DEF LEPPARD DOES DARIEN LAKE
Gunter Glieben Glauchen Globen. Musically, I live by two rules: (1) You can never play enough U2. (2) There is only one way to turn Def Leppard: up!
Several years ago, I had the opportunity to see U2 in Vegas. As hard as I've tried, I have never been able to get into another U2 concert. Even though I've seen U2, I have never seen Def Leppard.
On June 25th, I heard a radio commercial that Def Leppard was coming to Darien Lake, so, I called Linda to get some tickets. Come to find out, the concert was in two days and the only seats left were ten rows back from the stage. Without hesitation, I ordered those great seats.
It has been a long time since I've done a concern at Darien Lake and much has changed. The concert arena has grown-up and looks very professional. This concert featured Cheap Trick, Poison, and Def Leppard. Cheap Trick was stuck at the airport, so, we got a double-dose of Poison. Then Def Leppard came on and played all my favorites.
I became concerned the concert would be ruined by the drunk standing next to Linda. After he tried to pick a fight with a family man sitting in front of us and spilt beer on Linda I was ready to get it on and yelled "Did he just spill beer on you?" Linda calmed me down and I came to realize that getting beer dumped on you is just part of going to a concert. What would a concert me without that?
The drunk stumbled off with his girlfriend halfway through the show, fell in the aisle, and never made it back to his seats.
Aside from the disruption, the concert was awesome. I left def and happy.
