JOE ELLIOTT Hints At More DEF LEPPARD Stadium Tour Dates To Come
By Chele Drappel
Def Leppard singer Joe Elliott hosted another of his Planet Rock shows last night and commented on the 2020 Stadium Tour.
Joe hinted at more shows to come during the latest edition of The Joe Elliott Show on Planet Rock.
He was speaking after playing a track by Nikki Sixx's side project Sixx A.M..
The Stadium Tour 2020/2021
In recent weeks Joe has said more than a few times that the tour is likely to expand. This could be a third leg in 2020 or as Joe indicates more shows in 2021 which will likely include more US shows and dates in Canada.
Given Joe is talking to a UK based audience it may be he was hinting that the tour could be heading overseas from the USA.
Def Leppard's only previous stadium show in the UK was the June 1993 home coming show at Don Valley Stadium on the 'Adrenalize' tour. And again in the new stadium in September 2014 for the NFL pre-game show.
Outside of the Reading Festival and four Donington appearances (all in fields) the only other stadium shows have been non-headline.
The 1992 Freddie Mercury Tribute show at Wembley Stadium and a promo show in July 2002 at Britannia Stadium (now bet365 Stadium) in Stoke-On-Trent.

The Stadium Tour Expanding/UK Shows?
Sixx A.M.
"Very much looking forward to hanging out with my old mate Nikki Sixx when Def Leppard and Motley Crue hit the road in the summer of 2020 with Poison and Joan Jett And The Blackhearts on the ever expanding stadium tour. Who knows where it's gonna end up, watch this space. But there from the album This Is Gonna Hurt is Nikki's other band Sixx A.M. with a song called the Lies Of The Beautiful People."
