Sounds nice!
The Feeling rule!
And Bon Jovi was here in Holland last week, during Holland-Italy (soccer-match)
He showed the game before he played his concert; I heard it was a pretty good one....

Have Fun!

nah, I'd go for 'rock' myself.

whatever floats your boat, I guess.

4 hours till setting off time, kids!

alrighty, kids.

it's official.

they are still immense live.

possibly better than they were in their 'prime'.

played for 2 and a half hours, including a rather amazing rendition of dry county. Jon, as always, sure knows how to work a crowd!

I'd give it 9.5/10

the feeling, however, were horrible.

the performance was fine, but the EQ was such that you could hear nothing but an overly-loud distorted roar coming from the bass, which was a bit of a let down.

but all in all, mint.

"I think the music is much better than the musician, but also the audience is as much applauding itself as us. One of the things people forget about these large concerts is that the audience have heard the records, it knows the songs from the radio and the music has become part of their lives. When they hear those songs their own selves are caught up in them and they are in some way applauding the connection." - Bonno, June 1985
