I saw Def Leppard yesterday at Rockfest in Finland and they were great. Especially the singer Joe Elliott sounded amazing. Now when both bands are from the same era and at least used to represent the same genre, it will be hard not to compare those two. It will definitely be hard for Jon to take the stage after Def Leppard and Joe. And some Def Leppard fans might be amused.

I saw Def Leppard and Whitesnake in 2015.
Def Leppard sounded way too polished and synthetic. It felt more like a pop concert. I left for a beer before it ended. Then Whitesnake came on and melted my face off. I don't think Jon, even in his terrible state will worry too much about Def Leppard. |

David Coverdale as a live singer is a joke these days. One of all time's greatest rock singers has absolutely no range left, it's all just screaming. But I guess that's enough to trick untrained ears in a live setting. In fact, if I am Jon, that's who I would want to open for me. Def Leppard, I saw live last year; they are not in their peak either, but they are still very solid, and if you can stomach songs being downtuned (which Bon Jovi do as well) sound pretty close to record, Joe, while not perfect, does a far better job working around them than Jon. 'Synthetic/polished' is what their albums sound too, so not sure why that's the problem. |
Very unusual? Because it doesn't suit your taste?
Granted, Coverdale's vocals aren't great but the band were amazing and he still had a great presence. It felt like a proper hard rock show. That's what I'm into though. Obviously oily chested guitarists and live performances with no edge is your thing. |

A friend took me along to a Def Leppard concert recently and I honestly thought it was hilarious. I'm sure 50% of their sound is playback. Joe Elliot sounded awful too. Apart from a few fun 80s tracks they're a joke. |

But sure, go ahead fire up those defensive remarks about 'oily chested guitarists', that's some real edgy stuff bruh. I feel weird defending Def Leppard, because they're far from my favorite band and that show I saw didn't blow me away either, but facts are facts - they have original members (except the one deceased guitarists) and still sound respectable when playing their material live. That's not a long list of peers from that era who can do that and Whitesnake, nor Bon Jovi, do not make that cut in 2019. |
