Photograph, Sugar, LGR, Let It Go.
Is LGR Viv era?
Curious if Pete Willis plays or just turns up to ceremony. Playing in such a big environment after 35 years might be hellish. Hope he is there, played huge role in band's development.

High and Dry Medley - Accoustic songs ROA Photograph/PSSOM
Thats technically more songs. But its hard to believe that they will not play there most known song PSSOM.
I hope that Pete is up for it and that he plays. But seeing that stagefright has been something he has spoken about i just can not see it.

I'll be honest had Vivian not been included i wouldn't be supporting this. Yes we're all supporters of the band but we all know Vivian is a big reason they sound so good live and at one point a huge presence on social media.

That's the biggest question of all i think.
Will they play a New Song?

I will start by mentioning Bon Jovi's induction, when they had all past members present. The ex bass player Alec John Such who left after These Days came back, and Richie Sambora who also left were there, and they all played together and it was great to see such camaraderie and obvious respect between the old and new members and such, despite past differences and inter-member issues.
Obviously everyone who has been in the band should at least be mentioned. They can't not include Pete in some capacity. Yes, he stuffed up and his alcoholism led to his being fired, but he was a founding member, and you only have to listen to interviews with Phil when he "joined" the band during the last part of the recording of Pyromania to hear him say things like "Solid rhythm guitars" and things like that. Yes, he might've lost the plot a bit, but he still contributed to the FOUNDATION of the band. Perhaps not playing on the night, but certainly there, or at least, mentioned with positiveness towards his contributions to the music, not his break down and departure. So I think song number one, perhaps something from On Through The Night or High And Dry? Maybe Heartbreak so it covers with Steve too.
Steve will obviously be mentioned, if not shown in great detail etc. on the screens in video form. Joe won't do it without saying something about their best friend, who died as a result of (sort of) the same reason Pete was fired. Steve was instrumental to the foundation of the band's sound that is still being up to 80% of today's live setlists. I'd suggest, certainly with using BOTH to also honour Pete they will play Switch 625, Steve's instrumental staple, still played at every regular live show for the last however many years.
They will most likely mention Rick's accident, well, it was a huge part of the Hysteria era and something that changed the band, for the better I might add, and perhaps reference their mighty performance at Donnington in 1986, and Rick's emotional return and his inspirational personal journey to prove that he could still do it, and smash it beyond anyone's expectations.
With regards to Phil on Guitars, perhaps playing Photograph as it is one of his signature solos and a reason the band became so huge henceforth. Sure, Stagefright is awesome, and it was this song's solo that brought him to into the band (first take too I might add!), but not to play here.
Finally, Viv. Now Viv has been in the band longer than Steve ever was, and to many younger fans, has been the only second guitarist they've ever know, or for many of us, the only one we've seen live (they did play in Australia at the end of the Pyromania tour in 1984, but they were only in Sydney at the Narara festival (where Joe famously tipped a bucket of water over himself because it was raining "If you lot are going to get wet, then so will I!" or words to that effect!) and I've never met anyone who saw them, nor is there any footage or audio available I believe?). I have a lot of respect for Viv, not only because of his continued battle with cancer, but for his first ten years or so, he was constantly compared to Steve and "we want Steve back", etc. etc. But, he has proven himself to be not so much better than Steve, because you don't compare them, but to be an integral part of the band, to the point that if he wasn't there now, the band wouldn't be there same again. So for a Viv 'era' song that might go down well, and people are (perhaps) likely to know, Dangerous. He plays the solo, it is a cracker of a song, and people can enjoy seeing him shine.
Obviously, the last song, would have to be Pour Some Sugar On Me. It is their biggest song, and the one that 'everybody' knows!
So, my list:
Wasted (Pete era) or (more likely) Bringing In The Heartbreak (Pete & Steve) (their first proper hit as such)/Switch 625 (Steve) Photograph (Phil) Dangerous (Viv) Pour Some Sugar One Me (Def Leppard)
Ok, that is technically 5 songs, but you have all eras of the band represented, and all people who have been in the band represented in these songs. Hope it ends up being a great night :-)

It would be nice to see a 3 or 4 song medley from the first two records with Pete. Nothing from Pyromania only because it was when Pete was removed. Might still be bitter. (I would, lol)
Then a 3 or 4 song medley with the current band. Hysteria and Adrenalize stuff. Then end it with a full Rock Of Ages.
But I’m with the majority, Pete should at least be asked to join the band for a song or two.

I believe the Hall picks the songs they want the band to play. So doubt much choice they will have. It would be great to have Pete join in on a song of course too.

In my opinion, these were the 4 biggest songs of their career at least in terms of launching their popularity in the US.
