Def Leppard

In 2009, when Def Leppard delivered an electrifying performance at The O2 in Dublin, they were celebrating the 22nd anniversary of their iconic album 'Hysteria,' which was first released in 1987. Interestingly, 'Hysteria' marked a significant turning point for the band, featuring hits like 'Pour Some Sugar on Me' and 'Love Bites,' which solidified their place in rock history. By the time of this live recording, Def Leppard had cultivated a dedicated fanbase and showcased their evolution, successfully merging hard rock with polished melodies. The Dublin concert exemplified their enduring appeal, with fans still enthusiastic about their classic hits. Plus, it's worth noting that despite the ups and downs in their career, including the tragic loss of drummer Rick Allen's arm in an accident, the band's resilience has always shone through in their performances, making each show a celebration of their music and legacy.
