joe rocked at the PR show with Journey!!!
But then again, it was the last night of the tour so maybe he was going for it more than usual.

Everyones entitled to their opinion. Obviously a bootleg recording I guess is easier to judge the quality of a live act than actually being there, as you get the abience of the crowd and the fact that my hearing obviously went a bit. But I guarantee you they, including Joe, were on fire, stage-prescence-wise.

Then again watching their Live8 set was quite difficult as they were quite lackluster there.

Ok, I can only base this on a record from video of recent Leppard shows, but Joe Elliot has nowhere near the stage pressence of JBJ. Vocal-wise they both struggle, and Joe does still hit the high notes better than Jon, but as far as stage movements, crowd interaction, and overall stage pressence, Jon totally owns Joe from what I've seen.
Now, I'm a Leppard fan, and I was supposed to see them this summer but couldn't at the last minute. Now, I'll def see them next time they come around, and see if I'm totally riht.

I heard Leppard wasnt great in 04!

But since then they've got better,I've heard nothing but postive reviews/fedback from fans who went to concerts in 2005/2006/2007.

Look at clips on youtube from the ROA/Yeah/ Downstage Thrust Tour and Joe does interact with the fans,Never stood still like Jon(And the rest of Bon Jovi)

Much as many of you don't like it, Jovi have consistently moved away from being big haired 80's rockers (not always in a direction we would like, but hey-ho. change ain't nothin' but change) and to me, def leppard are like dinosaurs refusing to die. The last album I listened to was X, which had one really good song (and the rest were mediocre). Maybe I've missed something on their more recent albums, but just like Bryan Adams too, I'm not interested in the same old, same old anymore.

I'll stick with Jovi, country songs and all.

Here's a Leppard record from this year:

Here's a Jovi record from this year:

There doesn't seem to be that marked a difference between Jon and Joe right there, stage wise.

And again, I wear a Def Leppard leather jacket everyday, I'm not putting them or Joe down in anyway.
