If you happen to be a fan of Def Leppard, REO Speedwagon and Tesla, you’re going to be in for a treat as all three bands will be embarking on a 2016 summer tour together. Headliners Def Leppard made the announcement via social media and the group’s official website.
“The news comes just a few days after Def Leppard announced a round of rescheduled dates making up for shows they’d had to postpone due to throat problems being suffered by singer Joe Elliott,” reported UltimateClassicRock.
The extensive North American Tour is scheduled to kick off on May 1, 2016 the Moonstone Festival in Orlando, Florida. Def Leppard has also toured with Styx in the past they are scheduled to make a couple of appearances during the summer tour.
Def Leppard’s most recent hits include “Let’s Go” and “Dangerous,” both of which appeared on its self-titled album released in 2015. Meanwhile, REO Speedwagon has sold over 40 million albums over the years and has been performing for close to 50 years.
