Def Leppard played show 68 of the 2015 World Tour last night in Los Angeles, CA with 17 songs performed.

The show took place at The Forum.

The band's first time in Los Angeles since 8th July 2014 during the Summer Tour 2014 with KISS.

The 10th visit to this city.

The 5th time the band have played this venue which was played twice in September 1983 and captured on tape.

The first visit was in April 1983 as support to Billy Squier.

'Paper Sun' returned in place of 'Promises' as the lone 'Euphoria track'.

'Let's Go' has still not been added to the setlist. Another reason for this not mentioned before could be getting new screen content together along with working out it's placement in the setlist. Or giving it more on sale time on iTunes before the live videos hit YouTube.

As you can see below every single member of the audience filmed them on Periscope (well, almost all...).

Joe Elliott - Two Steps Behind Intro

"Allo LA. Ray Davies song beautifully played - Lola. Which was recorded here I believe. But we won't go there tonight because, well, we've got our own stuff to do. You wanna join the band for like four minutes or so?. Here's your big chance to be in Def Leppard. You wanna do it?. Do you wanna do it?!. OK well if you know the words. As they say. Sing 'em. Two Steps Behind."

Joe Elliott - Pre ROA Speech

"Thank you. Thank you very much. Very cool. This place brings back a lot of memories. We played here in 1983 and a good friend of ours Brian May from Queen got up and did a song with us. Sadly he's not here tonight. So we shall do one without him. Um - there's a lot of noise going on out there which we really appreciate. Which is why we like to keep coming back here. But do you think you can make just a little bit more for this boy at the back. Stand up Rick Allen!. He's gonna introduce this one for ya."

Joe Elliott - End Of Show Speech

"Los Angeles. Thanks for coming. Thanks for having us. Thanks for being here. We'll see you next time. Goodnight."

Once again LA. Thank you. A pleasure as always. Until next time and there will be a next time!. Do us a favour yeah. Don't forget us and we won't forget you. Goodnight.
