Milan: We stand as one, undivided.
Well fuck it. Just when I finally got myself to write something the whole thing magically disappeared and I'm not starting all over again. I think, or maybe I will, since I don't have anything else to do anyway. I could and should go to sleep but I can't. We are now on the train between Milan and Bern and I'll try to tell you about these last few days.
I really don't know what to say about both the Madrid and Milan shows though. I mean I know it is what this blog is about but I just really don't know what to say. Both nights were so magical, and so completely different from Lisbon. I don't know why but that show just was nothing like all the others I have seen so far on this tour. The band wasn't feeling it, and that's probably why I wasn't either.
Madrid howrver was perfect, even though the set was about the most standard thing ever. It was just one of those nights where it didn't really matter. At all. We've only been in Madrid for 22 hours and the first thing we did when we got out of Lisbon (thank god) was sleep the whole afternoon. Then we went to the stadium and found a perfect spot in the back of the pit at around 20:00. The show started at 22:00 (another night's sleep ruined) and I spent the whole night dancing barefoot in a long dress. It was perfect, and I cried during Always because suddenly the thought of it all being over again by next week came up and I can't handle it. More than ever.
Anyway, after 2 hours of sleep we woke up to take the metro back to the airport and we flew to Milan, where we eventually reached te hotel at 15:00 or something and we went to sleep onvce again. Only for two hours or so but it did help. Then we went to find a place to eat (pizza) and at night we went to the Bon Jovi tribute pre-party organized by our Italian friends and it was so so cool to party with everyone and to be together. And when Phil-X made a guest appearance and played with Tommy and his band, that really made the night complete. By then everybody knew for sure that the show in San Siro would really be magical.
And what a magical night it was. I could cry even thinking about it right now. We got to the stadium late again, after a full night of six hours of sleep we went sightseeing for a bit, then had another pizza and arrived at San Siro at 7:00. I have been to the stadium once before to do a backstage tour (the football related one, not BJ) and I knew it was big, but I forgot how big it really was. Now, I have a thing for huge stadiums, so the moment we saw it I got that special feeling. And I felt pride as well, but maybe I just really need to go to sleep as I'm getting all sentimental. ;-)
Anyway we found our friends in the pit and by the time we did we only had to wait another hour before the show staryed, and the atmosphere was great, even then.
By the time the band came on stage the stadium looked like it was sold out (not sure if it actually was though) and immiiately Jon took a momebt to take it all in. I'm noy sure if at that point he was expecting something already, but he might have been. It took until Because We Can until it happened though. A choreography like the one in Udine 2 years ago, but bigger, better. And where Jon barely reacted to the one they did in Madrid he was now absolutely speechless. He got all emotional and he actually cried. In the middle of Because We Can he shook his head, stopped the song and started over again. He'd lost it, and I think all our hearts melted, it was so, so beautiful and it felt so special yo be a part of it.
After Because We Can he just stood there looking, smiling and crying. "I'm crying like a little girl." My heart at that moment, I don't think I have ever loved him more. D: Anyway, the show went on, and it got better every minute. After the choreography happened Jon got absolutely crazy, smiling, dancing, doing guitar solos and singing all the high notes.
Undivided was such a cool surprise and very fitting for the massive banner that was part of the choreography: 30 years of history starting with 1983: Bon Jovi, then a lot of other important dates in history like 9/11 and the Berlin Wall and 2013: San Siro Milan at the end. We all cried during Never Say Goodbye and we all sang This Ain't A Love Song with our arms around each other in big groups. The perfect end of a more than perfect night.
Extatic is the only word to describe last night I think, and that doesn't even capture it, at all. You should have been there, should have felt it. And I for one, am very thankful that I did.
Alright, I have to spend another hour on this train so I'm gonna try to go back to sleep and if I can't I'll just enjoy the view. Mountains! :-D
Bye bye byeee

LisBonJovi (yes I just wrote that)
My God, now I remember why we said we wouldn't ever do another show in Lisbon. All the flight stress is not exactly Lisbon's fault, but the heat is! Lol It was fine while we were still outside but once we were inside there were times when I thought I was just going to melt away, die, faint - I don't know, it wasn't good!
Add to that the fact that we were trying to figure something out because our flight apparently had been cancelled (but not anymore as we are now at the airport D:) and you'll understand what kind of a day this has been.
Bon Jovi made it a little bit better but it definitely was my least favourite show so far. Jon's mood was missing and so was ours, but it's fine! We made the best of it and we'll go back to being our normal, jumpy-like you've seen in the German papers- selves tonight. After we have slept that is because right now we've only had 1,5 hours of sleep and, thank the lord, a shower! Will try to tell more about the show later but not sure if I can since the next one is tonight. Pff I'm jetlagged. :')
Oh also: thanks everyone for your concerns, help and sweet words
xxxxx
Hello from a very tropical Lisbon! It's a million degrees out here and we're slowly melting away, but apart from that we've had a lot of fun so far.
The hotel is lovely and it was so weird to be back at Bela Vista after two years!! The place where it all ended, but it was also good. And it seemed a little less scary around there than I can remember. We got our numbers: 29 and 30 for DC so that should be ok for the front row, we'll see!!!
Now we are back at the hotel after a nive dinner at the Hard Rock Café (where they played IBTFY on the big screen) and we have to be back at the venue at 8 so that's good!
Oh by the way, the portugese version of JBJ works at the hotel reception so I might have to cancel the rest of our tour to get married to him. ;-)
Back tomorrow, if we even get back because the metro strike apparently starts tomorrow evening. -_-
Bye bye bye xxx

Blame it on the love...
Here I am again! I'm on the train to Nikita and my parents and Walja came to the station to say goodbye. Tomorrow we'll fly back to the place where it all ended two years ago - let's hope Bela Vista hasn't lost any of his magic in the meantime!
Right now I'm just sitting here, trying to realise what is going to happen. And trying to get myself to take it all in, every second of it, because when it's over I think it's going to be over for a very long time. I really don't know how I am going to deal with it, right now all I can do is not think about it.
And why should I anyway? Because it's a ll still ahead of us. 2 weeks, 6 shows, 6 countries, so many friends and a million more memories to be made.
Yes Because We Can tour, I am ready for you once more!!
<3
And before you know it it's Monday! The day before we are going on the road for twelve days, non-stop. But i'll talk about that later, first I need to go back to last weekend, if I can find the words to describe what it has been like at all. Because I still can't believe what happened during that show in Cologne. I need to keep it short because I don't have much time today but I just need to talk about it.
So in my last post we were still at the hotel, about to head back to the venue. We eventually got back at around half past eleven, because it was horrible to find a place to park at the stadium. Nobody knew exactly where we were supposed to park so we ended up driving around for about half an hour. Eventually we ended on a parking lot miles away from the stadium but at least it was cheap. Five euro's for a whole day! :-D
Back at the venue the queue had moved from the place where we camped out to somewhere on a field, in the shade, which was good. At two we picked up our tickets and we went in at around four. It all went very smoothly and relaxed and we ended up at the most perfect catwalk spot ever. Right in the middle, in front of the stage. There was only one support act (Christina Stürmer again) which was good but it also made the wait very long. We eventually ended up playing a game of Yahtzee because we were that bored, and to think about the fact that we had been queueing for 29 hours at that point didn't really make it any better. (Although we did go back to the hotel for a few hours in the morning, of course ;))
At 20:00 the show started, but it started with a big surprise. For the first time since the start of the European tour they did not start with Water but with Rocking All Over The World. (Big Amsterdam 2008 flashback!) and it did the trick. Immidiately the whole stadium was jumping, waving and singing along. After RAOTW they played Water and I have to say I really liked that it wasn't the first song for once. It's a great opener but I love that song so much that it's also a shame that it's over before I even realise they are on stage again. Nothing new after that with Bad Name and Raise Your Hands, then they skipped BTBMB (THANK YOU!!) and then it was time for the second surprise of the night, already! Radio ! They had played it the day before in Stuttgart so I didn't think they would do it again in Cologne, but they did !!!! And I loved it !
I think it was at that point that Jon said, again, that it was going to be a long night and that he had a lot of surprises in store for us. Well we've all heard him say that before and usually that means we get two or three rarities but I don't think anyone could have seen thÃs setlist coming. After Radio we got I'd Die For You again, and after a couple of 'normal' songs we reached one of the most magical parts of any setlist ever.
Last Man Standing, Keep The Faith, Amen (I love the lyrics and it was nice to hear it once but I wouldn't mind if they don't play it again), Living in Sin and Wild Is The Wind. I mean... what am I supposed to say about this? By the time they started Wild Is The Wind I had tears in my eyes, simply because I just couldn't believe what was happening. And it was so perfect, and they were having so much fun playing all these songs.
Then it was time for one of the cutest moments of the show, if not any show ever: Captain Crash. Yes! Even Captain Crash was one of the highlights because Jon had his own bag of confetti during the song, and he threw it along with everyone else at exactly the right moments. It was so cute, especially when he was like: "I'm ready!" with a big smile on his face. That guy, seriously!
What's Left Of Me was another highlight, as was Love's The Only Rule. I wasn't sure if I would get to hear that song live this tour but I sure was hoping they would play it because I love that song só só much. And I was so happy when they started the intro, and to hear the whole stadium do the "whoohoohoo" thing is just magical.
At that point I kind of though we'd had enough surprises for one night, I mean I literally didn't think I could handle any more, but the band disagreed. Jon started talking about that he wasn't sure if he could remember the next song they were going to play but that they would just try it, and when he said it was a These Days song that they hadn't played for a very long time I was in tears again. It turned out to be This Ain't A Love Song. O MY GOD! That song, so perfect. And they played it. And Jon remembered all the lyrics, and it was so beautiful. What a night !
And it still wasn't over after that. They finished with a beautiful version of Someday I'll Be Saturday Night. Even though at that point I was extremely tired and my feet hurt, I was still ready for more, but of course it was over, and it was good. It was perfect, it was everything we could have wished for and so, so much more. Even though Jon only walked on the catwalk once, I am still so glad we chose to camp out for this show, because we still had the most perfect Golden Circle spot ever.
After the show we were stuck on the parking lot for about 45 minutes, and by the time we got back to our room I had turned 22! Nikita threw me a tiny party in our hotel room and we eventually went to sleep at half past 1, in an actual bed. The comfort!
We left the hotel at twelve on Sunday and I got home at 14:30, to celebrate my birthday. It was a bit strange but it was also lovely, and I could tell many people about our adventures so that was good!! Everything about this weekend was good. Better than I expected, but then again, who could have expected this kind of setlist?
Now I have to go pack and I'm still on a mission to find confetti for all the shows. See you on the road!

Cologne on showday
It's showday which means we made it. The roadtrip to Cologne was so cool, seriously... It was too short, I was having so much fun on the autobahn. It only took 2,5 hours including a 20 minute break so I guess that means I did fine!
We got to Colgone at around 13:30 last afternoon and after spending a while at the hotel we went to the venue at 15:00 where we got number 6 and 7 for FC GC. Our lowest ever I think!! The rest of the afternoon went by quickly. We played a lot of games and only left for a good dinner at MacDonalds. :-P
In the evening we put up our tent and played more games and after heading to MacDonalds again to wash our face, this life is so classy I can't even begin to explain it :-P and we went to sleep at eleven. The night was fine. It was a bit noisy at times as new people kept arriving all night but overall I had a good sleep.
At the moment we are back at the hotel and I just had another best shower of my life. We're gonna go get breakfast somewhere soon and then we'll head back to the venue I guess. Ticket pick-up at about 14:00 and we are supposed to get in at 15:50. We'll see about that! ;-)

Germanyyy
I'm currently at work, my last day before my two weeks with Bon Jovi. It's my last leg but it kind of feels like the official kick-off of my tour and summer.
I spent my afternoon reading magazines, thinking about everything else I could have done during these five hours. Pack for our roadtrip to Cologne for example, finish that last assignment for school, or print boarding passes and hotel confirmations, but i've got two more hours to kill here instead.
I finally made my birthday banner btw! But that is about all I have done for Cologne. It's gonna be a busy night I guess. Nikita will get here at 11 tonight and we'll be on our way to Cologne in the morning. It'll be my first time on the German autobahn but i'm actually really excited. I love roadtrips and I love driving so I guess I should be alright. Will post an update when we're in Cologne tomorrow, if I'll ever get us there - that is. ;-)
Bye bye bye xx

Manchester showday: Just us, those guitars and a Saturday night
.JPG)
So here I
am, writing from my own bed again. This trip went even faster than the first
one, and real life is around the corner. Another show done, more memories made.
I’m already having tour withdrawals but everything about this trip was just
perfect. I’ll try to talk you through show day even though I’m dead tired right
now. I just need to get it off my chest and it’s a perfect excuse to think
about it some more. Not that I need an excuse for that though…
Show day in
Manchester started at a lovely five am, but it was alright. Especially after I
took a nice hot shower. I already packed my bag and decided what I was going to
wear the night before so all I had to do was dry blow my hair (I really need to
make an appointment at the hairdressers this week btw otherwise I won’t be able
to see anything at all in Cologne at all) and put some make-up on and we were
ready to go. We already figured out the day before that we could take a tram to
the station but we were impatient and took a taxi. By the time we got to the
stadium it was 6:15 or something like
that and we got our numbers. 16 and 17. Happy times!
The first
roll call was at eight and after that we went back to the hotel to have
breakfast and relax a little. Long live the fanclub! ;-) By the time we got
back around 10:30 it had gotten a lot busier and we stayed around and had a lot
of fun with friends and especially with our fellow Dutchies. The sun
was out all afternoon and it was really hot so I was glad I brought my Bon Jovi
hat. I really want to buy the red one they are selling this tour by the way, I
love that one! More than I love the t-shirts this tour. I know I’m gonna have
to buy one at some point but I really don’t know which one. Anyway, the day went by
quickly but as time passed and more people started arriving it all started to
look a bit chaotic and I started to wonder if all would be alright with the
queues.
Eventually
we ended up being part of the group that was responsible for it as we helped
out with the Golden Circle queue. They split the Diamond and Golden queues
after we picked up our tickets (beautiful tickets!) and they put us miles away
from the Diamond queue. So once again we found ourselves answering questions
and making sure everyone was in the right order and side by side and back on
time to go in at around four. Even though we swore we were never going to do it
again and this time when I say it I really do mean it. For real! This was the
last time I helped out with the FC queue. It’s too stressful for me and I
really don’t need more stress on days like that. Eventually we did alright
though.
It was
definitely a lot later than four o’clock when we finally could get in though and
we got ourselves a perfect spot right from the middle at the catwalk. We sat down
and even had an opportunity to go to the toilet and buy some food and after
that we entertained ourselves with magazines. The first support act came on at
six but I didn’t really enjoy it, the second support act was a whole lot
better. I remember thinking all the way through that the voice of the singer
sounded so familiar and that it was beautiful and eventually the guy said his
name was James Walsh and he used to be in Starsailor. Of course! I love that
band! I even got to hear Four To The Floor live, which was a nice surprise as I
didn’t expect. I mean, I didn’t even know there were going to be support acts
at all. If only I had known… I should have made a banner to request In The
Crossfire. I love that song!
Anyway by
the time James Walsh and his band were done the screens told us it was 35
minutes until show time and that was exactly the time we had to wait until the
guys came on. When the intro started I felt like crying again. That just
happens every single time because the feeling you have right before you see
them again… It’s just something so big. Again they started with Water (LOVE),
which went into Bad Name and I think it was right after that song that Jon told
us: ‘it was going to be one of those nights’ and actually I’d had that feeling
from the start as well. It was different in Munich, this was just one of those
shows of which you knew it was going to be special straight away. And it
definitely was.
They could
have skipped Born To Be My Baby, Raise Your Hands is always fun but then
something really unexpected happened. An intro started and I remember saying to
Nikita: “OMY they’re doing I’d Die For You” and she was like noooo… right? Noooo…
but the band was definitely like yessss because they did. They played I’d Die
For You. I’m sure I heard it live before although I don’t quite remember where.
It was amazing though. Then the show went on with the familiar songs but there
was a special moment during Because We Can. The crowd had been really loud all
the way through until that point but when the intro of Because We Can started
everybody seemed so happy to hear that song live, and I didn’t really expect
that. Jon noticed it as well though because after the song was finished he
started playing on his guitar and the whole crowd sang the chorus again. And
the look on JBJ’s face at that moment… just so happy. I loved that. And I also
love the little dance Nikita and I made up for it, really you should see it. ;-)
Then the next thing I just have to mention is
of course the actual highlight of the night, for me anyway. Keep The Faith with
the Robbie Williams cover. I mean, where did that come from?! Sure it was
Manchester and Manchester will always be related to Robbie and Take That but I
didn’t expect Bon Jovi to pay attention to that!!! When David started playing
the intro tune I was like hey this sounds really familiar but it wasn’t until
Jon actually started singing the first few lines that I realised what they were
doing. Let Me Entertain You. What the actual fuck! It was so so so amazing
though. The crowd loved it and so did the band. I couldn’t believe it and a
little later in the show Jon himself was also like: “You know what’s going
through my mind right now, why the fuck did we just play a Robbie Williams
song? That’s like playing Bon Jovi in New Jersey.” Or something like that, but
he also said he loved that song and Rob as well.
Then I’ll
Be There For You. Well, I’m not going to say much about it but that wasn’t fun.
Actually that was just really hard and I couldn’t enjoy it. Not without Richie.
The magic wasn’t there and I’ve said this before but that song is just Richie’s
song right now and maybe it would be better if they don’t play it as long as he
isn’t around. I felt it even stronger than during Wanted and even though I love
that song so so much, I really hope I don’t have to go through it again without
Richie. It’s wrong. And Jon must have felt it as well.
Oh gosh,
this is going to be a really long post, I’ll try to cut it down a little… Let’s
move on to SWID, an amazing version with Roadhouse Blues and Rocking All Over
The World again, I just love the energy when they play that song with Jon on the
electric guitar. Then there was Garageland. It’s one of my favourites from the
boxset and I was so happy to hear it again. I didn’t expect it at all and the
crowd went a bit dead at that point but it didn’t matter. Not for me anyway.
The show
ended with the amazing Prayer, Saturday Night, These Days and eventually
Always. Beautiful encore if you ask me. I was kind of hoping for Blood on Blood
as well though, but I’m sure I’ll hear that at some point.
All in all
I enjoyed this show even more than Munich. The band was in such a great mood, David
was dancing, Tico, Hugh and Phil were smiling, Bobby was being his usual self, the
setlist was amazing, the crowd was really loud and wild and Jon was beautiful,
happy, smily and dancy. But the better the show, the harder you crash down when
you’re back in real life. I’m feeling happy and sad at the same time right now.
the good news is that it’s not for long this time. Just 12 more days until we
are off to Cologne and “somehow I’ll survive” ;-)
Good night,
thanks for reading and see you soooon!
Love,
Anjelica ♥

Manchester: the day before
So here we are in Manchester, beautiful Manchester I should say! It's my
first time here but I love everything about this city. Even though we've been
here all day I don't quite realise it yet I think, but maybe that's just
because I'm really tired... ;-) It doesn't matter though because I know
that once again it'll all be worth it.
Anyway, I survived the flight (I really think I'm
starting to get over my fear of flying but maybe I shouldn't admit this because
that'll probably mean I'm gonna crash anytime soon) Then we got here at around
ten in the morning, took the train to our hotel (in the city centre, lovely
place) and after a quick outfit change we went shopping. The ticket machine at
the train station thought it was a good idea to give me 16£ of change in £1
coins btw so my wallet weighs a ton right now and I didn't spend a lot of it
today either. All the shops were only a five minute walk away though and the
day flew by. I did buy a few things (1D sweets because how can I resist
them? ;)) and of course we went to the supermarket to do some shopping for the
queue tomorrow. Is it really tomorrow? It still feels surreal!
Maybe that's because we haven't been to the venue yet
but we simply couldn't find the energy anymore. I just packed my bag for
tomorrow and right now I'm sitting on the floor in our roow writing this while
Nikita is taking a shower. I don't think there's much else to say so I included
some pictures. More tomorrow!
Thanks for reading, I know it was a bad update but I
need sleep lol bye xxxx

(Almost) ready for round two!
And so it
begins again!
Honestly
though, time went by sooo slowly since Munich and it feels as if that was last
century. But we’re almost there, literally. I have to admit that a part of me
had a tiny bit of hope that pictures of Richie checking in at LAX or JFK for
his flight to Europe would pop-up today, especially after a few (more) rumours, but that didn’t happen and that is ok, even though it’s not. I can’t wait to
see our guys again and I missed them so bad. It’s weird to be in a post-concert
depression when you still have so many coming up, but it’s possible,
apparently!
Today I
went shopping with Sophie and I also started packing again
because I have to work until six tomorrow and I’ll be on my way to Nikita right
after so there’s no time. Seriously, my days are too short and when I think of
all the things I still have to do for school I just want to sit in corner and
cry. But, and my teachers will love this, it all has to wait because well… Bon
Jovi! (I just realised, that is basically my whole life as a student put in one
sentence.)
Oh by the
way in the meantime I also celebrated my 10 year Bon Jovi live anniversary.
Last Monday it was exactly ten years ago since I went to my first Bon Jovi show
in Amsterdam. I did a little ten minute ceremony by watching the performance of
I Believe from that show on YouTube and reminisced a little about everything
that had happened since that day, when I still was an eleven year old in ground
school with a crazy obsession for a bunch of old rock stars. Well, I might be a journalism student now but that is one thing that hasn't changed. ;-) I also came to the
conclusion that the eleven year old me would be proud if she saw my 2013 tour
schedule.
The 21 year
old, current, me isn’t going to be very happy in the morning though, if I don’t
go to sleep right now so good night and my next post will probably be from
Manchester. (And I am ignoring the terrible flight I’ll have to go through to
get there right now so please don’t remind me!)
Love,
Anjelica
