JBJ Acoustic Show BAHAMAS May/23/2015

Yeah, Richie won't be missed. Nobody will even notice he's not there. Riiight.

"Uh? Who?"





"Lemme think..."







"was he the one who..."





"mmm... nope! really, no, I dunno any Richie!"





"really really nope!"





zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Thanks OldJoy for wasting an entire page along with 15 seconds of my life that I'll never get back...

So is it safe to say that the new song title is "Reunion"? Not Start A Revolution?

And if this is the direction of the new album, I'm not impressed. The fact that Jon is now including the song in his set is starting to scare me... I'm hoping that it's just the Not Running Anymore version of WAN

You're welcome, RudeKipper! Surely you're aware that this thread is about the 2 Bahamas Runaway Tours gigs? i.e. the thread where to post the May 24+25 setlists, videos, photos and comments. Have a nice day!

There are dozens and dozens of pics but very few videos and close to no word about the Q&A sessions. It clearly shows what the fans who went care for the most, doesn't it?

I apologize for the snark; but Love For Sale is one of my favorites and that was just baaad!

Thanks - I am still blown away by the women talking through these songs. If you want to chatter - listen to the album and stay home. It's so distracting for those of us who actually want to hear the music.

The only things I've been able to find out about the Q&A on Facebook groups is that Jon was "funny" and "cussed a lot." How informative. Several people have said they'll post more when they get home though. It seems most everyone is still traveling and doing quick updates.

I think the clips sound fine. I don't miss Richie's voice at all. I agree with Kathleen though--if you're going to talk through the songs, why go to a show? I don't even sing along at a show. I'm there to hear the singer sing, not myself or my neighbor.

Definitely.


The first 5 songs are played nearly continuously, then Jon will talk about heating up the place and asking Tico to do it (IML) then will play the next 5 songs in succession until Jon gets out of the stage in Phil's second solo and change for the acoustic set. At the end of Memory, he goes back to the main stage and does the last part of the main set (which includes the 32-minute continuous performance of Who Says, Sleep, and Bad Medicine). Then the encore.

--------------------------------------

I'm curious if somebody dared to ask Jon about Richie or was it a taboo topic again.

P.S. Someone should ask him about bringing back pre-Slippery songs that he can sing (like Shot Through the Heart).

There were reportedly 3,000 people there Sunday night. Someone asked Jon if he did any social media and he said he didn't. That's the only new info I've been able to find so far this morning.
