Def Leppard to 'hit the boards running' with new stage show
In a press release, Joe Elliott of Def Leppard said, "Having just completed a sensational 18-month run promoting our 'Diamond Star Halos' album, we shall hit the boards running with a brand-new stage show and set of songs that will celebrate specific parts of our history. We may even have a surprise or two up our sleeves.”
Def Leppard released their critically acclaimed 12th studio album “Diamond Star Halos” in 2022. It charted all over the world, going Top 5 in the States. They followed that with "Drastic Symphonies" in May 2023, reimaging some of their greatest hits with London’s Royal Philharmonic Orchestra at Abbey Road. The album spent 15 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Current Classical Chart.
They also embarked on a sold-out stadium tour across North America with M?tley Crüe in 2022, selling more than 1.3 million tickets. In 2023, the tour wowed audiences throughout Central and South America, the U.S., Japan, Australia and Europe, including a stop at Wembley Stadium in London.
