Def Leppard played show 20 of the 2015 World Tour last night in Cologne, Germany with another 18 song setlist played.
The show took place at the Palladium Koln.
This was the first show in Cologne since November 2003 on the X/Ten tour.
The show was sold out and attended by 3,000 plus fans.
The crew managed to squeeze most of the band's current show production into the tiny venue. Although it holds more people then the Offenbach venue the stage barely fit into the factory like venue which actually used to be a mechincal engineering hall built back in 1899. It has been music venue since 1998.
All video screens were used although obscured by the two speaker stacks hanging down over them. Once again a smaller version of the Thrust stage was used. View the interesting building design via the photos and fan videos.
The setlist was unchanged from recent shows.
Black Star Riders played the last of their three shows supporting the band but will of course return for 10 shows in December. During their set Vivian joined them to play the Thin Lizzy song 'The Rocker'. Vivian had briefly toured with them in 2010/2011 when they were still called Thin Lizzy. They became Black Star Riders in December 2012 which they felt was more appropriate after deciding to write and record new material.
Joe Elliott - Pre-TSB Speech
"You know what this me and don't ya?. It means it's your turn to sing. Can you sing?. Cologne can you sing?!. Do you wanna join the band, for the next four minutes?. Do you wanna be in Def Leppard?. OK well as you can see, it's just you and me on this one so if you know the words, you just sing them right back OK. Are you ready?. Are you ready?! Two Steps Behind."

The next show takes place on 30th May in Esbjerg, Denmark at the Esbjerg Rock Festival.
