Def Leppard played a show on the Songs From The Sparkle Lounge tour in Islington, London, England on 6th May 2008 and a fan review was sent in by Darren.
The show took place at the Carling Academy Islington. Three other fan reviews are available from this show.
This was a special club show for only 200 fans with footage used in the 'C'mon C'mon' promo video and live songs included on the 2011 'Mirrorball (Live & More)' album.
Darren/DefDazz - Fan Review Quote
"So what exactly were they going to play now. They only do that High 'N' Dy song at the start of the set - right? Wrong! Cue an amazing version of 'Mirror Mirror (Look Into My Eyes)' - like 1981 all over again (we'll overlook the fact I was in primary school and had no idea who they were!). It's one thing to play the song (it was half expected earlier in the set) but as an encore!. Sheet!. And this was where Joe shone in my opinion. A great performance and Joe was going for and hitting every note. To be this close and watch them play this song so well - doesn't get any better."
This and other archive concert reviews can be found on the show pages in the Tour History.
