Last week, Def Leppard confirmed rumors that they plan to hit the road this summer with 70s hard rockers turned 80s pop-cheese-mongers Heart. On Friday the band mapped out most of those tour plans."After having had the last 18 months off, Leppard are ready to get back on the road! Add Heart to the bill and it truly makes for a special evening," says singer Joe Elliott.
The band also advised on their official site that more dates are in the works: "Of course, these are not ALL dates that make up the tour! More dates will be announced along the way, so don't be upset if your area is not included -- it may very well be soon enough!"
