The Hard Rock Hotel and Casino / The Joint announced Def Leppard's Las Vegas residency on their Facebook page this morning, but the post has since been deleted. If I remember correctly, the first show is Friday, March 22nd. They also said pre-sale tickets go on sale next Wednesday. Nothing else was mentioned in terms of other show dates, ticket prices or VIP packages. No info on Def Leppard's offical pages, but I'm assuming something will be (re-) announced soon. Vivian Campbell has already made mention to the band playing one classic Lep album front-to-back during their residency, but said fans would have to guess which one. My guess is Pyromania as 2013 will be the 30th anniversary of that album...http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919255,919255#msg-919255Thu, 20 Jun 2013 07:38:44 +1000 Phorum 5.2.16 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919255,919557#msg-919557 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919255,919557#msg-919557 Terry K.

They should do one night Hysteria, one might Pyromania. That would be really impressive.]]> jamesrock NoticeboardTue, 13 Nov 2012 19:35:16 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919255,919387#msg-919387 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919255,919387#msg-919387
but with this announcement , the odds of a new studio album they were supposedly working on is unlikely.

for my 2 cents, i much prefer to hear pyromania in full.]]> deflep7 NoticeboardTue, 13 Nov 2012 19:33:53 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919255,919383#msg-919383 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919255,919383#msg-919383 rocknut NoticeboardTue, 13 Nov 2012 18:27:05 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919255,919367#msg-919367 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919255,919367#msg-919367 RAMSAY NoticeboardTue, 13 Nov 2012 09:44:01 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919255,919362#msg-919362 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919255,919362#msg-919362
Women
Rocket
Animal
Love Bites
Pour Some Sugar On Me
Armageddon It
Gods of War
Hysteria

That's 2/3 of the album already.

And Leppard were talking about filming a live DVD on this most recent Rock of Ages tour, but no reports ever surfaced of any shows being filmed. I wonder if they are going to take the opportunity to record this residency - that would make for a much more interesting package for fans than the usual "greatest hits" set - that's for sure...]]> Ken NoticeboardTue, 13 Nov 2012 00:14:53 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919255,919303#msg-919303 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919255,919303#msg-919303 Scott Watson NoticeboardMon, 12 Nov 2012 22:32:47 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919255,919285#msg-919285 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919255,919285#msg-919285 deflep7 NoticeboardMon, 12 Nov 2012 19:02:54 +1100 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919255,919276#msg-919276 http://www.melodicrock.com/phorum52/read.php?1,919255,919276#msg-919276 Terry K.

This would be a good opportunity for them to drop a lot of the Hysteria tracks and mix it up a bit.
