A Hot Spot For Def Fans
Despite their 10-year hiatus from any Manhattan stage, Def Leppard's showcase concert at Irving Plaza Monday demonstrated how tight a grip these pop metallurgists still have on their fans.
Although the 90-minute concert was to celebrate the band's new record, "X," released earlier this week, the performance was a fan-appreciation event that was almost totally gleaned from the Leppard catalogue.
In fact, the quintet from Sheffield, England, only polished one song, "Now," from "X." Too bad, considering it's a pretty good disc.
