Joe, I am a 59-year-old, bald, African American, gay man, living in Michigan. DEF LEPPARD is my all-time favorite band. I simply love, love you guys. Best band on the planet. When I first heard PHOTOGRAPH on MTV, I was hooked. I got the huge DEF LEPPARD choke hold and I can’t free myself. You, guys, are a beast of a group. Joe, you are the epitome of cool. DEF LEPPARD isn’t just a band. You, guys, are a FAMILY. Your fans ( I am your biggest) adore all of you. We won’t have it any other way. Keep cranking out the hits, and we all will keep on rockin’! Thanks for all the great music and memories! Peace.

Yaaay, Joe!! You gotta Neve! Ronan certainly knows his shit! Best console ever! Flying Faders!! My partner worked for Neve (NYC) in the late 80’s, early 90’s. He even met Rupert Neve at an AES Awards Show! I’ve wired up and installed so many of these (8068, 8078, 8088 VR Series) in NYC. Back then, every studio bought one; the other being SSL (which also kept me very busy). You have ALL the great, old, analog outboard gear, and it looks like you’re using a U87. I love all your guitars! Can’t go wrong. Great engineer, great equipment = great sound. Of course, you and your mates have GREAT TALENT. Thanks for the tour! Thank you for all the music; it always puts a smile on my face! Rock of Ages, indeed! Cheers!!!😊❤🤘🎸🎶🍻🥃

I love the way Joe invested his money wisely and made the band financially independent from the label and fought for the digital rights to their music. As exemplified in this video, so much of the technology needed for a fantastic sounding album is easily obtainable for home studios and it only continues to become more and more economically viable for people/bands to setup their own studios. Now, getting the talent behind and in front of the equipment - that will always remain the challenge.
