The very next day, tomorrow, Saturday, May 20, the band will be in HMV’s Meadowhall branch for a signing session to celebrate the release of their new album ‘Drastic Symphonies’. Ticket bundles for the signing have also sold out.

The band’s homecoming tour of Sheffield this month has proven incredibly popular. Tickets for their Steel City appearances have sold incredibly well, with only the near 32,000 capacity Bramall Lane stadium with tickets remaining.

Def Leppard formed in Sheffield in 1976 with Tapton School students Rick Savage, Tony Kenning, and Pete Doubleday. The trio originally formed a band called Atomic Mass and it was after Pete Willis and lead-vocalist Joe Elliott joined the band they became Def Leppard.

Since then, with a few comings and goings of band members, Def Leppard have become an incredibly popular and successful group. They were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 2019.
