Def Leppard - Die Hard the Hunter (Live @ Sirius XM Garage)

The FIRST performance of Die Hard The Hunter since 2019!
Also note: one thing I noticed about this one is they completely skipped the second verse. My guess is time constraints. Only being able to play for a hour. Had to cut the song shorter.

Absolutely! I saw them on the 2022 Stadium Tour in Detroit and the Crue closed out. Def Leppard should’ve closed, they KILLED IT!! The Crue have lost their mojo.

[@AimingWanderously]

GOD I wish they would still write tunes like this. This was when Def Leppard ruled the world.

[@TonyFromSyracuse101]

Yeah, its not that they arent writing great tunes nowadays, its just that back then there were on some sort of magic ride with the writing, the songs all have almost a comic book novelty concept in a great way.

[@AimingWanderously]

@@TonyFromSyracuse101 I agree. Steve had a lot to do with this style of songwriting. Nowadays, and I mean this with the utmost respect to them, they write mostly mom rock.

[@roadhog-so8en]

Steve and Mutt are gone from the writing.Mutt tweaked most of their demo's into hits.

[@beansandcornbread]

It’s not that they can’t, but they choose not to. Very frustrating but they don’t owe me a damn thing.

[@hawkeye31k]

I remember introducing guys in college who played Pour Some Sugar On Me on repeat to 'On Through the Night' and 'High n Dry.' They thought Pyromania was the first album. They still played Hysteria to death, but at least they knew. :)

[@eldridge201]

I agree with the exception of one main thing that I think you really can't disagree with as well. They really need to have the lead singer's voice coming out a bit more. I understand why they are subduing it so that it's not overbearing but they really need to bring it out more unfortunately. Other than one small part during the song that they missed a guitar part that was a little bit lower, it sounded pretty good.

True, Steve Clark had an unbelievable gift of being able to produce amazing melodic riffs. Switch 625 is a masterpiece . Whilst still a great band after Steve's passing IMO they never managed to recreate the songwriting magic that they had with Steve .

[@alchomfeld]

Def Leppard in 2024. This is awesome!

[@JackMcLeodJr]

Def Leppards Pyromania album (1983), not a boring song on it. Close to perfect hard rock album. Comin' Under Fire is my personal favourite.

[@joncope9175]

And the last good hard rock album they made.

[@JackMcLeodJr]

@@joncope9175 That's subjective, but I tend to agree.

[@WildTaper]

@@joncope9175Disagree. Slang is very heavy, so is their 2015 self titled. Their newest album Diamond Star Halos has some heavy tracks on it too.

[@johngerson7335]

Yeah, "Comin' Under Fire" would have to rate as one of my favs too! Great example of everything that they did very well at that time.

[@gladtidings6020]

Now this is a world class rock band. They are all seriously talented.

[@MattTexas]

As much as I enjoyed 3/4ths of Motley on the 2022 tour, Leppard was night and day different in quality of performance. I appreciate them so much because they strive to put on a great live show.

I have tremendous respect for Rick Allen!!!!!!!! It boggles my mind that despite losing his left arm in a car accident, he’s still playing the drums for Def Leppard!!!!!!!! If that’s not inspirational for drummers to keep going, I don’t know what is!!!!!!!!! He’s one of my favorite drummers ever!!!!!!!!!!

[@shaneemerson7843]

No shit

[@JIF882]

Joe Elliot has said in interviews that when Rick had both of his arms, he would try to overcomplicate the songs with his playing. Since he lost his arm, he had to simplify his playing

[@Emmanuelwithus]

I saw Def at my local 6000 seat arena on their Hysteria tour in 1988. They were late due to border patrol holding them up at the Canadian/US border. They apologized to the crowd, got us all psyched up, began playing awesomely as Def Leppard only can, and the ladies bras started piling up quickly on their mic stands like the store racks they were bought from, because they were playing on an "in the round" stage for that tour. Magical night that made an impression on a young teenage guy of 14 who's also a musician! The 70s and 80s were the best and I'm so glad I was alive to experience such great years!

[@RandyFricke]

They sound as great as they ever did. Watching Rick is so amazing. He does more with three limbs than most drummers could do with two extra.

@@bryang9290 it won’t. So many people have commented on these videos saying Joe is lip syncing or they’re using vocal tracks. It NEVER ends even though the band have stated themselves 480,000 times already that they don’t use vocal tracks. People just don’t listen! Jealously.

[@BigboyRoy100]

Yep have seen this comment from people also, they have no musicality whatsoever to think this isn't live. They have always been incredibly tight musically live onstage. They don't need to use backing tracks. The only additions are some samples for Rick Allen's drum kit.

[@WildTaper]

@@BigboyRoy100 Yep. Which the band confirmed were TRUE. We knew about the drum samples. Rick’s got 1 arm. He can’t do the Rocket intro live. No one could. It’s simple. The vocal tracks aren’t live. Sav controls keyboard parts with his pedals which people think are “tracks” it’s not. If Sav is controlling it with his body it’s him doing it.

[@BigboyRoy100]

@WildTaper My missus saw them many times in the late 80s and early 90s, from when Steve was there and then when Vivian joined. They do/did all the stuff live, some of the tightest backing harmonies from bands of the era. There was even a time on a cruise ship show Joe Elliot fell ill with laryngitis, Vivian and Phil sang all the setlist whilst playing. I don't know many bands that could pull that off without their lead singer. Those who don't get it it's their loss!
