Enjoyed Manchester - I thought the crowd seemed a bit more lively than Nottingham. Sheffield is always a weird place - audiences are notoriously hard to please here, but the Lepps do have that "home town" vibe on their side!

Wow - that was awesome. The drum coaster was amazing.

I'm now deaf in one ear and difficult to pick my fave moment as thought all 3 bands were fab

to be honest, i didn't think motley crue were very good. in particular vince's vocals. when the intro to 'wild side' started and all the flames went off etc i thought we were in for a real treat, but unfortunately they didn't back up all the effects with a strong performance. don't get me wrong, they put on a good show :)

i thought steel panther was the best band musically, but taking everything in to account (performance, showmanship, effects etc) i thought def leppard was the best overall

I felt Motley Crue are all flash and no real talent to back it up. "If we deafen and blind them with pyros, they won't notice we're not actually that good".....

i have to agree that vince neil's vocals weren't that good although i think that the arena's sound system wasn't that good as it was clearly set up for def leppard.

steel panther were awesome - shame they only had 40 minutes to showcase their talent though.

only went for panther and they were amazing,motley's show was good,well impressed with the 360 drums but the vocals sucked,enjoyed leppard even though not a fan they were for my mrs xmas box so i'm well in the good books!! panther were the best and gunna book for march in manchester !!

Manchester was HUGE! I take it Manc Arena is bigger than Notts and Shef? it was packed from the start. Brilliant atmosphere, i was glad i had a seat for that one though heheh

The sheffield gig was AMAZING! I never expected to get anywhere near the front, but i did, and i had a brilliant time. Deffo a Leppard crowd that night, and rightly so!

Sad it's all over now....................

Vince Neil needs to learn the words. It's embarrassing!

I went tot he Manchester and the Sheffield gigs.

Motley Crue went hard and fast for 1 1/2 songs then they Vince Neils voice failed horribly and they all had to have pensioner naps between each song. I wasn't too impressed.

Def Leppard are old rockers who know how to get through a long set without disappointing the crowd. They were great.

i love Steel Panter. I'm a new convert. :)

I thought Motley Crue and Steel Panther together stole the show. The energy they both put in was awesome. I loved the interaction between the band members in both bands and with the crowd. So what if Vince's voice was weak at times, there are few bands out there whose singers perform consistently for every song, they made up for it with showmanship, energy and the rest of the band supported.

Def Leppard on the other hand were disappointing. I've seen them several times, but this had to be the weakest show. They just went through the motions, didn't interact with each other, barely moved around and Vivian C just looked bored and hacked off. Rick Savage was the only one who looked like he enjoyed being there and Joe Elliott just wanted to be worshipped - what was with the continual 'Jesus arms out' pose? I also thought Joe's voice was incredibly weak and to be honest I don't think it'll last another five years.

Steel Panther and Motley Crue blew Def Leppard away. A disappointing lacklustre performance....but the crowd were all hyped up after the first two great performances that they still cheered them on.

On a final note....the guy from the audience for the roller coaster was, I think, a stooge. We saw him appear from the side of the stage, make his way into the crowd and then be picked out by Tommy Lee. I've had a look on You Tube for footage of other shows, but could only find one with a woman this time, but knowing how Health and Safety gone mad this country is, I wouldn't be surprised if these audience people are part of the crew.

All in all a superb evening. I'm not sure how Motley Crue will get on in a residential in Las Vegas next year, they're a touring band, but I'm so glad I saw them in Sheffield.

I was wondering if the folk on the Coaster were competition winners or something. I've been to 3 of these gigs and it was different people every time, but always stood around the same area.

You were at a VERY different gig to me!! I love Motley crue, and they put on a good show, but at all 3 gigs, there has been minimal crowd interaction (ESPECIALLY Sheffield !!?!) and the silences between songs was weird. And Vince needs to learn the words , seriously. He ruins one of my faves, absolutely ruins it. Saying that, i'd see them again lol.

Leppard were by far the best band on the night. They're on a completely different level.

My Son and his O/H went and really enjoyed it ...He said he'd like to see Steel Panther have their own tour .They both agreed that Motley Crue were better than Def Leppard .

They may have *enjoyed* Crue more, but they were definitely not *better*!

Joe Elliott just wanted to be worshipped - what was with the continual 'Jesus arms out' pose?

Do you think everyone who stretches their arms out is impersonating Jesus Christ? Joe's been throwing that shape on stage for the last 28 years that I know of. It's just what he does. Nothing to do with worshipping him.

He's probably the most down-to-earth frontman around !! I bumped into him in Broomhill a couple of years ago and spoke to him (having been a fan for 23-ish years) and he couldn't have been nicer :)

I was also lucky enough to meet him on Tuesday, and, same, LOVELY :D

I honestly do not recognise this as the same show I was at and I've seen several on this tour. Leppard's performance was fine and Viv certainly wasn't hacked off at all, especially not when he was laughing and mucking about with his roadie Wolfie, refusing to hand his guitar over to him.

I don't think the guy for the roller coaster was a stooge but I do think he may have been a competition winner and therefore 'placed' somewhere where he could easily reach the stage. It was a girl in Manchester and a guy called Merlin in Nottingham (which has been on youtube for several days now) - neither of whom looked like crew people.

I really enjoyed it and have seen Motley and Def Lep several times each, but have to agree that I thought Motley Crue's performance was weak, I think that they are the only rock / metal band I have ever seen live that I actually enjoy listening to their recorded music better than a live performance, mainly down to Vince Neils disappointing vocals. And I'm no prude but the amount of swearing from the Crue was cringeworthy!

I like all 3 bands and have seen all 3 before, I expected to enjoy Motley and Steel panther but not def lep as both download performances I had seen them play were vocally very poor so I was amazed that they sounded good.
Highlight for me was Motley Crue as it was just a good show.

Steel Panther FTW!

This was the best night of my life haha! Vince Neil came to the front of the platform during Girls Girls Girls and I got on some lads shoulders n got the baps out- he grinned, pointed the mic at me and my heart melted hahaha :) ahhhhh love them so much
