I love how some cities don't need a state listed, while some do. Where is Tinley Park?

Ah, Def Leppard!

The band we all love to hate. The least original rock band of all time (see this vid - Queen, Quattro and god knows who else all rolled into one) but they do it real big time. I saw them once. Awesome sound..... Cool.....

(ps. Anyone have the address of the fabulous black-haired chick at 1:21mins?)

Going to Burgettstown (Pittsburgh) July 10th.

I'm 55 years old and this will be the 3rd time I saw them. Fantastic show...........going with my daughter (her 2nd DL show)

Splurge a little and get a good ticket. If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up.
