My Bon Jovi and Jon's injury report of New Meadowlands Stadium

[madmonkeygirl]

ok PART 2...onto the show

I had 5th Row PIT 2 Seat 5 which was perfect. Not close to Richie but looking at the stage a bit to the right of Jon's mic stand. It seemed Jon liked to use this side of the stage for most of the show and would often stand directly in front of me giving me the optimum viewing experience. The stage was set up higher than normal so those in the first 3 rows had obstucted view of the stage and Jon while i was directly in his eye sight line being 5th row Hey i will take what i can get.

Onto the show...wow amazing, awesome, i was deeply just in awe and lost in the music each song and singing along. I did manage amazing photos and tons of them with a couple of videos as well which will be up on YouTube soon. Starting the show with Raise Your Hands which i found to be perfect for the stadium and a hometown show. I literally Raised My Hands for most of the entire show...

I had a few Jon moments which are just wow...first one was during You Give Love a Bad Name. Now don't get me wrong i love this song just they sing it every single show so to me i could so do away with this song but hey...so 3rd song in they start up with this song. Before i know it Jon comes and stands in front of me my line of sight. And looks right at me singing "paint that smile on your lips, blood red nails on your fingertips" i screamed and i could see he was trying to keep from laughing yet flashed that famous Bon Jovi smile and everyone turned around to look at me lol. That's it i was a goner.

During "Love's The Only Rule" once again i was so immersed in this song and the way Jon sings it and the lyrics Jon steps right into my line of sight and starts singing to me and i completely forget the lyrics he sang (goofball i am).

I managed a few Jon looking at me shots through out the entire show. Richie too Richie doing Lay Your Hands On Me. At first i didn't want to hear him doing a Jon song. That is Jon's song and i LOVE that song. But when he stepped up to sing that song saying to the audience "I know it's not Sunday but i'm going to take you to church anyways" i knew what song he was going to do. And to be honest he does one HELL of a job with that song (video will be uploaded to You Tube).

I did have a David sing along moment since his keyboards were back aways but on the right side of the stage where he belongs not on Richie's side. So near the end of the show i was ignoring him so i figured ok here's a chance to give him some attention. The guy in front of me sat down so i had a direct line of eye sight to David Bryan. I smiled at him singing along and waiting for him to acknowledge me. After a moment he looks out and makes eye contact smiles and sings along with me singing and smiling back at him. Even for a few seconds that was pure AMAZING. I felt better giving David some attention..

Final part to come with Jon hurting his leg or so everyone though....what really happened.
