Def Leppard 2017 Tour Chicago, IL (Show Report)

Def Leppard played another show on the 2017 North American Tour last night in Chicago, IL with 17 songs performed.

The show took place at the 28,000 capacity Hollywood Casino Amphitheatre.

The band last played Chicago on 2nd July 2016 on the Summer Tour 2016.

The 25th show the band have played in this city (or Chicago/Rosemont).

The first visit here took place in June 1980 at Rosemont Horizon as support to Ted Nugent on their very first US tour.

A further two shows were played in July 1980 at Aragon Ballroom with Scorpions.

The first arena show took place in April 1983 as support to Billy Squier.

A run of five In The Round shows followed in 1987 (x1), 1988 (x2) and 1992 (x2) at Rosemont Horizon during the Hysteria and Adrenalize tours.

The Adrenalize tour also saw the first show at this venue in August 1993.

Last night's show was the tenth time playing at Tinley Park under the third different name.

17 songs were played at last night's show with all three new album songs staying in the set.

'Man Enough' was played here for the very first time having been debuted after last summer's show.

Someone jumped up on stage at the thrust as the band took their final bows but was quickly escorted away by security.
