Screenshot
Def Leppard played another show with Journey on the 2018 North American tour last night in Salt Lake City, UT with 16 songs performed.
The show took place at the 18,300 capacity Vivint Smart Home Arena.
The band last played Salt Lake City on 19th June 2017 on the Summer Tour 2017.
The 19th show the band have played in Salt Lake City (or West Valley City) and the second time at this venue.
The first visit to Salt Lake City took place in October 1981 with Blackfoot at the Salt Palace during the High 'n' Dry tour.
They returned to that venue in August 1983 on the Pyromania tour for their first headline show in SLC.
It was played three times in December 1987 (x1) and October 1988 (x2) for In the Round shows on the Hysteria tour.
A fourth In the Round show followed on the Adrenalize tour in September 1992 at Delta Center.
After a seven year gap they played at the Jon M. Huntsman Center in December 1999 headlining a radio sponsored show with Train, Shaggy and Jessica Simpson opening.
A second Euphoria tour show took place in September 2000 at the Utah State Fair followed by the last indoor show at The E Center in December 2002 on the X/Ten tour.
A run of shows at USANA Amphitheatre began in August 2006 on the YEAH! tour.
Further visits took place in 2007, 2009, 2011, 2012, 2014, 2015, 2016 and again in 2017.
The 2009 show is where much of the 2011 Mirrorball live album was recorded.
The 20th June 2012 show here was the opening night of the second Rock Of Ages tour with Poison and Lita Ford.
The Vivint Smart Home Arena was used before that show for full production rehearsals when it was known as the EnergySolutions Arena. It was first played in 1992 when it was called Delta Center.
Bon Jovi bassist Hugh McDonald attended this show and was pictured backstage with Vivian's dog Stu.
