    I could take them or leave them, but I saw them at don valley supported by Ugly Kid Joe and Terrorvision, great gig that.

    Also I think Rocket was the first ever 7" I bought with my own money.

    I saw them play at the Reform Club in Wombwell one Monday Night just before they went to the USA and made it big. I don't think some of them were old enough to drink. They were good but I never thought they would make it as big as they did.

    Saw Shef Leppard (tribute band) at Birdwell club a couple of month ago, brilliant, played a few old stuff off high n dry & pyromania which are decent albums.

    Def Leppard were the first band i ever saw live. Sheffield Arena in the round. Was also at that Don Valley gig and agree with a poster above about thunder stealing the show.

    Coincidentally Hysteria - Def Leppard and Back Street Symphony - Thunder were the first 2 CD's i ever bought
