Guitarist Neal Schon Says DEF LEPPARD/JOURNEY Tour Coming Soon

By Amy Allegretti

The Def Leppard 2018 tour with Journey is still on and will be announced soon according to their guitarist Neal Schon.

Journey guitarist Neal Schon has suggested that his band WILL be touring with Def Leppard this year in the USA.

Neal posted on Instagram last night that he would be guesting at the G3 show tonight in Oakland, CA before claiming "Journey and Def Leppard comin soon!".

Either a reference to two people from those bands on the same stage or a full tour announcement.

As mentioned last night Rick Allen had said on Friday that he did not think the tour with Journey would happen and details of the 2018 tour would be announced soon.

Previous news about Journey has only come from their bass player Ross Valory and more recently a Rolling Stone interview with Neal Schon - who didn't actually mention Def Leppard himself.

Flashback to 2011 - Vivian told a UK fan at a Thin Lizzy show that Def Leppard would 'definitely not' be headlining the Download Festival. A couple of weeks later they were announced as headliners for that same festival. Not that we shouldn't believe Rick...;)
