Def Leppard Brings The Now and Then to SPAC By Jim Gilbert

Most fans were thrust back in time when rock was ROCK. You couldn't fight the uncontrollable urge to bust into an air guitar solo. The girls were screaming as Joe Elliot took the stage just like it was 1988, except now those girls were in their 30s or 40s. That didn’t mean their kids weren’t screaming along side them, the crowd actually covered every age group.  There were truly three generations of rockers in the audience, and each one knew every word to such classics as "Pour Some Sugar on Me," "Rock of Ages," "Let's Get Rocked," or one of the slew of other hits the band had over the past 38 years.

Def Leppard isn't stuck on the 80s however, they are still creating new music. In 2008 they released Songs from the Sparkle Lounge, and the first single "Nine Lives" even had country music star Tim McGraw singing along side Joe Elliott. The band is scheduled to release a new album this year, and there are no signs of slowing down for the British rockers.
