- The Crush Tour 2000-24bit-48hz--flac... |work| — Bon Jovi
By 2000, Bon Jovi had successfully reinvented themselves for the new millennium with the album Crush . This tour wasn't just a nostalgia run; it was a victory lap for the hit "It's My Life." The band sounds incredibly hungry and rejuvenated compared to the late 90s. The setlist is a great mix of the new pop-rock anthems and the classic 80s staples ("Livin' on a Prayer," "You Give Love a Bad Name").
What made The Crush Tour so special was the setlist. The band masterfully balanced fresh tracks from Crush —like "Say It Isn't So" and "Captain Crash & the Beauty Queen from Mars"—with immortal classics like "Livin' on a Prayer," "Wanted Dead or Alive," and "You Give Love a Bad Name." Jon Bon Jovi’s voice was arguably in peak form, Richie Sambora’s guitar work was as soulful as ever, and the rhythm section was tighter than ever.
