I'VE WANTED TO SEE DF FOR 35 YEARS . WAS WORTH THE WAIT!
I'll start my review by disclosing I'm incredibly biased.
I went to see Def Leppard, I've loved them since I was
in fourth grade. I'm 45 now, and this is been my
bucket list item for as long as I can remember. I was
hoping I hadn't waited too long, yes they're getting
up there in age. They were unreal. I sang along to
every song, and every song sounded just like the
original. They will always be my favorite band!!!! I was
a little annoyed that, although he didn't technically
open and they co-headlined, because they went first,
the crowd wasn't as warmed up as I think they could
have been. I think Journey should have gone first
because they are more mellow. I'm a huge Journey
fan, but I'm sorry. No one can replace Steve Perry. I
was missing him a lot on Saturday night.... Journey
was a bit of a let down.

DEF LEPPARD AWESOME!!!! JOURNEY NO WAY!
Def Leppard stole the show! Hands down THE best
concert I have ever been too! Cheap Trick was
amazing too. If you ask me Journey should have just
opened for DL and CT. DL spot on such an amazing
show. They interacted with the crowd and when Rick
did his drum solo he didn’t miss a beat! These guys
are just Amazing, the sound, the energy, lights,
EVERYTHING!!! Can’t say enough! Back to Journey let’s
just say very disappointing. I’ve seen a better show
on America’s Got Talent. I actually sat down and
started filing my nails before my husband came back
and we left 3 songs in. I would have gladly given my
row 22 seat on floor to someone who actually wanted
to stay to hear that mess. Again Def Leppard
absolutely MESMERIZING!! I hope DL comes back to
Minneapolis very soon with Cheap Trick. Journey can
stay behind and learn how to get their sound right
and become the band they were back in the day.

DEF LEPPARD AWESOME, JOURNEY... NOT SO MUCH
Def Leppard rocked! Journey was horrible! Left the show after 2 songs, the sound was
terrible, and the newest singer was off key! Wish the entire show was Def Leppard, they
never disappoint!
Angie Poortinga from Des Moines, Iowa
DEF LEPPARD ROCKED IT!
Def Leppard was AMAZING! Was so impressed and
wished they would have played the entire show as I
could have watched them play for hours! Great
energy and vocals, light show was fantastic and solid
all around. Journey was pretty disappointing was
pretty much the Neil Scon show and by mid concert
every song was a guitar solo to showcase him. It was
like they got together to showcase him only. The lead
singer tried but the band played over him you could
barely hear his vocals. Def Leppard definitely worth
it, Journey not so much.

DEF LEPPARD HIT IT OUT OF THE PARK!!!
We just had the pleasure of seeing the Def Leppard/Journey concert on July 19th in Lincoln, NE. I'll tell you what....Def Leppard has to be, hands down, the BEST concert I've ever been to!! They sounded like they did 30+ years ago, and the entertainment value was PRICELESS!! However, Journey was the BIGGEST disappointment EVER
:( I grew up listening to Journey and l am still a HUGE fan of Journey's music w/Steve Perry. We felt that this concert was "the Neal Schon show", not the Journey that we had grown up loving. Nothing at all against Arnel Pineda, but he is very karaoke like! I'm so sad that I left there feeling like I wasted my time sitting through the rest of the show.

DEF LEPPARD AND PRETENDERS SLAYED, JOURNEY MEH
The show at Wrigley Field 7/14/18 needed more Pretenders and less Journey.
Chrissie Hynde was badass, but the set WAY too short. No "Brass In Pocket"? Really?
Journey clearly hasn't sorted out their sound issue. And, to mirror everyone else
here, WAY too many solos that felt like ways to give the other old dudes a rest
between songs, not even remotely cool save a truly mesmerizing turn from Steve
Smith on drums. They kinda-sora re-energized the crowd for the last 3 songs (Wheel
In The Sky, Faithfully, Don't Stop Believing), but overall it felt like a tired, overwrought
karaoke show. Props to Pineda for being a good Steve Perry impersonator, but
these guys really need to hang it up.
DEF LEPPARD WAS A REVELATION: the energy, an amazing light show, all the hits, and
the crowd was INTO IT. This is what people come to a rock and roll show for.
OUTSTANDING.
Steve Parker from Louisville, Kentucky
DEF LEPPARD WAS AMAZING....JOURNEY JUST SUCKED
Never a fan of 80s "hair bands," we went expecting to tolerate Def Leppard to get to Journey (saw them 3 times in "the day)...couldn't have been more wrong.
Def Leppard was AMAZING! I didn't really know their music, but the band was pure entertainment...great sound, awesome crowd interaction, engaging...loved the way they ended the show...very cool and appropriate for the crowd and band. A class act..
Then there was Journey...WTF! They came out to Separate Ways, transitioned into another song, then another...no crowd interaction...each crapped on by long, harsh, raggedy, awkward Neal Schon guitar solos. Arnel danced all over the stage, trying to fill up the awkwardness with weird acrobatics and clunky microphone flips that went on WAAAAAAAAAAY too long. At one point, the lights hit the crowd, to illuminate several thousand "fans" standing still, just staring blankly at the sh*tshow unfolding on stage.
We left after 4 songs, when it was evident it wouldn't get any better. Very sad.
