On This Day in Def Leppard History - 18th April, the following concerts and events took place. Including the 'Adrenalize' album entering the US album charts at Number 1 on this day in 1992.
The album spent its first 5 weeks at number 1 holding off Bruce Springsteen's double release 'Human Touch/Lucky Town'. The irony being that his sister Pamela had taken some of the photos of Def Leppard for the 'Adrenalize' album booklet.
The album would go on to spend 65 weeks on the chart and sell over 3 million copies in the US.
