Setlist History: Def Leppard Plays 3 Gigs in 3 Continents

Def Leppard did something on this day in 1995, no band had ever done before: they performed three full sets in three different continents in one day.

Before the gig, bassist Rick Savage and vocalist Joe Elliott were asked about the unusual venue for the 24 hours that would get them into the Guinness Book of World Records.

“We’ve played some strange gigs in our career. We’ve never played in a cave before. It will probably sound like a big empty cave,” Savage said.
