A review by Carl / carlos_2007@hotmail.co.uk	11 June 2013
After a good show in Manchester, I went down to Villa Park Birmingham, not expecting it to be so good, but my word they were on another level at Villa Park. Made sense to come here being originally from Birmingham and a regular here anyway during the football season. Only thing that wasn't quite so good is I think they messed up with the sound a bit, the bass was far too much. But the performance from Bon Jovi was brilliant, easily the best show since Hyde Park 2003 and maybe as good as that show as well. Some nice surprises in the set list, getting Bed Of Roses, Blood On Blood, Always, Dry County and Runaway. Jon looked in fine form, moving around the stage despite now being 51 and they generally looked like they were having fun. Also twice when it looked like the band were packing up and going home they came back and did extra songs. Even today I am still in shock at what we saw, it was one of the most memorable nights ever. Full setlist That's What the Water Made Me You Give Love a Bad Name Born to Be My Baby Raise Your Hands Lost Highway Runaway It's My Life Because We Can What About Now We Got It Goin' On Keep the Faith Amen Bed of Roses Captain Crash & the Beauty Queen From Mars We Weren't Born to Follow Who Says You Can't Go Home Rockin' All Over the World (John Fogerty cover) I'll Sleep When I'm Dead Bad Medicine (with "Old Time Rock 'n' Roll") Encore: Dry County Wanted Dead or Alive In These Arms Happy Now Have a Nice Day Livin' on a Prayer Encore 2: Always Blood on Blood
