Okay, I'm gonna sound off.
Bryan Adams and Leppard IMO are a good match, both are catchy hook laden safe rock. I saw Leppard on the Pyromania tour years ago and they put on a good show. I saw Bryan Adams about 3-4 years ago on his stripped down tour when he was playing bass. It was an excellent show, solid musicianship. I think the small baseball field thing is actually kind of a cool idea. Both Adams and Leppard still sell quite well on the live front. My GF saw them a year ago in Vancouver and they had 9-10K people, hardly washed up. Adams although his popularity in North America has petered off somewhat, he's still a good draw and is still huge in Europe, particularily in your neck of the woods D. where he now resides.
I believe people are flocking to Crue for nostalgia sake, and the fact that many people still like them. I mean they did sell 40 million + albums people. I also think people are really tired of all the rap crap, fluff pop, tortured artisted metal, and EMO SCREAMO pop punk they have been subjected to over the last few years. People just want to see a really good ass kicking rock show. That's what Green Day's show was, I can't tell you how many people I know that went to that show and said how great it was.
You can say something sucks, but it may be brilliant to someone else. I still haven't figured out what the big deal is with Heart Throb Mob??....maybe it's the portastudio production I can't get used to.
Oh and if this is what it means to be washed up....sign me up immediately!!
Bryan Adams and Def Leppard, combined, have sold more than 100,000,000 albums worldwide. Each made their album debut in 1980 -- and 25 years later they are still hitting homeruns as each releases a new album in 2005.
Def Leppard's place in music history? Only five rock groups can claim two original albums selling 10,000,000+ copies each in the U.S.: The Beatles, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, Van Halen and Def Leppard. The British band's blockbuster "PYROMANIA" hit #2 and 10 times platinum; "HYSTERIA" soared even higher -- #1 and 13 times platinum -- led by the #1 single "LOVE BITES". The retrospective "VAULT" has sold more than 7,000,000 copies worldwide. Now "ROCK OF AGES: THE DEFINITIVE COLLECTION" (Mercury/UMe), to be released May 17, 2005, marks the band's biggest-ever "best of" album and the first two-CD set in the group's phenomenal career, featuring the newly recorded single, "NO MATTER WHAT" (originally recorded by Badfinger).
Bryan Adams is one of the world's most highly acclaimed musicians whose career has spanned more than three decades. This spring will see the release of Adams' 14th CD, "ROOM SERVICE", which debuted at No. 1 on the European Top 100 Album Chart! Adams' meteoric rise on the charts began when his album, "CUTS LIKE A KNIFE" landed in the Top 10. This was soon followed by the #1 charted album "RECKLESS". With record sales in excess of 60 million worldwide, Adams' career has taken him around the world countless times as rock fans fill arenas and festivals where ever he appears. Constantly in demand, the celebrated rocker is on the road over 150 days a year playing rock n' roll favorites ("SUMMER OF 69", "RUN TO YOU", "18 'TIL I DIE", "SOMEBODY") to sold out audiences on six continents. Holder of the record for the longest running #1 hit in the history of the British charts (16 weeks), Adams' has had 4 #1 singles as well as racked up an impressive array of Oscar and Golden Globe nominations, a Grammy Award, American Music Awards, Juno Awards (Grammy equivalent in Canada) and ASCAP Film and Television Music Awards. An accomplished photographer, Adams' current body of work will soon be seen in his new book, "CALVIN KLEIN - AMERICAN WOMEN", scheduled to debut this spring.
