Ok I have to say it again. It's time Dry County reveals itself.

TONIGHT

So you went to see a band several times that you thought were just a wall of noise and poor vocals?

I smell bullshit.

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?!

Yeah I noticed that too. Even in the time span of the last year or two I feel that it's shifted quite a lot.

Sigh.

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....

Sounds like more BS to add to the pile you've already unloaded.

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:

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...

I'm not interested in looking at photos that can be faked I'm afraid.

Yeah cos I just happened to fake a photo that I posted on Facebook in 2013 that proves my point today? Ok dude. Keep living in your fantasy land! Enjoy! ;)
