Classic Def Leppard Concert Review Milwaukee, WI 1987

Def Leppard played a Hysteria tour show in Milwaukee, WI on 5th November 1987 and an archive concert review is available to read.

Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reviewed the show which took place at MECCA Arena.

The first show by the band in this city since June 1980.

The review is not so positive...and even slags off both Steve Clark's performance and Rick's drumming.

Milwaukee Journal Sentinel - Online Review Quotes

"Maybe, as its detractors (and even some of its proponents) argue, heavy metal's sole purpose on earth is to bash out a few monster power-guitar chords, raise a few fists, and call it a night."

"If that's the real goal, Def Leppard got the job done and then some Thursday."

"Galloping relentlessly all over the in-the-round stage they've constructed for their first tour in almost four years, the Leps certainly weren't lacking for athletic energy."

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