Journey and Def Leppard Reviews

DEF LEPPARD SOUNDED GREAT; JOURNEY A DISAPOINTMENT

I agree with the prior reviews on Journey's sound. Neal Schon had a ton of special effects pedals but no matter what he did it was just a wall of distortion. Even on the mellower Journey songs Neal used an inappropriate amount of distortion which masked the melody. Plus, he felt the need to do a major solo on every single song. It was just too much. When Def Leppard came on there was a noticeable change in the crowd's demeanor. People were up on their feet, clapping and dancing. The band was spot on and their sound was much better balanced. Joe Elliot still sounds amazingly well (although he looks terrible!). Both bands have a ton of great hits, bot only Def Leppard was able to tap into the crowds enthusiasm

JOURNEY AND DEF LEPPARD AT PRUDENTIAL

The 5 Starts go to Def Leppard, and my guys who I have seen 5 times in concert! The best show ever.....full of energy, excitement and Rock and Roll!!! Love them! Show up every time to rock the house, and give the best show ever! Joe Elliot, the best lead singer EVER! We have the best time, and so do they.....best show ever! Journey.....well, meh. A little flat, sound was awful; sound like a tribute band in a dive bar, trying to sound like Steve Perry, but not quite hitting the mark. Time for them to hang it up? Plus, too many solos to kill time? Mediocre at best.....like Lights, though.

JOUNEY / DL @ FABULOUS FORUM

DL was ok but nowhere near as fabulous as in years past-I’ve seen few times before - It was OK and could live their performance ! They were amazing in years past—- Journey was simply awful- I kept asking everyone around me was it me or something not sound right!! It was like two songs being played at the same time ! Drowning each other out -I kept waiting for the sound guys to temporarily stop the show and fix the problem - but they kept playing along like nothing was wrong - and clearly from past reviews which I did not read until today there was a major problem - I was sitting right behind the sound booth at one time (as I couldn’t take it anymore), I went up to approach them at the sound booth but will stop by security -I did ask the security person “does something not sound right to you” (as these bands were clearly not her taste in music), she replied to me I thought it was just me something is definitely off ! After a couple more songs I kissed my daughter goodbye and my wife and I made our 2 Hour drive home very very disappointed

FIRE JOURNEY’S SOUND GUY!

Saw Journey/Def Leppard last night at MSG. Def Leppard was absolutely amazing. They sounded great, great presence on stage, and played all the songs I wanted to hear. Journey on the other hand, was just plain bad! The sound was so off, the bass was so loud, that I found myself putting my fingers in my ears half the time. Thank god Def Leppard closed the show, I left very happy and almost forgot the shit show that was Journey.

DEF LEPPARD ROCKED IN TORONTO

Excellent show put on by Def Leppard on June 1st. Sounded as good as they were in 80’s. Journey put on a good show, but their music was louder than singer, also had some feedback issues. Overall it was a great combination that had Peter Frampton open.

DEF LEPPARD /JOURNEY

Def Leppard was AMAZING!!! They played all the hits that made them huge in the 80's! Journey was a big disappointment! The sound, vocals and performance sucked. Too many guitar solos that lasted way too long! They have so many great songs they could have played but instead played garbage. Three song we never even heard of! Play the hits, that's what people want to hear! I'd go see Def Leppard again in a heartbeat, Journey made me less of a fan.

DEF LEPPARD 5 STARS @ MSG

Went to see Journey and they were horrible, as similar reviewers state their sound was muffled and rough. They were like watching a cover band at a local bar, their lineup was unexciting too. DefLeppard came out and completely rocked the house, their energy and sound was inspiring and the lineup was perfect. Would def go to see DL again. journey has had its day.
