DEF LEPPARD - Photos,Set List and Video - The Joint - Hard Rock Hotel - Las Vegas - 4/3/13




We were lucky enough to catch one of the Def Leppard shows during their recent residency at the Hard Rock Hotel in Las Vegas which started on March 22 and runs through April 13. The band billed the show as VIVA! Hysteria & MORE, due to the fact that they were playing the album Hysteria in its entirety.

The night began with the house PA playing The Who's " Won't Get Fooled Again." The curtain went up half way through the song, then Def Leppard finished playing the song much to the delight of  the roaring crowd. The first set of the show was a special treat for the die hard fans of the bands' older music. They played "Rock Brigade" and "Wasted" from their debut album On Through the Night. Singer Joe Elliott has said on several occasions that the band wouldn't play these songs since they were from a different era of the bands' line up. They also played several songs from Pyromania, including "Foolin'" and "Rock! Rock! (Till You Drop).

 After a 20 minute intermission, the band came back and played Hysteria in order and in its entirety. The song "Pour Some Sugar On Me," sent the crowed  into a frenzy. The two song encore of " Rock of Ages" and " Photograph" kept the packed crowd on their feet, singing out loud 'till the last note.
