Notes:
-
Setlist comparisons are to the last documented performance in Hartford on March 6th.
- Same main set as on the previous shows.
- Jon stated that this was the 8th time the band played the Spectrum and it was obvious they wanted to go the extra mile playing that venue.
- The I’ll Be There For You rendition of this show has been a fan’s favourite ever since. Jon goes higher midway through the famous scream, then ad-libs while the band keeps backing him on the chorus, only to top it with more raw additional lyrics and bone-chilling screams!
- A first encore block is inserted which sees the return of Living In Sin as well as the band jamming with Skid Row to Bad Company’s “All Right Now”.
- Never Say Goodbye returns as a special final encore with Jon and Richie doing it again in the stripped-down acoustic style.
