REVIEW BY: Jason Brown

Def Leppard rolled into the Roanoke Civic Center (just like in the ‘80s glory days!) with a killer 2-hour show that featured almost nothing but standard Def Leppard classics.

After Ricky Warwick finished his acoustic opening set (which featured Def Lep’s Vivian Campbell for 1 song) the guys rolled out on stage and launched right into the hits plus the new songs:

Rock Rock
Bringin' On The Heartbreak
Make Love Like a Man
Now
Promises
Foolin'
Hysteria
Animal
Rocket
Armageddon It
Switch 625
Photograph
Two Steps Behind (The band teased the audience with a little "Sweet Home Alabama" to see if we were ready to help them sing!!!)
You're So Beautiful
Four Letter Word
Long, Long Way to Go
Let's Get Rocked
Pour Some Sugar On Me
Rock of Ages
Love Bites

** All in all, a killer show from a killer band that is still carrying the hard rock banner high & proud. Their new sound is a little more mellow than Pyromania, but it rocked all the same when played live... Thank God for bands like Def Leppard that are still out there playing in front of fans every night. Catch them if they roll through your town!
