Def Leppard Joined by Styx and Tesla for North American Tour

Def Leppard will be joined by Styx and Tesla for an extensive North American tour this summer.

The trio are set perform in no less than 48 cities in four months at a host of stadiums and venues throughout the United States, with one Canadian date in Toronto, as of this coming June.

Frontman Joe Elliott  said to Billboard:

“Styx is a great bunch of guys and as American as mom’s apple pie all the way through. And we had Tesla on board when we did the Hysteria tour back in ’87; they were out for at least six or seven months with us before they went off to do their own thing.  So it’ll be a great time on stage and backstage, I think.”

Tickets will be available as of 10 am on February 20th via Live Nation.
