No but the rest of Jovi Richie/Hugh both stood in 1 spot! Where as Sav/Phil/Viv all move around.(Theres only 5 of Def Leppard,Compared to the 500 Bon Jovi members on stage,And Def Leppard still sound - Better/Rockier/Heavy than Jovi)

And 1 clip isnt going to make a diffrence,You need to look at a variety of diffrent shows from the tours,to see that at the moment Leppard are superior to Jovi.

I'll look up as many clips as you want.
And you're glossing over my original argument:
Jon has as much if not more stage pressene then Joe.

I saw DL a week after seeing Bon Jovi last year. I hadn't actually seen the Leps for about 10 years, but they still put on a great show and Joe's voice was spot on, no dodgy notes, but in terms of showmanship, JBJ wins every time IMO.

Think they have been superior all the time. Compare "Hysteria" (DL biggest record) with "Slippery" (BJ biggest record). WHile they are both great Hysteria was a revolution production-wise and superior of Slippery. The only thing BJ were better are marketing and having a good management. That's what DL is lacking.

Agreed!

Up untill i seen clips of the Lost Highways Tour(with the band adding 500 members to it,Old songs been messed with live,Violins added everywhere)Bon Jovi was No.1 and Def Leppard was No.2.

But that has changed!

After watching clips of Def Leppard's 07 tour,They've still got it.

One other thing I'd like to add, which is probably the most important thing, is that Def Leppard still ROCK.

I think this is more down to the record company though. In the UK, it's quite clear that the record company don't give a shit about Bon Jovi.
