Jovi shows in Germany have featured the Because We Can Tour premiere of three songs. "The Radio Saved My Life Tonight" from the 100,000,000 Bon Jovi Fans Can't Be Wrong box set and "Love's the Only Rule" from The Circle were played for the first time on the tour in Stuttgart on June 21, 2013. "This Ain't a Love Song", the lead single from These Days was played in Cologne on June 22.

Check out the videos. :)

This Ain't a Love Song live in Cologne - Jon looks rather pleased with himself. ;)


Love's the Only Rule live in Stuttgart - If they're going to represent The Circle every night (and I'm not saying they shouldn't because I actually love that album), I wouldn't mind this replacing "We Weren't Born to Follow", just quietly.

Bon Jovi Stuttgart set list 21/6/13 + Wanted Dead or Alive ft Jon Bon Marco

Interesting set from Bon Jovi in Stuttgart. Apparently many of the songs were requests. Jon's "mini me" (a young fan called Marco) was brought onto stage for "Wanted", while Austrian singer Christine Stürmer joined the band for "Who Says". "The Radio Saved My Life Tonight" and "Love's the Only Rule" made their tour debuts.
