Fargo, ND - Media Review Quotes
By John Lamb
The North Dakota State University Bison loss Saturday afternoon may have left football fans crushed, but Def Leppard made the “Heartbreak” hurt so good that night.
The British hard rock group alternated between ballads (“Bringin’ on the Heartbreak”) and anthems (“Let’s Get Rocked”) while playing to a standing crowd of 8,512 at the Fargodome.
Just as Journey packed the hits into its 90-minute set, Def Leppard slashed through its back catalog of 20-plus years.
Singer Joe Elliott emerged from the darkness to ask the waiting crowd, “You wanna get rocked?”
The answer, overwhelmingly, was yes. Just a few songs into the set, “Foolin’” had fans throwing their fists, or fists holding beers, into the air.
