As about Leppard - I am not a massive fan. Never been, never will be. But hell. They would be a kick up the ass to Bon Jovi so it will never happen. It would mean a kick-ass show though as both bands would be pushing each other to do more.
Having said that, I've seen Guns N' Roses in Abu Dhabi on Thursday. And the people I was with still use the Bon Jovi gig there as an all time reference in terms of concert awesomeness. I couldn't really believe it, but they compare anyone to that gig. Slash, Guns N' Roses, Metallica...anyone. And yes, apparently, no one has ever been quite as good as Jovi. Soooo...don't throw stones at me as I am only reproducing what I thought was general opinion. Maybe we are overly critical sometimes? I'm saying all this thinking that we might think Leppard would kick Bon Jovi's ass...when in fact, they would not.

I know what you mean, I took my girlfriend to a show. She is not a fan really, and has been to see acts she loves, but she says that Bon Jovi was the best, and quite easily too. And as you of course know, my girlfriend is the barometer for how good a live band is, so there, it is settled.
It is probably that we have seen them so many time, live and via videos that we would pick apart something tiny. Bon Jovi was not the biggest touring act because us die hard's turned up, they were because loads of casual fans who think the band nails it live turned up.
