Being a young black teenage girl growing up on the west side of Chicago in America, I struggled finding friends who loved these guys as much as I did. It was my father who would make sure I had front row concert tickets to their shows whenever they would come to America. I'm 50 years old now, and these guys still have my heart. 🇺🇲❤💋🙂🇺🇲

[@DS-od1kb]

Welcome to the the UK rock family.

[@theSacredAtheist]

I'm 47 and I just got to see them for the first time in my life in february in Monterrey , Mexico. I have been theor fan since the 80's. The are AMZING. Motley Crue played so...that's a big plus.

[@RealricksavageOfficial]

That's so sweet of you I really appreciate the love and support I get from you fans.. hope you keep on rocking to our tracks as we keep on entertaining you all...♥️

[@marcelaruby84]

My conversation with Steve before he died will forever be in My heart, he was the best

[@shannonburninhell8906]

Steve. Clark. Probly. Killed. Him. Self when. He. Relised. Def. Lep. Suck

[@karenhann8678]

U know the difference between Steve and his replacement. Steve's great.

[@kimsmith819]

That would be an amazing memory 💞💞💞💞💞

[@KissMyFatAxe]

Lucky son of a bitch. He's literally my idol. I wouldn't be in the music business if it weren't for the initial inspiration I got from Steve Clark. Legend

[@IamRaloPib]

@@karenhann8678 Vivian Campbell is an amazing player...he was DIO's original guitarist and composer

[@copp214]

Def Leppard waited for Rick to heal. They showed their integrity as a band when Rick had his accident. I have a lot of respect for them. I had a blast at the arena in Marysville twice when they played along with Journey. Def Leppard fan for life.

They are up for hall of fame this year go to www.rockhall.com and vote for them

[@CFKMAN]

They will be!

[@arianafaustini42]

They are! Will be inducted in January, I believe!

[@Jaymindrew1990]

Inducted this March 2019. What took them so long to select them? I thought they’d never do so! 🎸🇬🇧

[@jayb6217]

They let Madonna in the RRHOF, so it only makes sense that Def Leppard is going in there as well.

[@scott7521]

Def Leppard 1980-1983 R.I.P.

[@dvg4104]

Yep, they were a great hard rock band back then.

[@leograham8477]

def leppard is one of the best rock band there is i love there music

[@Glock-1]

Def Leppard is the sound track of a whole generation, my favorite band of all time!

[@deathkampdrone]

3:52 Sav just nails that riff

[@stephengreenwood5681]

They are so still down to earth 🌎 that no day's is so rare

[@angelafishburn7654]

Anyone else rewind the part where they said "Who Cares?" at the same time? That was priceless!

[@suzieirely9649]

Right, they said another thing at the same time as well, check1:06', "no Raynor"

[@suzieirely9649]

Sorry, Rayner

@Rosida Andriyana Too late snottox. Best band ever is the most idiotic statement here,yours coming a close second.

[@jayb6217]

'Best band ever'? LOL!!

[@fredlandry6170]

My favorite band!

[@teresabosworth1481]

Are you guys aware that Rick Allen's wife has been doing a few songs with him Hes not going to leave you guys after all these years is he?

[@shellyortiz1977]

Saw them live all i got to say there freaking amazing

[@crazycatladyann390]

Love def leppard. Sad that they are getting older. And that that time is gone. And sad that the good music has ended. I listened to this alot in my child hood. I was born in 96 and still loved them. I want to go to a concert sooooooo bad.

[@edwardbakadingo4261]

well they were still teens when they did inital albums, they are still below retirement age so they are not that old

[@SJ-br9sb]

Still on fire after more than 40 years! My favorite band, DEF LEPPARD!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 i still hope you'll be back in Asia soon (after the health scare its dealing with rn). Love you always! #rockbrigadeforever #DefLeppard

[@marcus813]

I still can't believe that the band blew up here in the U.S. before it blew up in the U.K. I didn't find that out until the 2000s.

[@anacionqtfixo]

'sugar' has always been a great metaphor for the 'mating ritual' so funny

[@mehdisabiri5900]

The only band played in 3 continents in one day: london, tangier in Morocco, and Vancouver in Canada. I'm a big fan from Morocco

[@margaretw3409]

So glad I got to see them live in the 80's! They put on an awesome show!

[@mirifiquebeauty]

Saw them in the round in Glagow SCC. Amazing. Saw Guns 'n' Roses two week prior to that at Manchester Main Road and i tell you, Def Leppard are the band i never forgot,

[@PaganWarrior100]

I wish Def Leppard would do a tour for those of us who love the heavier stuff. Just a tour playing songs like wasted, comin’ under fire, white lightning, lady strange, etc! Savage says they didn’t want to alienate us but that’s exactly what happened. Leppard haven’t released any heavy stuff since Retroactive.

[@dvg4104]

First two albums material only!

[@angelawallace6317]

Been listenng to Def Leppard since 1987 56 now amazing band looking forward to Glasgow 2023

I could watch interviews with def leppard all day. I have a list of people I could just sit in front of a log fire with with a glass of my favourite drink and a cheap cigar and just listen to them talk about stuff, these guys are high on that list.

[@maureen14]

I'd like to hear who's on the rest of your list.

[@xeddlucas53]

The BEST rock band ever 🎸

[@lisawalter1819]

Rick savage is a awesome beautiful base player love the guy very much

[@teresabosworth1481]

*Bass

[@ruthyates6324]

The most beautiful sound is the world these guys sharing ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

[@MrMatthiasSchneider]

Interesting to see Rick Savage play the six-string and actually do that little lead guitar part.

[@justinmoody6721]

my understanding is he started off as a guitarist, but switched to bass admitting Willis was better, and they needed a bass.

I love def leppard. They still rock. So professional still.

[@fredlandry6170]

I remember first hearing Photograph and playing air guitar when I was 13 years old.

[@theunknown4570]

Awesome growing up in the 80s.

[@joebloggs1444]

I rehearsed in their room at the Portland works back then. We took it over after they left due to hitting the big time. At the time, we hoped using the same room would mean we'd make it too. Despite much work it was not to be. Def Leppard...biggest band to ever come out of Sheffield...🙄😌

[@joes7885]

Great band. They're so cool and real. My favorite band of all time.

[@JeffWiersma]

I love that the bassist and lead singer are playing the guitar

[@nickycotton6137]

These cracked the USA (not too many UK bands have managed that early on) besides UK and Fans worldwide. They respect fellow bands of their genre + the Drummer tbf. Absolutely rinsed Hysteria @ 9 yrs old+, & 'Adrenalize' was a bit of a grower, but fave nowadays!

[@morgancatherwood5665]

'We all knew it wasn't bob Dylan' Lol! I always thought the lyrics were ridiculous, but the song is so catchy. The guitar parts have always been some of my favorites from Steve and Phil

[@chriscollins9362]

LOVE the Leppard! I always feel better after listening to them no matter what I'm feeling. Maybe it's my inner Leppard or something lol RICK is amazing by the way. Man he just kept going no matter what. Inspiring man.

[@kalel311superman9]

these men have come a long way since

[@aaronrican5060]

Seen them in concert 3 times in my life, no regrets🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

[@chrisofnottingham]

I saw them at a fairly small venue (like 500 capacity) just before they broke big and my strongest live impression was the great harmony vocals of Joe and Rick

[@mikekaraoke]

You sure it wasn't just more of an intimate gig, bands still did that even when they made it big/very big! What year was this??

[@chrisofnottingham]

@@mikekaraoke I'm gonna guess I was 15, which makes it 1978 but it could be a year either way. In fact it was at the no longer existing West Runton Pavilion, in Norfolk, England. A tiny rural venue, way off the radar that somehow managed to book a series of major acts just before they broke. Saw Motorhead (classic line up), Rory Gallagher, Budgie there all in the middle of nowhere :-)

[@denicefithian1328]

I love these guys! Gorgeous and so very talented!! See you in philly with Journey in June!! Going to be best night of my life.. Hard time deciding left stage seat to see Viv vs. right side Phil!! I know Joe and Sav travel stage tho so IM GREAT WHEREVER!! Love you guys please keep rockin'!!!

They gradually became big in Britain between Pyromania and Hysteria; while nobody would ever wish Rick Allen a horrible car crash and losing an arm, the truth is that it gave the band residual publicity they weren't previously getting.
