Def Leppard played show 102 of the 2015 World Tour earlier tonight in Sheffield, England with 16 songs performed.
The show took place at Sheffield Arena.
The first show in Sheffield since 13th December 2011 during the Mirrorball world tour.
The 102nd and last show of the 2015 world tour.
The 37th full or promo show in their home city of Sheffield.
The tenth time the band have played at this venue and first time since the nearby Don Valley Stadium was demolished almost 2 years ago.
They first played here for two nights In The Round in June 1992 during the Adrenalize tour.
The very first public concert they played in the city took place in the district of Mosborough at Westfield School on 18th July 1978.
The final show of 2015 and last show before they take a month long break over Christmas/New Year. The next shows will be in late January on the Hysteria cruise followed by 13 more US tour dates. Their first winter shows in the USA since 2000 on the Euphoria tour.
'Let's Go' and 'Dangerous' were played in the same 16 song setlist.
Rick used the hashtag #AyUp on his drum kit tonight. This is a Yorkshire term for saying Hello - like saying "What's Up?" or "How's it going?".
Vivian played on stage with Whitesnake for the first time since August 1988. He guested on their last song 'Still Of The Night'.
Vivian also guested with Black Star Riders in a repeat of his appearance back in May during a show in Cologne, Germany. Once again he played on the Thin Lizzy song 'The Rocker' - played for the first time on this UK/Irish tour.
View the many photos/video clips posted by fans during/after the show in the Live Blog which took place earlier.
