Grand Forks, ND - Media Review Quotes

By Wade Rupard

The opening song said it all.

As Def Leppard kicked off their show Friday night with "Rock! Rock! (Till You Drop)," they wanted to do just as the title suggests.

"Are you ready rock?" Joe Elliott screamed into the mic, with the crowd responding by screaming back.

The five-person band made up of Joe Elliott (vocals), Vivian Campbell (guitar), Phil Collen (guitar), Rick "Sav" Savage (bass) and Rick Allen (drums) played through a 17-song set full of their rock hits in front of the thousands that packed into the Alerus Center.

"Animal" and "Let It Go" followed the opening number, which got the show off to a raucous start and the crowd on their feet immediately.

That energy continued throughout the band's set, which included the band's only No. 1 single "Love Bites," "Bringin' On The Heartbreak" and "Rocket."
