Old Review (1996): Simply Def in Calgary
These are tough times for the premiere pop-metal bands of the 1980s.
Warrant, Poison, Slaughter — and many of their brothers in hairspray — have mercifully slid into oblivion.
At least Britain's Def Leppard have survived, but the sight of all those empty Saddledome seats at last night's concert was still startling considering the band filled the joint to the rafters just eight years ago.
