Location: Dublin | Thanks for the tips 're Journey lads. You were right - they were excellent. The singer is very likeable as he is such a young, happy, energetic kid rocking out with 4 old men. He certainly has a great voice too.
Tesla were excellent also. Didn't know much of their stuff as I just hadn't checked them out before. Really tight with some great tunes.
Whitesnake started very well, then died in the middle when Coverdale let the guitarists have a 5-10 minute ego trip but then recovered brilliantly to raise the roof with some of the old anthems. Dave's voice is still just about there but he does struggle with the high notes. Maybe he lets the guitarists wank around to allow him to rest his voice for a while.
Leppard were very disappointing for me - I got bored and for the first time ever left before the set was finished. Elliot's voice was better than it was the last time I saw them (Graspop '08) but the whole set just seemed very flat. |
