                Notes:

  • Roughly a year after their last visit, Bon Jovi returned to Dublin. This proved to be the only European city/venue to be visited as a headliner twice within the 1995/96 tour (in Paris in 1995 they opened for The Rolling Stones).

  • Lay Your Hands On Me opens the show and Rockin’ In The Free World gets moved to the final encore.

  • Damned is added to the main set.

  • Drift Away is dropped.

  • Blaze Of Glory replaces Stranger In This Town.

  • My Guitar Lies Bleeding In My Arms, Lie To Me and This Ain’t A Love Song are added.

  • These Days night at the RDS! 11 tracks off the album were played! Except for full-album runs, never have there been more tracks off one record in a Bon Jovi show. This also meant that every tune that ever got played live from These Days was played at this concert.

 

Some recordings from that night (not mine).
