Bon Jovi - Wanted Dead Or Alive (Live - with a mistake)

[ThanosSamborakias]

My God from his guitar change mistake and the improvised cover solo that he played then , you can understand what a great guitar player is !!!!!

[BeardyAirways]

Really liked the improvised solo, don't see why so many got this worked up about it >)

[Guireles2007]

I think I like this version even better! My Mum always said: ¨Son, it's OK to fuck up, the catch is to mend it as soon as you possibly can¨, and that's what they did.

[DANNEGREANU1]

Richie did this before, it's not a mistake, Jon is giving Richie a hard time...

[pamend02]

He injured his hand earlier that day.He couldn't switch guitars as fast as he normally does. The way he fixed his guitar - watch carefully after they pan over to him about 3:20 He thows his arms up - Says "It's not been a good day" - You can see him step on one of his effects pedal - changing the sound the guitar makes - thus *fixing* the guitar. And he IS A GOD!!!

[wutwasthatagain]

lols!! love this version! theyr having sooo much fun! but I don't understand how did he fix the guitar?....

[Kurios4Life08]

@wutwasthatagain he didn't

[inteli722]

why do you guys obsess about Bon Jovi making a mistake???? they can't be perfect! everybody makes mistakes!!!!!!!!

[spikenet2001]

Considering he broke his shoulder before that tour, he still played .... awesomely!!

I <3 Richie. He is Awesome-ness personified. An uber-god amongst Guitar gods IMO. :)

[norpollo]

[norpollo]

[BonjoviBJ]

maybe He can't change his guitar in time.

[RichiesQueen]

aww Richie... he was in pain, yet he was able to pull his solo off... amazing, Richie!!!

[danbora1994]

"One of the greatest guitar solos in the history of rock n roll and you decide to break the guitar. Let's do it again!"

Mistakes make it even more entertaining!

Well done to the band to gettin everything back in place tho! :D

[mesembe]

f you ask me he wasnt giving his guitar quick enough and with his hurt hand aswell, that didnt help, he started the solo again and it was the best ive ever heard, soo good on richie you fuckin legend

[mesembe]

the one just before the solo with ritchie

[stewart9234]

where is the vid when richie finger gets hurt

[Lisa2068]

You can do a search. It was 11/29/05 at MSG.

[taku221]

hahaha.

does Ritchie's roadie make a mistake?

but, it's OK.

funny happening.

[magyarikristof]

when will they go to centre europe???

[b2bHans]

in 2011

[magyarikristof]

could you tell me where???

[b2bHans]

not confirmed yet but Obie said Australia will be in early 2011 so I think Europe will get them in summer 2011

[RichieSlash91]

riprendono a suonare in una maniera assurdaaaaaa troppo braviiiiiiiiiiii xD IDOLIIIIIII

[BrittanyThiessen7]

Jon Bon Jovi is sexyy!! Love this song!

[JDAISBACK]

RICHIE'S PLAYING AN OVATION AGAIN!!!

[mesembe]

ive tried 2 do that chage over of guiatr and find it bloody hard and dont no how he does it soo quick

[beastofburden90]

which change might you be referring to?

[t00mm1]

no one will ever be born as good as richie sambora is...

first there is a man, then there is a god, then there is sambora

[jackHNv]

@t00mm1 There are hundreds of guitar players who are incomparably better than Ritchie Sambora.

He's an unoriginal cliche of an 80s guitarist.

[DANNEGREANU1]

I LOVEEEE THIS VERSION.

LOL

He stops the WHOLEE song lol..

[Forster3013]

i dont think it is because of his finger, its because the guy that was suppose to hand him his electric guitar but didnt do it..

[DANNEGREANU1]

Yeah it was because of his finger.....

[LittleJonBonJovi]

se questo lo chiamate errore...allore é il più bell errore che abbia mai visto!!! Io Richie lo amo nella sua quasi perfezione divinaaaaa!!!! Sanbora is a GOD!!!!!

[mesembe]

fantastic, even the best make mistakes

[metjovi]

They are great entertainers, even when they make mistakes...

[darmokandgalad]

Alright, here's the deal. I'm 19, I'm not a singer, and I don't plan on ever being a singer. I hereby volunteer to swap my vocal cords with JBJ and he can have 20 more years of a youthful voice and I'll just use his. Jon, call me baby.

[ovmovmovm]

3:52 im agree with him! "RICHIE SAMBORA IS GOD"

[b2bHans]

The failed guitar solo is very nice sound

[b2bHans]

I like the guitar sound at 3:01

[fortminor93]

ahahah...fantastic...

[TheCVway]

the most exciting and greatest mistake in the world!!!!!

[HaveANiceDay118]

haha, Jon handled that nicely

[gbalulis]

It takes HUGE nuts to stop a song like that. Mad props, Jon!

[DANNEGREANU1]

"One of the greatest guitar solos of all time and you decide to break the guitar, Let's do that one again....."

[DANNEGREANU1]

Boy but does he still switch that guitar and jam?

Damn he's so great.

BON JOVI FOREVER

[STEFANOPACINI]

almeno sono piu' umani....

[davidboy07]

it's really cool when the singer stops with singing so that the crowds could sing.

the band MANA doe it a lot.

[norpollo]

=O

hahaha its funny!

xD

haha richie is ups!

[justinappleton]

this was funny.  jon kept his cool and made a joke out of it. it wasnt richies fault it was a technical problem

[shaunlamb944]

no richie slit his thumb open so bad that he couldnt switch guitars in time, whoch show u how painful it must have been. i have slit my thumb on a string before and trust me it hurts like a bitch. resect richie for going on as i couldnt! check out the it's my life vid in msg a few days before this show and you will see the blood gushing on his guitar

[Fitzosu89]

the crowd is AWESOME

[stephaniie013]

mm richie is frikkin hot

[Skid20055]

SAMBORA IS GOD! YEAH HE IS

[whitelabel1agency]

WOW!!!!! the pick it up so Fast en Bring it back to you!! what a great artist`s!!!

[4ewerBonJovi]

the fans are very good and where is the mistake?????

[ww2luv]

he broke his guitar?

[elkylee]

it was a joke

[ww2luv]

oh okay

[eduklipps]

"Wait a minute! one of the most famous guitar solo in all of Rock and Roll you decide to break the guitar... let's do that again"

I think was that he said.

Eu acho que foi isso que ele falou

[WolfBendFrank]

Hey. He made a good improv solo. Seriously. I liked the improv as much as the real thing lol

[masrl86]

Improvisação sensacional!!!

Richie Sambora the best!

[janknudsen1979]

idiots he broke his guitar!!!!

[AggPapp]

Jon is a very good man, because Richie made two mistakes (1 at the intro and 1 at the solo), and he stoped the song and start it again from the solo, giving a second change to Richie!

Very good! Thank you for the video!

[justinappleton]

where was the mistake at the beginning

[SecretSociety1]

he didn't. What about to start reading the information next to the video ;-)

[fedarian]

where's the mistake???????? plz some one tell me plz

[14hp1]

At 3:17

[steve1471steve1471]

are you fucking stupid john??? he just stopped playing, or did you not have the speakers pluged on your pc?

[johnadorian]

i didn't see it...

[aaciseric]

Why did I get two thumbs down for saying I was sad about missing them play this song live?

[bambangpamungkas]

wow... that mistake makes it even better.... bon jovi forever....

[juampy69]

It's not a mistake its a technical problem, a prblem with the wireless conection maybe, because all of a sudden the guitar doesnt sound. Maybe the saturated channel he switched on with the pedals didnt work. but it's great the way Jon fixes it

[MrBluesmanJunior]

Wow, Richie with an Ovation in 2005. Cool!

[aaciseric]

Oh man that sucks, well at least they were on form for the rest of the songs.

[aaciseric]

At the 08 concert? Because I did leave during "Always" but I thought that was the end of the show lol, thats a shame if I did miss it but I needed a sit down and a drink after 8 hours of traveling and standing lol.

[SecretSociety1]

they played also These Days :-)

[ImBadMedicine]

SHAME ON YOU!! nobody leaves a BJ-concert before the end! and of course not during always! I didn´t leave before the end this year and had to wait 5 hours on the parking place and i didn´t complain about it!

[bonjovi317]

I made the sacred sin of drinking too much beer before the MSG show recently and i had to Pee!! i didn't know what to do!! I RAN ready to 'drop draws' as soon as i hit the bathroom! I was suprised to see so many girls in the bathroom during the show! I decided to run during Living in Sin!! NOW everytime i hear Living In Sin I think of running to use the bathroom!

I was soooo mad at myself!! LOL!

[ImBadMedicine]

cool story! "....are we living on love or are we living in sin...." what do you think of? haha sorry i think your experience is soo lol

[aaciseric]

Well i'm sorry I don't have your level of commitment but i'd travelled all the way from Birmingham to Coventry (which without a car is quite a trip) suffered a serious injury along the way (which in a few weeks I have to a minor surgery to repair) and then stood in a massive crowd for 5 or 6 hours tired, injured and incredbily thirsty. So I really don't feel bad about missing a few songs.

[ImBadMedicine]

sorry "mr. i am so poor" but i also went to a concert and stood on the parking place over 5 hours and slept 1 and a half hour before i had an exam in german and a presentation in ethik so don´t complain! i didn´t mean to argue with anybody i just liked that comment so please don´t be angry at me!

[aaciseric]

Richo Arena, Coventry, did all the other classics except this one, I was very dissapointed as it's my favourite Bon Jovi song but the rest of the night was fantastic.

[SecretSociety1]

they played it, was the last encore that night :-) Maybe you left the stadium before the end :-)

[danbora1994]

@aaciseric I was there!

Right on the barrier :D

[aaciseric]

JBJ looks really cool in this video and I especially like the way he covers for Richie's problem and turns it into something funny and lets Richie have another crack at the solo, which he nails. Wish they'd played this song when I saw them live :(

[SecretSociety1]

where they didn't play it?

[justinappleton]

i figured theyd play wanted at every concert

[563756297]

That was cool how he improvised when he started.

[guitarrockman101]

i wish i waz there

lol

[SecretSociety1]

Wish I was there too ;-)

[CrucialSix]

that's great. usually you should just carry on... but in this case, jon made the right decision - this solo is half the song. this solo is richie.

[lepally]

i dnt see whr he misses it.

[Hermits22]

at 2:50 richie was supposed to come in with his solo with the electric, which is the top neck of the double neck guitar that he's playing in the beginning.i guess a string might have broke or something, so he had to get another guitar, the white one he's playing after they stopped the song.

[footballmans01]

Richie changes his guitar for the solo everytime they play Wanted, the double neck is acoustic!!!!

[Hermits22]

ah true didnt think about that lol

[chuckroast0]

...no ? when richie went to switch out the doubleneck for his electric for the solo, somehow he pulled out the cord.

[JBJ3262]

No, richie had cut his finger on "Its my life" in Madison Square Garden, which was a few days before this, and Jon even said in an interview that Richie's Hand was hurting him so bad that he couldnt switch the guitar fast enough. Thats why at 3:17 Richie puts his hand up.

[SecretSociety1]

you're right JBJ3262 ;-) But it's easier to write "with a mistake" than "Richie cut his finger a few days ago so he wasn't able to switch the guitar fast enough" :-D And actually it's really a little mistake... But I love that! ;-)

[JBJ3262]

I guess your right that it is easier to say "with a mistake" rather than "Richie cut his finger on Its my life at Madison Square Garden so he wasn't able to switch the guitar fast enough" lol

[SecretSociety1]

I think I will copy your comment into the video details ;-) Just to make you happier :-D

[JBJ3262]

OMG i was just kidding to give ya a hard time, but hey dont let me hold ya back lol

[lepally]

@Hermits22 Thank you :)

[Rsambora5]

oh man richie is a God of guitar with a great voice!!!

man he is so under rated.

sorry for my english i'm from croatia so...

[samueloji]

it's alright. richie is the best backing singer in the world... you're right, he's so damned underrated

[Hayl59]

i know why that happened guys! i saw it on a video at new york MSG where richie hurt is hand, and a philly it was hurting so bad he couldnt take off the guitar quick enough. he caught up with it real good and solved the problem real well. LOVE U RICHIE

[BellaHart]

I agree with Jon: Richie Sambora IS GOD!!!!

I love the way Jon just stops & says '1 of the most famous guitar solos & he decides 2 break the guitar!'

nice recovery tho!!!!

BON JOVI 4EVER!!!!

[pitoboloco]

THIS WAS MANAGED PERFECTLY!!!! WAooooo BON JOVI ROCKS !!!!

[stephaniie013]

Fuck u frankothemountain

[k8lin1g00d1995]

jon and richie r awesome! they're just like brothers!

[csabistrato]

hey guys! maybe you don't care, but i have an other idea: before the solo, Richie has to change his guitar, and maybe he, or his road was not fast enough to change the guitar by the solo starts.

but it is amazing how they solved the problem, and didn't panicked.

Bon Jovi for ever!!!!!!!

[SecretSociety1]

Yeah, I love that too :-)

[njniesen]

great how they solve it!!!

richie is the king!!

[frankothemountain]

die you empty cow

[xIrishSoulx]

fuck you!

[frankothemountain]

tasteless swine

[S3ll3na]

eat ur shit

[BamaRollTide011]

this was scripted so richie could show off and have fun...if u disagree u aint no bon jovi fan.... BON JOVI 4EvA

[itseasymmkay27]

actually.. it was because he had sliced his thumb at Madison Square Garden doing windmills during "Who Says You Can't Go Home" and it was hurting him so bad he got behind on the guitar

[kingfrendo]

i'm a bon jovi fan and i completely disagree! how do u know this was scripted? did john or richie tell you?? quite a few people say this was but i cant see how people think they know.

[BamaRollTide011]

come on do u think that the king of rock richie sambora would miss his part..to tell the truth if u think bout it,in his long years of playing on tour he hasnt messed up a solo or atleast ive never seen it. it might have been cause of a thumb but u have t admit he laid down a sweet half solo for the original solo.

[kingfrendo]

no ive never seen him mess up a solo before, tho he is the king of rock he still is human. Maybe it was because of his thumb, but it wasnt scripted.
