DEF LEPPARD's Satellite Of Love site has issued the following report, courtesy of ABC News:
ABC.com writer Lee Ferran mentions Def Leppard as one band on the comeback this summer.
"With the release of the 1987 album Hysteria, Def Leppard cemented themselves at the top of the glam rock game. Six hit singles including 'Animal', 'Love Bites' and 'Pour Some Sugar On Me' came out of the record.Undeterred by the 90s grunge revolution, the band staggered through the next decade and a half, releasing albums to little acclaim and attention.
The band's 2007 summer tour includes fifty performances from coast to coast, including several gigs in the northern Midwest.
No word yet on how big the band's hair will be."
As previously reported, tickets for Def Leppard's scheduled June 22nd performance on the Jimmy Kimmel Live! show are no longer available.
The show, which is being called an outdoor mini-concert, is a confirmed sell-out according to the show's website.
For fans attending the show the band will arrive at 5:30 PDT and will most likely perform a number of songs for the audience.
For TV viewers, the performance will air on the Friday, June 22nd episode starting at 12:05 AM (ET), ABC-TV (Saturday, June 23rd). Other guests appearing on the show include actor John Cusack and author Tom Ruprecht.
