2013 had: That's What The Water Made Me Because We Can What About Now (You Want To) Make A Memory Blood Money Living In Sin Cover songs in I'll Sleep When I'm Dead 2019 had: This House Is Not For Sale Whole Lot Of Leavin' We Don't Run Lay Your Hands On Me Blood On Blood These Days No cover songs in I'll Sleep When I'm Dead Everything else is the same, meaning out of 24 songs 18 were played last time the band were here. That's 75% of the same stuff. Now which list of songs do you prefer and tell me again how 2013 had a better set? :) Salaam Aleikum, Sebastiaan |
Opening Act: Def Leppard
Start time: 5PM local New Jersey: 11AM Los Angeles: 8AM GMT: 3PM London: 4PM Tapei: 11PM |

There's a Live Nation department in Milan and the show didn't take place according to official statement due to logistics. Milan would be a straight sold out. Both Springsteen & Bon Jovi share a huge fan base in Milan, especially Bruce. I was blessed to attend Springsteen's concert in Milan in 2016 and I really can't wait for the next one, hopefully next year, to come!
Also Milan got the largest show in BWC Tour. |

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. |

Seen Whitesnake several time and in my opinion Coverdale is dreadful and the band is just a wall of noise to try and cover up his poor vocals.
Saw Def Leppard last year and they were fantastic. Had seen Joe struggle a few times over the years, but he was spot on. I also think Jovi are going to struggle to follow Leppard as their current A Game is well below Def Leppard's (again in my opinion). |

Same with Skid Row - supporting in a few shows - They will blow Jovi off stage - and thats without Seb! |
For their age Def Leppard are still pretty good. But they are still a shadow of their former self. My dad saw them 10 years ago and was a bit disappointed let alone now. Not a knock on them, it would be wrong to expect them to sound the same, but they certainly aren't on the same tier as band like Metallica or Iron Maiden as a live act these days.

I'd like to see the two bands do a song together. Not sure it will happen but would be cool.

I didn't day Def Leppard sucked. I said they sounded too polished and synthetic. Also, implying that Def Leppard are better than Whitesnake because they play bigger venues would imply that Bon Jovi are currently one of the best live acts in the world because they're playing stadiums. Popularity doesn't necessarily mean quality. I feel like that's a rather obvious point to make but one you've clearly overlooked. |
Ok I have to say it again. It's time Dry County reveals itself.
TONIGHT |

For what it's worth, saw Def Lep in 2013 and thoroughly enjoyed. The sets are pretty static and it is very polished (including Phil Collens chest) but their distinctive sound is deliberately overproduced so I think it's to be expected, it's part of the charm. When you see them they sound like Def Leppard. Joe Elliott still sounds like Joe Elliott. So you feel you're getting the real McCoy if you're a fan.
Bon Jovi are a different breed. More successful but with a singer whose voice has just not held up anywhere near what it was in the 80s or 90s. Nevertheless, they continue to produce a lot more new music and fill stadiums. Maybe it boils down to Jon having whiter teeth. :confused: On another note, has anyone else noticed that where Jon used to sound bad on a chorus but ok on the verses (e.g. always), now it's the other way round?! |

I go to a lot of festivals and music events for my work (Saw Whitesnake at both Download and Ramblin' Man Fair). I was even on the UK tour they did with Def Leppard in 2008 and again in 2013 on the Whitesnake/Journey tour. I've seen them loads of times, but not paid to see them once.... |

I grew up 1 1/2 hours away from Sonderburg and whenever I go to visit my parents during the summer I try to go there for a day. The hot dogs at Annie's kiosk are pretty awesome and I've got the feeling they'd be my highlight if I had been gone there to the concert.
An old friend is at the show tonight so that I hope it won't be as terrible as we both expect it to be - for her sake (she was always a Richie fan, so I doubt she will have a great time..) |

If you're interested you can see my laminates from those tours here: https://www.facebook.com/thethincont...type=1&theater I don't mention all of that much on here as it would come across at bragging, which I'm not into, but when someone decides to call me out as a bullshitter, well..... But honestly, couldn't care less what you believe. Not sure why you have such a problem with someone having a different opinion to you... |
