    Wrigley Field, Chicago

    Def Leppard played to a sold-out Wrigley Field crowd on an appropriately windy night in Chicago, Illinois, 8 July 2022. Phil suffered a broken little toe but soldiered on through the blistering 18-song set. The Chicago Tribune praised that the band "addressed the songs like anthems deserve to be treated — with chords that rang out for miles, rousing lead vocals, driving harmonies, tight rhythms and clean, vibrant sonics".
