Def Leppard Tickets

Hailing from across the Pond, Def Leppard is one of the front-runners of the Rock-music world with a mixture of Hard Rock, Glam Rock, and Heavy Metal sounds. Def Leppard soared to popularity in the late 1970s with the New Wave of British Heavy Metal, bringing a revived sound to the music industry.

Def Leppard was one of the first bands to benefit from the newly established MTV, which constantly showcased Def Leppard's music and mounted its popularity. The diamond-classified album Pyromania was met with huge success, but it was Def Leppard’s revolutionary album Hysteria that officially established Def Leppard as one of the most innovative bands of all time.

Def Leppard drummer Rick Allen suffered a horrifying car accident in 1984, costing him his left arm, yet he persevered and helped craft what was to become a breakthrough in drum technology – a drum-kit which utilized legs as well as arms. Producer Robert John “Mutt” Lange worked with the members of Def Leppard to create a futuristic sound incorporated with Heavy Metal elements, which greatly contributed to Def Leppard’s worldwide success.

With newest album Songs From The Sparkle Lounge drawing acclaim from fans and critics, Def Leppard proves it is still one of the top bands in the world. The 2008 tour with REO Speedwagon lit the road on fire, but Def Leppard is looking to up the ante with a 2009 tour, adding Poison and Cheap Trick on the same ticket.
