On this day in 1996 the band played a club show in Edmonton, Canada during the Slang tour.

The show was part of the Molson Blind Date series where fans would win tickets and then be surprised by special guest artists at intimate venues. A small portion of the crowd didn't expect or like the surprise of seeing Def Leppard.
