Looking at the height/width of that tent I have to wonder..... will they be playing on their own stage tonight or using something furnished by the venue??

Rick78 mentioned earlier that cell service may be bad at the venue so updates might not come until after the show. The show in is the middle of nowhere thus the CIRCUS TENT Updates as they become available |

I think it's safe to say no Hysteria Album Live tonight lol but it's after midnight i'm going to assume there is no curfew..... so there really is no excuse not to play a long set.....

Seriously, Wasted as encore? Greatest hits short set list. Praying it's much longer in NY! I would be extremely happy getting Wasted as a 2nd encore.... those last 6 or 7 songs are usually very predictable so when they do add Wasted imo it's great plus i like the song and the era that it came from. I hope they play a different set list for the 2 Canadian and 2 US dates.... imo the same ole same ole set list should be a thing of the past if they want to add something fresh to their shows especially with no new music anywhere in sight. Unless they throw a few slang songs in |

Short review + one photo www.h-avis.no/puls/ekstranummer-for-fansen-1.7970240Translation: Encore for the fans Two sets of encores was necessary to saturate the hard rock fans in Skånevik. British Def Leppard was by far the biggest name on the poster artist during Sunday Skånevik Blues Festival. Lead singer and bandleader Joe Elliott did not disappoint thousands of fans who had come into the arena tent around midnight Saturday night. 80s hard rock with upgraded audio, main material taken from the band's classics "Pyromania" and "Hysteria" and ecstatic words from the audience afterwards. The concert was described as both hungry and playful of an orchestra debut with "High & Dry" in 1981. - Unique Def Leppard has a drummer with one arm - the drummer had to amputate his arm after a heavy accident. - Def Leppard have to "cheat" a little with pre-programmed drums, but at the same time it has made the band unique in that they have a drummer who uses one arm, said hard rock enthusiast Jarle Edvinsen (44) from Haugesund. Favorite Band Since 1995 Edvinsen and fellow Trond Larsen traveled around and seen their favorite band. - We have seen the most, but missing two. Def Leppard and Van Halen. Tonight we got one, says Edvinsen. The duo expected a concert in Skånevik packed with hard hits like "Pour Some Sugar On Me" and "Love Bites." - I grew up with Def Leppard, and although I do not have any relation to their last studio album, they are a band I always come back to, say Edvinsen. Mate agrees. Status - Def Leppard status in hard rock circles is unwavering. They are one of my top five bands, and has made music I really listened to. Lead singer Joe Elliott Def Leppard controls, and they get good reviews for the concerts they do nowadays, says Trond Larsen. In the arena tent got Def Leppard a welcome 80s heroes worthy. |

Great Cindy that you posted these videos. Did take some video myself. But only a minute here and there. Not easy to film in that crowd. Love that speech from Joe at the start of LGR Maybe I will post some video and photo later someday.. But a great show I think it was. Short set, no screens + +. But still a great show! |

"And then we saw the tent... and we were a little worried" lol
kinda random but: Would songs like Photograph be easier on Joe if they sped it up a bit? Maybe it's just me but I like it when they speed up certain songs gives it more energy.

The Terror Twins also known as our Bloggers Live @ the show.... I'm not sure how accurate the set list will be today if this picture is any indication. Good Times lmao Photo Credit to one half of the Terror Twins Hehe. Fantastic! It went all good And when this picture was taken I think it`s still 3 hours until show start.. You see the pink campingwagon back there? Many of similar things around the whole skaanevik. Very few Lep shirts around, but when the show started, I was surprised that the audience did know the words on the songs + + . Didnt see any fighting and things like that. Just many happy people! |

Maybe it's just me but I like it when they speed up certain songs gives it more energy. When it comes to photograph i prefer it like on the album. Reviews are pretty good aswell. But why wouldnt they? Def Leppard ALLWAYS delivers |
