DEF LEPPARD Gets Namechecked By MICK JAGGER - Sep. 14, 2006
According to a posting on DEF LEPPARD's official web site, DEF LEPPARD got a good namecheck last week during a ROLLING STONES show at Don Valley, Sheffield. During one of Mick Jagger's audience raps between two songs, he showed that he knew his: "It's great to be in Sheffield, the home of DEF LEPPARD! Who knows, we may do a version of 'Pour Some Sugar on Me' for the encore..."
DEF LEPPARD singer Joe Elliott recently posted a message on the official DefLeppard.com web site stating the band band is "gonna try and get a new album done in time to tour in 2007." Elliott said the band was thinking about dates in Europe, where they played earlier this year, as well as heading to Japan and Australia. The singer did caution fans that nothing was set in stone, writing "Of course, anything can change — and lots of things probably will!!!! — but as of right now, that's our plan."
DEF LEPPARD recently released their cover of T. REX's "20th Century Boy" as the new single from covers project "Yeah!" |

Not a huge fan..but I thought it was cool of the band to wait for the drummer to rehab himself after losing his arm.At their peak most would have just gotten another guy and moved on....... |

At one point they were actually considered part of the New Wave Of British Metal. Its been a sad road indeed. And my 23 year old Pyromania cassette wont play anymore. |

He , like Townshend and Daltrey, has no real r/s with Keith other than the corporate stuff...they are not friends at all. |

well they had a good run and Pyromania is the best LP of that period, bar none, still listen to it a lot. Hysteria had some good stuff too but then it's been a disaster ever since, since they lost Steve Clark actually.
I believe they were trying to record Hysteria in Wisselord at the time Mick was there for PC. |

Def Lepard was a lame ass, W.A.S.P.'s idea of heavy metal. They were the Monkees to Iron Maiden's Stones. |
