On the Wild Side by ken Szymanski

"Following the decadence of Motley Crue was the
weekend's most anticipated act, Def Lepard. No hard
rock band has had more mainstream commercial success,
so everyone on the hill (from the foggy top to the
muddy bottom) was dancing and shouting choruses to all
of the songs until 1 am. The band mixed newer songs in
with the classics and gave the fans and extra-large
dose of songs form their multi-platinum smash,
'Hysteria'.

The British band showed no signs of rust, giving a
polished performance that made it hard to believe it
was the opening night of the'Euphoria' tour.

Anyone who counts Def Leppard out of today's music
scene doesn't understand the history of this band.
They have endured an unthinkable series of setbacks
but ahve always found a way to bounce back. Their new
single Promises has received heavy radio play, and
Euphoria already has gone gold.
Def Leppard and Motley Crue, combined with and early
strong performance by the Scorpions, added up to the
best night of music this reviewer has seen at Rock
Fest in seven trips."
