That Troubadour performance was on a broken foot?
Holy fucking shit.
That is amazing.
Also. I think it's time I tipped my hat to Team Brazil. I really love how they've been promoting GNR lately.
They're doing a great job. Interviewing the doctor like that was a great idea.
Teasers on Star Wars. Posters and Billboards across the big American cities.
10 dollar tickets to the Troubadour alongside that cool GNR museum they set up there.
The old logos back. The full bus adverts. Sending roses to the radio stations.
Just a really really great job.

Slash McKagan wrote:"They're playing a lot of the old stuff, which is killer, and then they're playing a bit of the new stuff, too, which sounds incredibly kick-ass, too. When you’re there live in the room and feeling the energy of the room, it's just an amazing feeling."
Just thought I'd highlight the most important part
.
Is it new material or Chinese Democracy?

Great list. I'd like to add:
Excellent choice.
Also, I forgot retro active.
Fractured Love, Ring of Fire and Desert Song from that album are all classic.
Retro Active is pretty much an album made up of all the really heavy NWOBHM songs that Mutt Lange rejected from Hysteria.

Your title got cut off. I thought she just said the venue was "pretty"

Beautiful sounding soloing there.
You guys are so lucky to be there.
I'll be living vicariously through your reviews.... even if vicarious existence IS a fuckin' waste of time.
Also... It seems that tonights concert is going to be streamed:

I don't think the European media matters to an American election. Nor should it.
I can only go by what I see. I also read some US papers though, and they aren't much better. I have however seen more support there.
That there is a general slant against Trump I don't think can be argued.
You're right. I'm in Europe and I seem the same. There is a liberal bias in the European media in comparison to American media that's for sure. I don't think European media is a very good predictor of American politics however.

Slightly OT - but what should I listen to to get into Def Lep.
The only song I know of theirs is "Pour Some Sugar on Me" - which I'll confess I like when in the mood for a bit of 80s rock type stuff.
Leppard are never OT 
I got your back on this Monkey. Their catalog is too big and they have no album that covers the whole Def Leppard vibe. I made a friend a Def Leppard Mix CD a few years back and after a week he bought tickets to his first Leppard show.
Here's my patented "How to get a friend into Def Leppard" It includes the best 2 songs from each album and 3 from X because although that album has a lot of ballads it also has some of Leps heaviest stuff and 4 from the new album because it is genuinely some of their best work.
CD 1
On Through the Night:
1. Wasted
2. Rock Brigade
High N' Dry:
3. Let it Go
4. Hit N' Run
Pyromania:
5. Too Late for Love
6. Stagefright
Hysteria:
7. Women
8. Run Riot
Adrenalize:
9. White Lightning
10. Tear it Down
Slang:
11. Pearl of Euphoria
12. Turn to Dust
CD2:
Euphoria:
13. Paper Sun
14. Kings of Oblivion
X:
15. Cry
16. 4 Lettered Word
17. Scar
Yeah:
18. Rock On
19. The Golden Age of Rock N' Roll
Songs from the Sparkle Lounge:
20.Go
21. Gotta Let it Go
Def Leppard (Self-titled):
22. Battle of My Own
23. Sea of Love
34. Let's Go
35. Wings of an Angel
That list skips all their ballads and pop songs because if you want that side of Def Leppard, just turn on your local classic rock station.
And just to whet your appetite here are some modern Lepp songs with a real biting edge:
Cry from X

Go from Sparkle Lounge
I'd also suggest listtening to Phil's solo band manraze. Its got him on vox and guitar his friend on Bass and the Sex Pistols drummer on Drums.
Also Viv Vampbell the other guitarist got back with the old Dio band to record an album just before Jimmy McBains death and that is one hell of an album. It's really got that classic Dio feel.
I've enjoyed Lep's music since I was 11. That's nearly my entire life. They're woven into so many memories and events over time.
If only GnR had stuck together, or at least reformed after a few years, they'd have an amazing catalog.
One thing is for sure...time FLIES.
I bought my first Lepp CD and My first Aerosmith CD on the day I learned to drive.
