Def Leppard with Special Guests Live - Australia Tour

Def Leppard, one of the world’s dominating powerhouses of rock have announced their 2015 Australian tour.

With over 100 million albums sold worldwide and two prestigious Diamond Awards to their name, Def Leppard have gone on to become one of the most highly praised bands in rock music. Since 1992, the band has consisted of Joe Elliott (lead vocals), Rick Savage (bass, backing vocals), Rick Allen (drums, backing vocals), Phil Collen (guitar, backing vocals), and Vivian Campbell (guitar, backing vocals).

Def Leppard’s trademark sound and groundbreaking albums, such as Pyromania and Hysteria, have earned them massive hits – songs such as Pour Some Sugar On Me, Photograph, Hysteria, Let’s Get Rocked, Animal, Rock of Ages, When Love & Hate Collide and Love Bites have all dominated the airwaves globally. These powerful melodic rock anthems, along with their spectacular live shows are what makes this super group one of the most impressive rock bands out there.

Def Leppard will be supported by special guests Live, who achieved worldwide success with their 1994 album, Throwing Copper, which spawned the huge hits Lightening Crashes, I Alone and All Over You. Rolling Stone and MTV both dubbed the album "one of the 25 Greatest Rock Albums of All-Time", while tastemakers from Spin to The New York Times lauded it with equal praise. This is the first time Australian audiences will be introduced to Live’s new front man, Chris Shinn, who joined the band in 2012.

Linkin Park, Stone Sour Announce Soundwave Sideshows

Linkin Park are without a doubt one of the biggest names in modern music; their brand of modern metal has topped charts all across the planet constantly over the past decade so it makes sense that they find themselves very close to the top of the mammoth Soundwave Festival bill for 2013.

The band have just announced that, while they’re around, they’ll put on a couple of massive sideshows to make sure that any of their fans who missed out on tickets to the sold out Soundwave shows in Sydney and Melbourne will have ample chance to witness their powerful live show.

They will be joined by modern rock powerhouse Stone Sour, the “other band” for Slipknot’s Corey Taylor, a band who are a massive drawcard in their own right.

Both of these bands have massive Australian fanbases so tickets for these shows won’t stick around long; they go on sale next Friday. Both shows are licensed all ages events.

Dates are below:

Tuesday 26 February – Sydney Entertainment Centre
Wednesday 27 February – Rod Laver Arena, Melbourne
