While US dates with Heart started last week, the band has released footage from the tour’s opening night at the Odyssey Arena in Belfast.
The June 7th show, and another one in Dublin on the 8th, were warm-up gigs for Leppard’s headlining slot at the Download Festival.
Fans can check out Leppard performing its classic song, "Animal," from the rehearsals for the Belfast show.
“Mirrorball” features a mix of live Leppard classics - recorded throughout The Sparkle Lounge Tour - three brand new studio songs, and a bonus DVD that contains live performances and intimate backstage footage captured on the road.
