To celebrate the recent release of the Def Leppard track pack on Guitar Hero III and the groups latest album, ‘Songs From The Sparkle Lounge’, the rockers will attend a signing session at HMV’s flagship store on Oxford Street in London’s West End on Wednesday 7th May.

The band will be there from 6pm and will sign copies of their album, which is due for release two days before.

Def Leppard recently became the first ever band to debut a new single via Xbox live, with 'Nine Lives'

As part of the event, Def Leppard celebrate the release of the brand new single, ‘Nine Lives’ featuring Tim McGraw, which is available for download through worldwide smash hit videogame ‘Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock’. This is the first time EVER a band or artist has released a new single ahead of its traditional launch through a videogame.

All fans that attend the HMV event will be in with a chance to win an exclusive Guitar Hero branded & signed Ephiphone plus VIP tickets to see Def Leppard in concert at Wembley on 26th June. And as an added bonus, HMV will be running a Guitar Hero offer on the day of the in-store.
