I have a good gig where I get to work as an usher for all the big shows that come through and I’m staged in the front. I also have access to backstage (no dressing rooms). This show is next for me and I can’t wait to see Def Leppard. I saw them many years ago in the round and that show is still the show I compare all others to to this very day.

I know Joe Elliot had a partial frozen vocal cord for awhile and worked intensively with a vocal coach to restore his voice and apparently it was successful.

Def Leppard was "meh". (I only like them up until High and Dry anyway.)

I saw the Crue in 1984.

Why the fuck would I want to see them now?

Only reason I would go would be to see John 5 on guitar.

I was thinking the same thing.


I saw DL maybe 10 years ago. I had free tix to see them, Journey and someone else. I wasn't a huge DL fan, but I left the concert as a fan. It was just fun fun fun.

I had the same thing happen when I saw The Cure. I promised a friend I'd go with her if the came to town. I wasn't a fan, but left a fan. The simulcast show that they did was phenomenal.

The Cure Disintegration 30 Live Sydney Opera House 2019
Show starts at 16:30.

Why would I spoil my memories from the 80’s?
Have fun.

I went to this concert last year. Joan Jett, Def Leppard, Poison, and Crue. Their performances ranked best to worst in the order I listed them. Overall it was a good show. None of them were terrible, but ol’ Vince struggles, which they up the band volume over the vocal volume to compensate for to a degree….Crue was f’n loud.

Went to the tour last year. Joan Jett, Poison and Leppard kicked ass. They fuckin rock (Considering their age, they still get it done). Crue? Ugh. As a huge Crue fan...I was disappointed. They really have no business touring.

Well that explains the back problems.  Vince probably weighs as much as Lizzo.
