Day 11. A song from your favourite band. Firstly, that isn’t going to be possible because I don’t have 1 favourite band. The band/music/song that I like on any given day is always driven by my mood at the time. However, in order to complete this music challenge I have to pick one. The first band I first saw live (over 20 years ago now) was Bon Jovi and I have seen them many times since then, in fact I’ve not missed a tour yet. Their live gigs are now more about meeting old friends rather than going for the music and although they have a special place in my music library let’s face it, when playing live they have the same big stadium shows with the huge anthem style songs year in year out.
Personally I prefer their acoustic stuff, the different versions of the older songs and some of the stuff that the vast majority of the general public didn’t really get to hear (100,000,000 fans can’t be wrong box set anyone?!)
The song I’ve chosen is an older one and it’s one I saw them play live from the 3rd row at Giants Stadium in New Jersey in July of 2001 where the atmosphere was electric. I can’t find any live footage of this song at that gig (it was played in the 1st encore) and I actually like the acoustic version better however the version I’ve chosen is similar to how it was that night in NJ. I made some really good friends on that trip and I also met my girlie soul mate; friends for life. I hate the miles that separate us although they do nothing to diminish our friendship which stronger than ever today.
