Def Leppard will perform their iconic ‘Hysteria’ from start to finish on their upcoming Australian tour. They last did a complete performance of the entire album for fans in Spain in 2013.

Every song from ‘Hysteria’ has been played live at some time by Def Leppard but some of the songs are rare. For instance, ‘Love and Affection’ and ‘Run Riot’ have only been played live 28 times in 30 years. ‘Excitable’ was only played for the first time in 2000, 13 years after the release of the album.

Some of the songs have become an essential part of a Def Leppard setlist. ‘Pour Some Sugar On me’ is the most played ‘Hysteria’ song at 1659 times closely followed by ‘Animal’ with 1648 performances.
