Def Leppard and Journey are embarking on a co-headlining summer tour. Comprised of stadiums and arena venues around the U.S., the 58-city run is set to kick off in Hartford, CT on May 21st and will wrap in Los Angeles, CA on October 6th. Tickets go on sale beginning Saturday, February 3rd at 10 am local time at LiveNation.com.
Also, Def Leppard’s entire catalog debuts via streaming and downloading platforms today (Fri, Jan 19th). One of the last multi-platinum selling acts to be made available on streaming and download, music fans from all corners of the globe can now enjoy tracks and albums from Def Leppard who have sold more than 100 million albums worldwide to become one of rock’s most enduring and influential bands.
“It is with a mixture of relief & euphoria that we now see our entire catalog finally getting a digital release,” states Joe Elliot. “Having embraced every other format with open arms, especially & more recently the reemergence of vinyl, we’re now going to be available to everyone everywhere and honestly, it’s as exciting as the original releases were.”
“Finally the wait is over! Our music is now available on all digital formats,” adds Rick Savage. “Very excited. Thanks for your patience and continued support.”
“We felt we’d been left out of the digital party but it’s a thrill to us to finally accept the invitation and to be able to say ‘yeah, you can stream us, download us and get us great on all of these digital outlets’.” remarks Phil Collen.
Lastly, the British rockers are performing Hysteria in its entirety for nearly a dozen cities in Ireland and the UK in December. They have enlisted special guests Cheap Trick for the trek. Pre-sale begins Tuesday, January 23rd and general on-sale begins Friday, January 26th.
