These are the performances, played on this day, by Bon Jovi for the upcoming week.

I also write reviews about these concerts, on social media. 
On Twitter, Facebook, and I am new on Instagram .

Those reviews offer interesting stories about the concerts and come with customized art work.

Meanwhile I’ll be making my way back to my yoga mat, since this site is called #dailybonjoviyoga, and I DO crave doing yoga and to one day start combining yoga with Bon Jovi, as I always intended this site to be about.

Oh, Baby; Where do we begin!
It is summer in Jovi land, which means the open air season has started. And although The Netherlands and many other countries were slow opening up their stadiums, (if you want a full story on that you can check my blog post  about this phenomenon here) May/June does have both the These Days Tour 1995 and 1996, to bring out the big guns in terms of open air concerts.

However, there are only 4 full concerts available, which means that we have a chance to split in the two 1985 Fahrenheit concerts we had to drop last week.
And I’m going to toss in a hAnD90 video:
Bon Jovi | New Jersey | The Ultimate Live Compilation | 1988-1991
Which are live performances, of all the songs from the New Jersey album, which was released in September 1988. 

So all in all it promises to be the most amazing of weeks!

Technically, it is Pentecost which means The Netherlands at least have another Holiday this weekend. 
But we are far from resting on our laurels.
It is show time. 

Touring Blueprint 27 May-2 June before 1997

Overview of all the tours running late May/early June, in the <1997 era.
This will make it easier to follow where the soundtracks belong. Not to mention that I am at the point of needing a map.

The bold printed tours are the ones where we have full-show recordings from.

1983 🐣27 May-2 June Bon Jovi was still in startup phase
1984 🏟️🇺🇸27 May-2 June
Opening for the Scorpions in America. No recordings.
1985 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿+ 🌴27 May-2 June
This first headliner tour has wrapped up, and for one month there are no official concerts. Late June they’ll be back, to tour America opening for RATT.
This week we’ll have two 1985 concerts from last week, which we didn’t use.
1986 💿🇨🇦27 May-2 June hiatus
Making album Slippery When Wet, recorded in Vancouver Canada. The city with more strip bars than churches, just so you know it was not a hiatus in FUN!
1987 🏟️🇺🇸27 May-2 June
Slippery When Wet Tour, absolutely immersed,  touring USA. However, we don’t have any recordings this week.
1988 💿🇨🇦27 May-2 June hiatus
Making album New Jersey, recorded in the same studio in Vancouver as Slippery When Wet. And this choice would lead to their, in my opinion, best album ever “New Jersey”, September 1988.
1989🏟️🇺🇸🇨🇦27 May-2 June
And, yes! The 1989 New Jersey Syndicate Tour is back from their break and touring 5 shows a week!
We’re ready when you are!
1993 🌴 27 May-2 June
Keep the Faith Tour is having 10 days off. They will return at June 3rd, in Japan.
1995 🇩🇪🇳🇱 🏟️ 27 May-2 June
These Days Tour 1995 is touring Europe. 
1996 🌴+🇪🇸🏟️26 May-2 June 
These Days Tour 1996 gets back to work and is breaking in their European tour this week, in Madrid.

So we have three tours in the United States, and both the 1995 and 1996 These Days Tours in Germany, The Netherlands (only 1 song, sorry), and Madrid.

These are the soundtracks for the upcoming week.

from the hAnD90 description box:
“It’s the first known screen recording of Bon Jovi and is very reminiscent of how far technology has come in these aspects in the last three decades.”

I think Tilburg 1985 was the first video bootleg of Bon Jovi!
But the moment you think you know bootlegs better than hAnD90 , is definitely the time to call it quits.

See you next week!
