Def Leppard played a show on The World Tour on this day in 2023 in Sheffield, England with 17 songs performed.

The show took place at the 30,000 plus capacity Bramall Lane.

The first show back on The World Tour since March 2023 in Mexico/South America and the unfortunate incident for Rick Allen in Florida.

The first time at this venue.

The World Tour In Sheffield

Following the club show a few days earlier at The Leadmill the band brought The World Tour home to Sheffield.

Their first time at Bramall Lane stadium and just a two minute walk from the legendary 'Spoon Factory' rehearsal room where it all began in 1977.

Show Filming

A few cameras on cranes were spotted before the show suggesting more filming taking place.

This was then confirmed by Joe before WLAHC when he said "We're filming it tonight".

2024 Digital/DVD/Blu-Ray/CD Release (?)

Earlier this year Joe mentioned working on live audio for upcoming releases.

Mercury Studios then revealed listings for both 'Live At The Leadmill' and 'Live At Bramall Lane' concert films on their website suggesting a probable 'London To Vegas' style double release.

The Mercury Studios run GIGS TV also released a video of 'Wasted' from the show to their YouTube channel.

The full release has yet to be confirmed/announced.

Diamond Star Halos Debuts

'Take What You Want' opened the show with its debut play in the UK.

'This Guitar' was also played in the UK for the first time following the UK debuts of 'Fire It Up' and 'Kick' at The Leadmill show a few days before and was dedicated to Steve Clark.

End Speech/Ian Hunter

Joe borrowed a line from the Ian Hunter song 'All the Way From Memphis' in his end speech.

Changing 'Liverpool Docks to the Hollywood Bowl' for 'Portland Works to Bramall Lane'.
