Def Leppard Concert Performance in San Diego featuring live music

Venue: Sleep Train Amphitheatre Location: Chula Vista, California, United States Date: July 6, 2014

By July 2014, Def Leppard was riding high after the release of their eponymous album, 'Def Leppard,' which came out in late 2015. However, they were busy on their 'Viva Hysteria' UK and European tour at that time, which kicked off in 2013 to celebrate the 30th anniversary of their iconic album 'Hysteria.' This performance at the Sleep Train Amphitheatre in Chula Vista, California, showcases the band's enduring appeal, as they packed crowds with their classic hits like 'Pour Some Sugar on Me' and 'Love Bites.' Notably, this concert further solidified their reputation as one of the champions of the glam metal genre, known as much for their electrifying live performances and energy as for their studio recordings. Their resilience, especially after overcoming various challenges, including drummer Rick Allen's tragic accident in the '80s, adds a remarkable layer to their live shows and makes them more than just concerts—they're celebrations of perseverance and musical legacy.
