Venue: Irvine Meadows Amphitheatre Location: Irvine, California, United States Date: September 22, 2016

In September 2016, Def Leppard delivered a thrilling performance at the Irvine Meadows Amphitheatre, celebrating their classic album 'Pyromania,' which had originally been released way back in 1983. At this point in their career, they had just finished a successful tour and were riding high on nostalgia and renewed popularity. This live recording not only showcases their enduring appeal but also highlights their signature sound, blending hard rock with catchy melodies that defined an era. Interestingly, 'Pyromania' marked a turning point for the band, propelling them into rock superstardom with hits like 'Photograph' and 'Rock of Ages.' Despite lineup changes and personal challenges, including drummer Rick Allen's recovery from a serious accident, the band’s unity and resilience are palpable in this performance, reminding fans why they remain one of rock's most beloved acts.
