    The set lists greatly varied between concerts, so after each show its set list was posted on the official website. Most concerts began with the song "Bounce" from the album Bounce followed by "You Give Love a Bad Name". "Raise Your Hands" was almost always played as the finalé before any encores. The final concert of the tour at New Jersey's Giants Stadium. The band was known to play extremely long setlists, some of them running nearly three hours, totaling approximately 25 songs, including encores that sometimes had as much as four songs.
