Actually quite a lot in these 15 years!

Crush was released on the 15th June, and as a comeback album (no matter what people think of it these days) at the time it was pretty great for me and defined an era in my life - besides Just Older, One Wild Night, and yes Captain Crash, seriously, what's not to like?

Seeing them at Gatesehead arena on the Crush tour and taking along my friend for his very first gig - and christ, we were both completely stoned.

The entire One Wild Night tour but especially seeing them at Hampden Park for my birthday - I went to the gig myself, had an amazing time, then ended up in a club where they played nothing but Jovi all night. Then back to an after party at my friends.

Shephard's Bush promo show - decided I was going at midnight the night before the gig, had no ticket, booked flights anyway, flew down, couldn't get a ticket for love nor money but someone won one on a radio show that day - and gave it to me! Epic show too. And got together with my future wife

Seeing them five or six times on the Bounce tour - my first tour doing multiple shows, was front or second row at every gig, camped out at Hyde Park and still have that ending with Never Say Goodbye ringing in my ears.

Whole Lot of Leaving.

Lost Highway tour was pretty good.

Getting married in Sri Lanka with Make A Memory as our wedding song.

*THE CIRCLE* - it's still one of my favourite albums, particularly Loves The Only Rule, Brokenpromiseland and When We Were Beautiful.

The Circle tour, especially the 2 nights at the O2 and hearing Wild Is The Wind for the first time in Edinburgh (as well as only the 2nd time ever hearing it's Hard Letting You Go.)

That's What The Water Made Me, I'm With You, What's Left of Me and Army of One

Slane castle show!!!

Biggest disappointments?

Richie ****ing Sambora

Only playing a by the numbers gig at Ibrox on the Because We Can tour - c'mon, I know the reasons why, but it's the last time I saw them and it was okay but it doesn't leave me with the best memories ever.
