Orange County-Register - Online Review Quotes

"The typical heavy-metal band is about as wholesome as Freddy Krueger's nail clipping's, but Def Leppard is a metal group that even Tipper Gore could love."

"Friday night during Def Leppard's hour and 40 minute show at Irvine Meadows, there wasn't a scrap of leather, no whips or chains, no man dressed in 'ladies' clothing and nary a hint of misogyny, devil worship or other nastiness."

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