What did you think of these 2 tours? It was great to see these bands again, in spite of the lineup changes and refreshing to have a choice of something other than JLo, rap, or boy bands.

I liked MetalEdge a bit more overall, but I thought Cinderella's set was the best individual showing of the 2.
 
Living in Australia I didn't get to see either but I was dying to!

What were the lineups again? Ratt headlined the Metal Edge one and Poison obviously the Hollyweird one right? Was Metal Edge Ratt, Slaughter, Warrant and Quiet Riot? And Hollyweird Poison, Faster Pussycat, Cinderella, and um.. can't remember the other one hehe.

Not fair, I'd kill to see any of those bands! ESPECIALLY Ratt, Poison and Slaughter!
 
Hollywierd was, in order of appearance:

Faster Pussycat
Winger
Cinderella
Poison

MetalEdge was, also in order of appearance:

LA Guns
Firehouse
Warrant
Ratt
Dokken

I think that for part of the MetalEdge tour Enuff Z Enuff was part of the lineup in place of Firehouse. The above list are the bands that I saw.

In both shows, the 2 best performances were the bands just before the headliners, Cinderella and Ratt, at least in my opinion. Both totally kicked ass and upstaged the headliners. It sucks you didn't get to see either of them. I'm sure you would've loved both.
 
Firehouse and LA Guns! COOL! I think the MetalEdge tour sounds much better than the Hollyweird one even though Poison would've been amazing to see... and Cinderella rule too :)

I'm guessing Dokken aren't so great now. Firehouse and Ratt would've been highlights at the MetalEdge one. I love old Warrant but they seem to suck balls now.

Did Dokken play a good set? Many of the old classics off Back For The Attack, Under Lock & Key, etc?
