They're not opening, it's a double bill. One band always goes first and Journey are happy to do so....

They are a hard act to follow....

If they aint swapping each night...then they be the opener.

Check through how ticketmaster lists the shows and then say Journey isn't being portrayed an opener...

They will be playing in the daylight as fans stream in...The Leps will be playing in the dark to a full house.

IF Journey is opening every night and IF they are only onstage for 80 minutes, that's an opening act. NOT a co-headliner. Co-headliners switch off who plays first and who plays last. From what I understand, that ain't happening.

I'm not paying good money to have an early night and see Journey play for less than 90 minutes. that's B.S. at the prices being charged.

BOTH bands are doing 80 minute sets with Leppard closing each night.

That's the best they can hope for. They might not get to the end of this tour. They are taking on water.....badly.

Does kindda suck only 80 min. Why not at least a 90 min set for both bands. Journey could of gone on at 7:45-9:15 then Leppard 9:30 to 11:00 which is curfew at most places. Why a curfew at West Palm BEach when the theater is in the middle of NO WHERE !!! Maybe only 80 minutes I m thinking Journey 8-9 :20, DL 9:40-11:00 or................Journey 7:40 ish to 9 ish, DL 9.20 to 10.40 then a encore with both bands playing 1 song from each band together ???? Schon did say he was looking foward to playing with his buddy Vivian Cambell
Just a though I doubt this will happen though

90 minuites is NO beter than 80. It would take 2 hours in some cases just to leave the damned parking lot.

Kinda sucks for people who saw a 3 hour show last year. Like nothing left to look forward to.

I saw both Journey and Def Leppard back when both bands had their LAST hits on the radio. They were all great then. Haven't had a hit since and they refuse to play anything new, or not much, so why go? If I want to see a band do cover songs, I'll go to the local bar. Drinks aren't $7.50 for a 16 ounce beer, either.
