As announced earlier today Def Leppard will be playing their VIVA Hysteria! residency in Las Vegas in March/April 2013 and playing the Hysteria album in full.
For nine shows starting on 22nd March 2013 the band will play the entire album in its original running order for the very first time.
All 12 tracks have been played live by the band dating all the way back to 1986 when Rick Allen made his comeback with six Irish warm-up dates and four Monsters Of Rock festivals.
Eight of the songs (including the seven hit singles) have remained as live staples ever since. Below is a breakdown of the first and last (known) times each song was played.
As many long time fans will know three songs will be returning to the setlist for the first time since 1988 and with Vivian as a band member.
