Def Leppard have teamed up with Rolling Stone to share a preview of the forthcoming documentary series, “Living With Def Leppard.”
The multi-episode series offers an intimate view of the band's stay in Las Vegas this past spring during their “VIVA! Hysteria” residency at The Joint inside The Hard Rock Hotel & Casino.
Throughout the series, the band members discuss their early days, their high-profile struggles (drummer Rick Allen losing an arm, for example) and their endless camaraderie.
The project does not have an official release date as of yet.
This month, Def Leppard will release the live DVD of the “VIVA! Hysteria” residency.
The Las Vegas shows featured two sets from the band: the first, a wild card collection of songs that changed from night to night – performed under the name “Ded Flatbird”; the second presented the band’s iconic 1987 album, “Hysteria”, from start to finish.
“VIVA! Hysteria” will be released in multiple formats: 2CD+DVD digipak, Blu-ray, DVD and digital album download.
“VIVA! Hysteria” release dates include:
Oct 09: Japan
Oct 18: Germany, Austria, Switzerland
Oct 21: UK / Rest of Europe / Oceania
Oct 22: North America
