Def Leppard To Perform NFL Pre-Game Set At Wembley Stadium
Tuesday, 26 August 2014
Written by Jon Stickler
Def Leppard will perform the pre-game show at the first of this year’s three NFL International Series games on September 28, when the Oakland Raiders host the Miami Dolphins.
The five-piece will turn out at Wembley Stadium before kick-off in the NFL’s ninth regular-season game to be played in London since the International Series began in 2007.
Def Leppard’s lead singer, Joe Elliott, said:
“Having most recently visited Wembley in May to watch Sheffield United in the FA Cup semi-final, I know what the atmosphere in the ground is like for ‘our’ football so I’m really looking forward to performing there before the NFL game and of course soaking up the excitement of the actual match. I can’t wait!”
The game kicks off at 6pm (UK time) and will be aired live in the UK on Channel 4 and Sky Sports and in the US on CBS. A limited number of tickets returned by the participating teams will go on sale at 10am on September 4.
