Concerts & Live Music

They were the definitive hard rock band of the ’80s. Def Leppard was easily one of the most popular rock bands of the 1980s, and they’re still cranking out hits, most recently off their 2006 album Yeah!. Their loyal fans made their 2007 tour a hit, but if you weren’t able to catch them last year, don’t worry – their 2008 world tour, featuring Styx and REO Speedwagon, kicks off on March 27th.

Def Leppard formed in 1977 as a high school cover band. The original name was properly spelled, and the original lineup included singer Joe Elliot, bassist Rick “Sav” Savage, guitarist Pete Willis, and drummer Tony Kenning. At this time, the band’s only gig was playing David Bowie and Thin Lizzy covers for friends.
