 NEW YORK, NY, April 13, 2011 - Def Leppard has confirmed June 7th as
the release date for their first ever live album Mirrorball (Bludgeon
Riffola/Mailboat Records), which will be available exclusively at
Walmart & Sam's Club locations in the United States and Canada.  The
album will include a 50 minute DVD that contains live performances and
intimate backstage footage of the band captured on the road. A special
limited vinyl edition will also be made available. Mirrorball will also
be available online, marking the first time the band's music will
officially be made available for digital purchase.  Def Leppard will
also be releasing their new community based website in May, which is
being developed to be the ultimate Def Leppard fan experience and go- to
destination for all things on the band. 

Said Joe Elliott, "To be able to say at last, we have a live album out &
it be a three disc package which includes a DVD makes me very happy ...
it's the soundtrack of OUR lives...!"

Mirrorball was recorded across the world over the course of many of the
band's sold-out dates and features all of the classic songs that have
made Def Leppard one of the most respected and beloved power rock bands
in the world. The album captures the group's legendary concert
experience at its thunderous best, bringing together live versions of
classic Leppard hits such as "Pour Some Sugar on Me," "Rock of Ages,"
"Foolin'," "Hysteria," "Photograph" and an incredible rendition of
"Bringing on the Heartache."  With their creative juices at full flow,
the band has also added three new studio tracks:  "Undefeated," "It's
All About Believin'" and "Kings of the World," that are undeniably Def
Leppard. Mirrorball follows the band's 2008 studio release, Live From
the Sparkle Lounge, which debuted at #5 on the Billboard Top 200,
marking the group's highest chart position since 1992's Adrenalized.
