Stage Set For DEF LEPPARD/BON JOVI Reunion In Denmark (Video/Photos)
Def Leppard/Bon Jovi 1988
Def Leppard will play as special guests to Bon Jovi tomorrow night in Sonderborg, Denmark and pre show local media coverage is available.
Bon Jovi announced the UK and European dates for their ongoing 'This House Is Not For Sale' tour in October 2018.
Def Leppard were revealed as the special guests at three of these shows in Sonderborg, Denmark and Dusseldorf/Munich in Germany.
Local media have shared many photos and video clips of the stage being built at the venue known as the Slagmarken (The Battlefield).
25,000 of the 35,000 tickets that went on sale have been sold with half of these gone on the first day.
View various social media photos/videos below and links to a Facebook live video by Sonderborg NYT news where a Bon Jovi crew member gives them a tour of the stage.
The site is being used for the first time to host concerts.
Hopefully the sewage works next door (shown in one photo below) don't have too much of an effect on things!.
Jon Bon Jovi has appeared onstage with Def Leppard twice before in 1988 and with Richie Sambora in 1992.
Both Joe and Rick appeared on stage with Bon Jovi during the 1988 New Jersey tour in Dublin and London. Rick's appearance also featured Brian May, Elton John and Lita Ford. Joe later performed with Jon and his solo band in Las Vegas during the March 2013 VIVIA! Hysteria residency at a private show.
Both bands also played the San Remo Festival in February 1988. Where the above photo of Sav and Jon Bon Jovi dates from. And at Live 8 in Philadelphia in July 2005.
Bon Jovi were on the bill at the two Monsters Of Rock shows in Nuremberg and Mannheim, Germany in August 1986 during Rick Allen's comeback tour when Joe first met Jon Bon Jovi.
Def Leppard will follow up this show with their third headline appearance at the Download Festival on 14th June.
Follow the Live Updates tomorrow night from 5pm UK time with DL due on at 6pm (7pm local time).
