Def Leppard pleases fair crowd with '80s party music
"Just listen to that," Def Leppard lead singer Joe Elliott declared after an ovation early in the band's concert Thursday at the State Fair grandstand. "That's a big noise. It really is."
Which was more surprising: the excited response of the 11,423 grandstand-goers or the sounds-as-good-as-ever performance of one of the biggest hair-metal bands of the 1980s?
