Denver/Englewood, CO - Media Review Quotes

By Kyle Wagner

And then it was time for the greatest rock and roll band ever. Oh, sorry, it just seemed that way, based on Def Leppard's slick, over-stylized entrance. They launched into a jamming version of "Rock! Rock! (Till You Drop)" before taking us all to Dullsville with a lackluster "Animal" and then "Nine Lives" from last year's "Songs from the Sparkle Lounge."

But then it was either having to belt out "Hysteria," "Armageddon It," and then "Photograph" and "Pour Some Sugar On Me" - the latter two of which were just plain fun - that just about did Elliott in, or it was the throng of half-naked women (hey, he is 50), but he struggled through the rest of the set to hit the hard edges the songs required.

But because the audience was belting out the tunes so loudly, no one even seemed to notice.
