Bon Jovi finally made their way to Philly this week, and I was able to score tickets to Wednesday’s show!

First off, the set list (courtesy of Blame It On The Love):

• We Weren’t Born To Follow

• Keep The Faith
• Work For The Working Man
• Who Says You Cant Go Home
• Love’s The Only Rule
• Only Lonely (ENCORE)
• Wanted Dead Or Alive (ENCORE)
• Livin’ On A Prayer (ENCORE)

From all accounts, Wednesday had the better set list, so that worked out well for me.

Philly.com posted a review of Tuesday’s show, along with a bunch of behind-the-scenes pictures which are pretty cool. Looking at the comments on there, it seems that there were some mixed feelings about the show. You’re always going to have some people you can’t please, but from my view, everyone looked to be having a great time!

Want to see some video from the show? I left my Flip cam at home (pretty sure they wouldn’t have let me in with it), but Deb308 posted a handful of videos on YouTube. The quality’s not great, but she probably recorded it with her cell phone or something.

Also, 94.1 WYSP (the local Rock station in Philadelphia) posted a Bon Jovi Photo Gallery that’s definitely worth checking out. Nothing from this show, but 44 pictures from various events over the past year or so.

It was quite a night, and my ears are still faintly ringing. That’s all for now!
