Deck: Aiway HS-J08
Tapes Maxell XLII
Master Recording

This is a fantastic recording of a "hot" show ... in more ways than one. Had awesome seats just a few rows up near Rick Allen, right in line with a set of speakers.

This was a ridiculously hot night in Ottawa ... Joe makes several comments about the heat too. I was worried about getting the deck into the show as I usually put the deck in the front of my pants with my belt holding it up, but it kept slipping beacuse it was so humnid and hot that I was soaked just walking from my car to the venue.

Almost a complete show... "Pour Some Sugar On Me" is missing (I think it was to follow "Foolin"). Not sure what happened, I must've missed hitting record, or inadvertently hit stop ... but whatever happened resulted in my missing that one song.

Even so, a great sounding, very energetic show from Def Leppard on the Hysteria tour. I traded this snail mail a few times back in the day, but not extensively so I'm sure it's circulation is extremely low.

Enjoy !!
