    Def Leppard, Cheap Trick and Poison have announced details of a joint US tour.

    The 36-date summer tour will begin in Camden, New Jersey on June 23rd and also includes shows in Hartford, Milwaukee and Birmingham.

    The jaunt will see each rock band play a 90-minute set.

    Def Leppard’s Joe Elliot told Billboard: “When you do your greatest hits and some new material or extra stuff you might throw in, you have got to push and shove and clamp down.”

    Elliot added that he felt the strong line up would help overcome the affect the current financial crisis is having on ticket sales.

    “We’ve taken the path of least resistance, we’ve put a bill together that we think is attractive,” he added.
