Def Leppard

[thome]

Video Premire on VH1
So, did anyone see it ?
Does anyone care ?

I liked it the tune ,it rocks and has what it takes, a new twist, without ruinning the classic it came from.

The New Tune/Vid is -Rock On- by David Essex came out in 70 or 73 ,,?

The new album is a visiting of old rock tunes Faces,T-Rex, Bowie,etc

Did anyone see 20th Century Boy performed by DL on the VH1 Rock Honors show? It was real good treat for the masses like me.

I really like the way over the years, DL has payed to the ones who came before, they are good at knowing where it began and paying
some respect.

The Band was on tour in Europe, rite now, will hit the States, Tonight,
in NJ.I am put out till Sept, I may go, could be fun.

Why so My Main Little Man..?

They rock and have weathered time, lost members and apendages.
Steve Clark,Rick Allen,still hittin it still doin it.

Granted most Bands Flame out so you only have one super hit to
remember them by .

What's wrong with a long history band ,,?

They hate Def Leppard cause they "sold out". However, little do they know, but Def Leppard WANTED to make it on the charts. They saw Michael Jackson have 7 singles, and decided they could do the same. When Hysteria was released, a lot of people started hating them, saying they'd gone "soft" or turned into "pussy metal". I love em no matter what they do

I hate them, however worse they can be each time they commit a record.

Alot of those (Def Leppard) songs weigh heavily in the soundtrack of my eighties. If you didn't rockthefuckout to Rock Of Ages back then, you ain't right.

Plus the singer claims to have puked on Robert Plant's private jet.

Fanfuckingtastic.

I still can remember the babe i was with late mid eighties where was VH
nowhere on my list DLR was tearing it up and Def Leppard was
filling some of the crossover void that kept me from hearin Vhagar
non stop on the Radio.

Def Leppard..... one of my all-time favorite bands.

Love them or hate them... at least they don't suck as much as Bon Jovi.

Hysteria was a masterpiece, so was High 'n Dry. Pyromania was grate too, but could use a serious remix and remaster.... it sounds like shit on headphones.

I am SOOOO disappointed in those guys... they went from being a force (in the metal scene) to th butt of a lot of jokes!! FUCK 'EM

I re-bought it last year on CD, I have to confess...

But when listening to it again, I thought that the drummer sounded like he had already lost an arm!
And to think that Mutt Lange produced it...

I bought Hysteria at the time (1987 if I remember well), and damn, how disappointing!
Fucking keyboards!

I never liked Def Leppard.

Always thought they were an even shitter version of Bon Jovi.

Joe Elliot can't really sing, but all the guitarist in that band have been good, I must say.

I can see why people like them, they're just not for me....

I love everything through Hysteria. After that my interest dwindled. But I still listen to Hysteria & Pyromania a lot. Great albums. Chick friendly too.

[binnie]

Chick friendly indeed!

I must admit, those records did help me get my dick wet a lot back in the day.....

I took a girl 3 hours away to see them. We weren't dating when they played our town a month or so before & she missed it. But when we found out about the other show, she really wanted to go...so, of course I gave in. Had to get me some.

Additional bonus - in the line to get food & drinks, I found $40 on the ground. Double score evening for me.
