Def Leppard is the best, that's why they sell seats.

[@baldrick6071]

The secret to their success is simple. Humility! They’ve never taken their audience for granted and you can see they genuinely love what they do always giving 100% in their live shows!

[@leahbrooker6593]

They fill seats because they have Real Talent.

[@MattKittredge2112]

Bingo! 👍🏻

[@1kewlglamma]

Straight up!

[@thesentinelsfootballchanne3212]

NOW I HAVE A REASON TO SEE THEM LIVE!!!!!!!!!!! Pyromania is one of the greatest metal records EVER!

[@MrChrisStingray]

They sell seats over these pop acts because they are actual real artists and superb performers.

[@MisterBaltimoron]

1983 I was driving on H1 and could see Aloha Stadium and beyond when Photograph played on local FM station. I could not believe what I was hearing! I’ve seen DL half dozen times since and will see them again this summer in Virginia. Can’t wait!

[@shanegoade4655]

Unlike Motley Crue, who with Vince Neil, sound terrible live these days, Leppard brings it! I saw them at the Vegas residency show and they were everything I hoped they'd be! I plan to catch them this time around too. They're only gonna do this so many more times before they call it a career. Better see 'em while you can and while they're still killin' it!

[@bcardamone]

They put butts in seats because they have talent. They create and play music that makes people feel good. Never could have imagined that they’d still be here 45 years in. Thanks mates!

[@missypyatt247]

My two sons that are 22 & 24 and I went and saw the boys last night kicking off the summer tour in STL... They were beyond amazing.. I loved that I got to share this experience with my boys and my favorite band. Amazing show!

[@nookbandit]

The set list is strong, great start and finish

[@1kewlglamma]

[@debbiemiller4358]

They know what they are doing, been my #1 since 1982! They still sound great!

[@kaybright2539]

❤ def leppard thank you for posting looking forward to the behind the scenes and the concerts on KZbin 👋👍

[@trekboi88]

Can’t wait to see them at Wrigley Field shortly! One of my favorite bands since middle school. My aunt met them on more than one occasion backstage and she is the one who got me into them. This is so exciting! I’m not going for Journey. I’m going for these guys!!!

[@johnnyhill5361]

I love pyromania. but High and Dry is still my favorite. Because thats when i discovered Def Leppard

[@gracepiercy5699]

This band gives me chills, makes me happy cry, and takes me back to the best memories of my life. SO excited for 7/20 in Nashville! I may die of a heatstroke but what a way to go 😂🔥

[@valmacclinchy]

Photograph!!!❤

[@jennycastaneda8839]

I got to see Def Leppard last summer. I rather see Def Leppard many more times than Jennifer Lopez or Bad Bunny.

[@tinageiger9559]

Still shocked that she compared those to Def Leppard 😮

[@parisconstantinou8299]

keep on the great work guys!!!!!

[@naomimcmahon4292]

Can’t wait, 8/7, Cities Field, NY ❤ LOVE TOU GUYS. GENX here. Rocked with you since early 80’s ❤❤❤❤

[@user-jj7zx6tg4n]

Their music is great ❤

[@TheTamaradafne]

This band makes me feel twelve since I was twelve.. I lose myself, my problems don't exist when I sing and dance at their shows. Their songs make me feel something unexplainable. Can't get enough of their concerts. Most fans, we go to see them as much as we can no matter where we live. I am from Argentina and I'll be travelling in August to the US just to see them. August 9th at Hard Rock!

[@JamieLynnMorris]

Awesomeness!!! Thanks Lyndsey ❤

[@MichelleSatovsky-wz8kw]

Have the CD 💿 in my car stereo system 😊 thank you for the years.

[@keithryals1854]

Great interview

[@peggycoyle-vr9fs]

A loyal female fan since the release of On Through the Night and seeing Leppard live twice on their first American Tour. I was hooked from the beginning and have never missed an American Tour since. They were amazing then and are my absolute favorite band to this day. ❤

[@briankish3757]

Incredible show in Atlanta last night! Fan since I was a teenager (early/mid-80's) and was my first time seeing them live. Before closing out the show, Joe said they WOULD be back. I sure hope so!

[@ShirleyMcClain-qj7hl]

Def LEPPARD is JUST AWESOME!❤❤❤❤❤

[@julesecho119]

❤❤You guys are so awesome, your like my family...Goodluck with the tour this summer hope to see you 💋 😊❤❤❤❤ 🎶

[@michellestevens3237]

I love seen this guys.They rock my soul. ❤❤❤

[@Kendra-w5c]

Best music ever July 13 th Atlanta Georgia can't wait!!!

[@tommyoverby5301]

They rocked the house in St Louis. My wife and I had 6th row center and def Leppard blew us back 4 rows with the intro. Fkn awesome

[@robertouttamyndx4400]

Def Leppard and their peers got into the industry before the digital door slammed shut on the bands ! That is why they can consistently put asses in seats every year every show !!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@bh5082]

Loved them in St. Louis! 😍 Amazing!

[@chuckharst8676]

Going to Dallas! Can't wait

[@vitorbarbosa5656]

Pyromania foreverrrrrrr The best cd This elas real def Now is a pop band 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱🇮🇱

[@carolynrebeccadick3907]

Awesome video ❤

[@olivier5866]

PYROMANIA is a top Album. Best Regards from France

[@glenngoodrich5244]

It still sounds dam good!

[@mspfourreal6540]

Wow!Hanoi Rocks!! You know Joe loves Michael Monroe!

[@CyclerJohn]

I'd say the Canadian band Triumph deserves to be in the R&RHOF. They were one of the best bands at the 1983 US festival and had many great songs. DL also had another MTV video that I think came out before Pyromania but wasn't release on any studio album and its name was Me and My Wine which is on You-Tube and is pretty funny.

[@spiderman0863]

💯 percent

[@nevadadan4113]

Couldn't agree more- Triumph definitely needs to be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame..

[@cristydonaldson7627]

They just have that extra special magic that has lasted the decades.

[@wndowpayne]

Its not on Pyro of course but how about "Lady Strange"?...last time live?

[@phasevariance258]

Now that's an awesome interviewer

[@jurgencuypers8350]

Another tour. Arent people not bored seeing them.

[@giovannaantonialli4364]

Seeing them for the 3rd time in Nashville on July 20th

[@yoyokum1483]

You coming to Peoria Illinois

[@eddiemuniz761]

Did Girl (Phil Collens and Phil lewises first band) play shows in America with U.F.O. In 1980 on the nowhere to Run tour?????

[@eternalwreck]

See you August 16th! 🤘

[@JamieLynnMorris]

Enjoy the Nashville show! I'm in for Atlanta on the 13th. 😱

[@user-nz1ce7nz4e]

I'm a screaming woman, now I have a screaming 22 year old, she screams louder than me, I raised her right!

[@GoldWildFire]

Oh no Now as well.. we young girl fans are now old lady fans.. no change just age& maturity!! 😅❤

[@robinpowers4447]

Hell Yeah 🤘🔥❤️🤩

[@wingerfan1]

The reason they're still selling out stadiums is because they are 100% alive with no pre-recorded bullshit.

[@eddiemuniz761]

Would Def Leppard ever consider playing more material from the first 2 albums that were written with Pete Willis and Steve Clark like Overture and lady strange?????

[@kestonsoldschoolcomicbooks6842]

Great questions, Lyndsey. I have one question for you. What do you want? Lean into Pyromania for your answer!

[@MetalHeadAZ]

they are real musicians

UFO should be in RRHoFame! Travesty they arnt and yes Thin Lizzy. Good interview , still vital and developing band after all these years alongside Maiden and Saxon. Come back to Oz again.

A shame that Vivian has to play for this band.

Why have Vivian at these? They never bring him into the conversation... These reporters are too unknowledgable to know how great he is & how lucky Def Lepard are to have him.

[@charlesmeckler8683]

Gotta remember vivan was not part of the band during the pyromania recording sessions, bringing on the heartbreak video, n hysteria album. It seemed like alot of the questions were towards the early years.

[@educatedhorses193]

Yeah and Steve Clark is dead so

[@datacipher]

@@charlesmeckler8683 exactly...it's they Pyromania tour and that's what she focused on. Too bad for Viv, but such is life. They aren't doing it on purpose. AND NOTE: it's not like Viv is UNLUCKY to be there. There's a good chance that without Def Leppard - as talented is Viv is - he'd be a studio musician somewhere or out of the business entirely. No matter how much talent you have, it's not like you can be a megastar or in a band like Leppard at will. Many great and talented guys - actually MOST of them - end up not finding a hugely successful gig and disappearing. After Whitesnake it's not like Viv had any clear path to continued stardom.

They look sooo old 😆

@@ZXSPEX my father is 64 and he looks much younger than they are looking, sometimes people stop taking care of their appearence as they age, and I can say what I want, they are celebrities and we have the right to have our opinions. By the way, do they also come here to defend your parents when people say that they look old? 😂

[@lesduffey6032]

Summer stadium tour? Most fans are hitting 60 and want nothing more than to stay at home and save money, its cool these guys still get to play but im not interested at all. I'd rather stay at home and drink and listen to music in the garage.
