Variety Magazine - Online Review Quote

"Def Leppard drew a respectable response from the near-capacity house with it's own version of hard-driving but melodic rock. This group has all the requisite elements well in hand for this type of approach, including a 'long live rock' anthem or two which suggest the early potency of Foghat."

This and other archive concert reviews can be found on the show pages in the Tour History.
