There are 11 days to go until Def Leppard begin their 2011 UK Tour with Motley Crue in Birmingham.

These updates will now look back at the UK tours by the band since the first major headline tour in April 1980. A tour to promote the debut album 'On Through The Night'.

The band played 21 shows starting in St. Albans and ending in Derby. All shows, except one in Glasgow, took place in England as the band had already played a six week warm up club tour in January/February where they played multiple shows in Scotland and Wales.

On 10th April the band played a sold out show at Sheffield City Hall following Joe's prediction of playing there in 1980 as the band rehearsed near Bramall Lane. Support on this tour came from Magnum and local acts.
