Def Leppard guitarist Vivian Campbell's side band Last In Line were recently announced for the Bloodstock Open Air Festival in Walton-Upon-Trent, England.
Three solo UK dates were announced earlier today but this appearance was confirmed 3 weeks ago on 16th April and went somewhat unnoticed.
The band will headline the Sophie Lancaster stage on Saturday 10th August above five other bands. The stage is named in tribute to a music fan who was murdered in 2007.
This will be Vivian's first festival appearance in the UK since the 2011 Download festival show with Def Leppard.

Last In Line - Press Quote
"30 years after the recording of Holy Diver, and without trying to replace the singular sound that was Ronnie’s voice, the original band have started playing the songs they created together again. Joined by the passionate, powerful and unique voice of vocalist Andy Freeman, Vivian Campbell, Vinny Appice, Jimmy Bain and Claude Schnell have united under the name of their classic album, Last In Line, to perform and tour their original songs again."
"When any group of musicians write and record together, they create a sound that becomes uniquely theirs. Last In Line brings to life those early, classic Dio albums in a way that only they know how. In a way that only they can."
