Aibu to remind you of how bloody brilliant Def Leppard are/were?

Saw a documentary on Sky Arts on the making of the album Hysteria. Fascinating! And I never really appreciated until now just what a fantastic album it is. Here's an example:

Hysteria - what an absolute classic

My Fav too! Saw them twice years ago and they were amazing. My DD and partner went to see the Stadium Tour as well and said they were fantastic! Love that the younger generation loves them too. They have gone through so many tragedies and still keep going, love them!

I first saw them 43 years ago in September 1979 at Hillsborough Park, Sheffield (other acts on the day included Chas & Dave, The Nolans and Dollar), and have followed them ever since. My favourite gig was in the round in June 1992.

DH and I regard them as our band as we’re from their home city. We saw them on pyromania and hysteria tours and again in the early 90s and then a few years ago on the hysteria anniversary tour. Great gig but I couldn’t cope with folks wanting to sit down nicely. Although on one of their Sheffield city hall gigs in the 80s we think we were near their parents who were all sitting down!

YANBU. They are amazing

Ah, the memories 🥰 loved them back in the 90s and fancied the pants of Joe Elliott, saw them live a few times, happy times.

Photograph!
I was 11 and growing up on American MTV when it came out.
The song and Joe Elliott wearing his Union Jack top in the video gave me fanny gallops before I even knew what fanny gallops were.
That track still kicks total ass.

Thunder are one of my favourites. Seen them loads and met the band a couple of times. If you get a chance go and see Danny & Luke acoustic.

Danny Bowes isn't bald 😂

I'm so bloody jealous.

What an amazing line up

I saw that your in Cardiff

We saw DL on a double header with Motley Crue several years ago (think 2012).I'm a big fan of both. Joe doesn't have the amazing vocals any more to carry those anthemic songs, which is sad but not surprising. Motley Crue, on the other hand, sound as good as they did in the Eighties. Clearly they have struck a deal at a crossroads somewhere.

Same!

They're pretty good, the old stuff is great. Fun live.

@jcyclops yes I saw them
In the round too I think Gunn were supporting them.

Back in 1988, my ‘boyfriend’ who was 24 (I was 16 😱 but he was very respectful and never laid a finger on me, we were just mates) had a Ford Capri and I remember him driving me round in it and playing this.. I thought I was SO cool!
if I hear it now I get shivers and remember some really happy times 😊

Bottomofthepileasusual yes you're right, he's just very grey now (I can't talk much either!) and hair very short. When he was interviewed on TV I think the lighting made him look bald 🤣 but I stand corrected

He's super nice too.

He's got a head injury atm I believe.

One of my fave bands. Didn’t know there was a documentary about the making of Hysteria, it’s such a great album. I will be on that later this evening. Thanks OP👍🏻.
