If you wanted to pour some sugar on your significant other during the Def Leppard show at PNC Park this summer, you’ll have to wait a little bit longer.

The stadium tour featuring classic-era “hair-metal” bands Motley Crüe, Def Leppard, Poison and Joan Jett & the Blackhearts, has been rescheduled for Aug. 12, 2022.

“This is the only way to ensure that we can play all of the dates for all of you who have purchased tickets,” Motley Crüe members said in a statement posted to their Twitter page on Friday. “We appreciate you hanging in there and can’t wait to get back on stage and bring The Stadium Tour to all our fans.”

Ticket prices range from $91 to more than $700, and are available through Ticketmaster.

Between the four of them, the groups have sold more than 250 million albums worldwide during their careers, and are among the defining groups of 1980s “glam” metal.
