Notes:

  • The band’s fourth show at the New Meadowlands Stadium and after the first three concerts, expectations ran high for this one.

  • Raise Your Hands opens a show for the first time this tour.

  • Superman Tonight replaces Lost Highway.

  • Blaze of Glory is dropped.

  • Love’s The Only Rule is added to the setlist.

  • Open All Night and I’ll Be There For You replace Bed of Roses and Diamond Ring.

  • Squeezebox is added to the acoustic section.

  • Have A Nice Day moves up from the encore and after solo, Richie had a problem with the switch on his guitar which caused some awkward silence before he got back to the main riff.

  • Work For The Working Man returns to the main set.

  • The album cuts of These Days are dropped from the encore.

  • During Glad All Over, Jon tore his calf muscle and was visibly in pain when he finished the song and ended the show with Livin’ On A Prayer.

  • Fans who had attended the previous concerts at that venue stated that the band had an off-night and never really found their groove all night long. When watching videos from that night it’s obvious that something just wasn’t right.
