Def Leppard played a 2016 Summer Tour show last night in Sacramento, CA with 17 songs performed.
The show took place at the 18,600 capacity Toyota Amphitheatre.
The band's first time in Sacramento since 3rd July 2014 on the Summer Tour 2014 with KISS.
The 16th show the band have played in Sacramento (or Wheatland).
The first visit to Sacramento was in May 1980 at the Memorial Auditorium as support to Pat Travers.
They returned to the same venue in November 1981 with Blackfoot on the High 'n' Dry tour.
The first headline show didn't take place until November 1987 at Arco Arena. An In the Round show on the Hysteria tour with home town boys Tesla as support.
The first outdoor show in the city took place in August 1988 on the same tour with Europe as support at the California Expo Grandstand.
The same combination of shows was played on the Adrenalize tour with an In The Round show played at Arco on 25th September 1992 followed by another outdoor show in July 1993.
The California Expo Grandstand was played for the third time in August 1996 during the Slang tour and for the final time in September 200 on the Euphoria tour.
The band returned to the Arco Arena for shows in December 2002 on the X/Ten tour and again in November 2005 on the first Rock Of Ages tour.
Since August 2006 all shows have been played at Toyota Amphitheatre.
The shows in 2006, 2007, 2009, 2011 and 2014 were all played under the name Sleep Train Amphitheatre.
The setlist remained the same.
Phil played with Tesla once again on 'Save That Goodness' during their opening set and was joined by Debbi Blackwell-Cook.
Sacramento is where Tesla formed as City Kidd in 1981. They changed their name to Tesla whilst making their debut album 'Mechanical Resonance' which was released in late 1986.
