Def Leppard In Ireland - 2011

honru · 01-03-2011 12:25am

I like Def Leppard but seeing them again so soon in The O2... isn't as exciting as when their last gig there was announced. Now I am very interested in seeing Alice Cooper, so I will probably go for that.

And the new Thin Lizzy lineup and recent gigs appear to be well received, even though it seems wrong to me to see them performing.

magnumlady · 01-03-2011 12:17pm

I would love to see them live. Why did they pick the same date as the Junior cert though

PTH2009 · 01-03-2011 12:48pm

Would somebody not going to the gig and are o2 customers please send me a o2 pre sale code for this gig.

JP Liz V1 · 02-03-2011 3:45pm

PTH2009 · 02-03-2011 4:26pm

I got a ticket this morning in the pre sale.

Maybe pre sale is sold out??

Got my tickets this morning, this will be a Killer night (no pun intended

)

Leppard - always a brilliant live show. Hits, hits and more hits with a few surprises always thrown in.

Alice Cooper - saw him twice in the Olympia and Vicar Street and he is amazing live. He has one of the strongest voices you'll ever hear live.

Thin Lizzy - Well, buy two get one free. Strong line-up and glowing reports from their current tour.

Cannot wait to see this gig! May have to include Belfast as well and make a proper Mid-Week holiday out of it!

I was going to buy tkts in the presale but the seats available were crap, so I waited until this morning and got good seats in block C. Lizzy were great in the Olympia and as said Leppard are a class act live. I have never seen Alice Cooper live so something else to look forward to. I'm getting to old to stand at these gigs.

PTH2009 · 04-03-2011 11:17pm

Got Stuck with Block F row 27 but it will be some gig. Rush in May and Then in the space of a week Def Leppard/ALice Cooper/Thin Lizzy and Then Journey/Forgenier.

The Waterford to Dublin bus will be a familer site to me for the next few months lol

Time to get this topic going again.

I know already that this gig will not live up to Rush's gig but still i love Leppard and Lizzy and Alice Copper is growing on me it still should be a good gig.

A bit pissed off that i got block f tickets (so i think my view of the stage will be obstructed a bit ive been in Blocks C/D/E the last few concerts ive been too).

So id imagine the Timetable will go as follows

7.05pm-7.45- Thin lizzy
8.05-9.05- Alice Cooper (Could be longer if he has a big stage set up)
9.30-10.50- Def Leppard

CiaranK · 15-05-2011 4:24pm

These were the setlists from the last Def Leppard gig here with Tesla/Journey/Whitesnake. The setlists will probably be a similar length. Alice will possibly play more than 16 songs because Whitesnake had a 10 minute guitar duel in the middle and I can't see Alice doing that. And there is no 4th band where as the last time they had Tesla on the bill. Can't wait for it!

Viv said on his Facebook page he's on a break now but is meeting up with the rest of Leppard for rehearsals in Dublin before the tour kicks off in Belfast.
Any ideas where these rehearsals will be??

A wild guess but it could be the Olympia.

allanb49 · 01-06-2011 1:24pm

Ok we have to make sure Alice does not go near charlies or abrakebra before the gig here

PTH2009 · 01-06-2011 2:23pm

allanb49 · 01-06-2011 2:32pm

the_doctor199 · 01-06-2011 3:15pm

Times for Belfast below, I assume Dublin will be similar.

1800 Doors Open
1900 Thin Lizzy
2030 Alice Cooper
2200 Def Leppard
2330 Event End

PTH2009 · 01-06-2011 3:58pm

intresting they all have longer sets than i thought

KevLeppard · 02-06-2011 3:41pm

Less than a week left!!

Getting very close now! Can't wait. The new live album, Mirrorball, with 3 new studio tracks is out on Tuesday. It has a 50 minute DVD with it too.

CiaranK · 04-06-2011 6:18pm

I'd say aswell, it'll be nearer to 12 than 11:30 when it's over. I think it was 11:50 the last time, or there about.

CiaranK · 06-06-2011 6:48pm

Is anybody going to Belfast tomorrow? We'll have a better idea of how long they play.

I was wondering today will Lizzy come out with Def Leppard and do Don't Believe A Word? Lepps covered it on Yeah a few years ago. Would be cool.

G-Money · 06-06-2011 9:38pm

Very tempted to pop along to this...

Was at the Belfast show, these times are just about bang on. Def Leppard were on great form, really slick performance. Alice put on a great show, thought Lizzy were just ok.
