The drummer Rick Allen lost his arm in a car crash. It took 2 yrs learn how to play drums again. The band waited for him.There;s several foot pedals he use his left foot to play the parts his left hand would've played Great songs "Rock of Agea" "Photograph" "Foolin".They were great in concert.That same round stage & lasers

[@truckshackley373]

Mad respect to the band for standing by him and not replacing him, which I’m sure they were under tremendous pressure from the record execs to do.

[@boblozaintherealworld3577]

Aha. Just being a bass player I didn't want to pitch in, but I'd heard that (depending on the drummer) the left foot is normally the least used extremity out of four. And so DL's engineers exploited this fact. See? We bass players DO listen...especially to the kick drum. We just ignore the guitarists. All the best.

[@traviscrockett3640]

2 years is nothing. Got a friend that couldn’t play drums with 2 arms to save his life. Tried for 15 years. But That speaks to Rick’s talent and drive that it only took him two. My all time fave drummer.

[@nitro_001newman2]

I was wondering whether they were going to catch that. They finally did toward the end of the video.

[@nitro_001newman2]

Def Leppard has so many hit songs, but the song that really put them on the popularity map was the song and video “Photograph” so I suggest you react to that for your next Def Leppard reaction.

First album after drummer Rick Allen's car accident where he lost his left arm. It was 80's. Song is on the 1987 album, Hysteria. And last album before guitarist Steve Clark (long blond hair) passed away in 1991. This album, and the previous album Pyromania, were huge.

[@josephgilbert3632]

That passing might as well have been suicide.

[@rowanmayfair9249]

That's what makes that album so bittersweet. The videos only enhance that feeling.

[@rickm1380]

How does Def Leppard drummer play with one arm? Equipment. Allen has used custom-manufactured cable routing by Whirlwind. He uses four electronic pedals for his left foot to play the pieces he used to play with his left arm, which from left to right trigger sounds of a closing hi-hat, bass drum, snare drum, and a tom drum.

[@rowanmayfair9249]

There's a video that shows how he does it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/jWPWaKatjqtgfbMsi=sqtJAUiGNIu0ROVP

[@KathyLuluandDonna]

Wow

[@sumonjamal1653]

Def Leppard were formed in Sheffield, England when the lads were teenagers in the 70's... Despite being a UK band (heavily influenced by Queen as u can tell)... they became stars in America by 1983 while being completely ignored in Europe for years... Joe Elliott (vocals) made up a fantasy band called 'Deaf Leopard' and the local band he joined in 1977 adopted the name and changed the spelling to Def Leppard... Pete Willis & Steve Clark (guitars) and Rick 'Sav' Savage (bass) were in the original band. Rick Allen (drums) joined at age 15 (Allen's parents had to co-sign his record contract w/ Def Leppard because he was only 16 at the time) Def Leppard came out swinging in 1980 w/ a minor hit "On through the night"... but the UK crowds were unimpressed. In America, they became conquering heroes and their 2nd album "High n' dry" became a platinum hit after Def Leppard started working w/ producer Robert John 'Mutt' Lange (who would go on to work w/ Shania Twain's biggest albums; and they were married for a while) and the band were a success on MTV which was just starting out. Unfortunately, guitarist Pete Willis was fired in 1982 because of his alcohol issues... Phil Collen (guitar) replaced him and finished recording the 3rd album 'Pyromania' in 1983 which became the 2nd biggest record in America that year (10 million copies sold) behind Michael Jackson's "Thriller". Tragedy struck Def Leppard in late 1984 when drummer Rick Allen crashed his sports car in the UK and lost his left arm when he was ejected from the vehicle. While in the hospital, Rick Allen told the band that he wanted to play drums again... so, Def Leppard loyally waited for him to work on his craft... He set up a custom-made electronic drum set that allowed him to play beats w/ his feet and 1 arm and made his return w/ Def Leppard to the stage in 1986. 'Hysteria' was Def Leppard's 4th album released in 1987 and it was slow to sell and the band was in debt from recording it... It was the single 'Pour some sugar on me' that took off in 1988 and 'Hysteria' would sell 12 million copies in the US and finally score a #1 album in the UK. Def Leppard also revolutionized the live concert experience by adopting the 'round' stage at the center of arenas (instead of at the end of the venue) while they played - it was a design Metallica would copy on their 1991 tour and beyond. But tragedy struck Def Leppard again after the 'Hysteria' tour... Guitarist Steve Clark was losing his battle w/ alcoholism and drug addiction. Def Leppard gave him some time off in 1990 to ease some of the pressure to help him recover and suspended their recording sessions... Sadly, Steve Clark died in early 1991... Def Leppard completed their 1992 album 'Adrenalize' w/ guitarist Phil Collen playing all of Steve Clark's guitar parts... They announced that Vivian Campbell (guitar) was joining Def Leppard to take Clark's spot. Despite their popularity, Def Leppard found themselves declining in record sales because of the 90's 'alternative' rock scene made them look dated and unhip... the pop-friendly 'Slang' album in 1996 only sold gold (half million copies)... 'Euphoria' (1999) also sold a half million copies... and another pop-friendly record 'X' (2002) failed to sell gold. Things started turning around in 2005 as a Def Leppard 'best of' album 'Rock of ages' renewed their popularity... In 2008, Def Leppard and a young Taylor Swift performed together on the CMT show 'Crossroads'... Def Leppard released 'Songs from the Sparkle Lounge' (2009) w/ a song 'Nine lives' featuring Tim McGraw. In 2012, Def Leppard guitarist Vivian Campbell was diagnosed w/ cancer and took time off to get treatment... The band returned in 2015 w/ the self-titled 'Def Leppard' album and were a hit across the world playing huge shows... Their latest album is 'Diamond star halos' (2022) and the band toured stadiums w. Motley Crue... they have a stadium tour w/ Journey in 2024.

Back in 2005 when Hurricane Katrina hit, Rick Savage ( bass player) put his jacket up for auction he wore it at the 1988/89 MTV Awards... it's a beautiful light blue leather jacket!!! I ended up paying $1000 USD for it!!

[@erikthompson619]

Everybody has already commented so much about Rick Allen's missing arm, so I won't say that much about it 🙂Only that the poor guy lost it on the last day of 1984, so his New Year's celebration sure took a horrible turn! If you watch Def Leppard videos from before the accident, like "Bringin' on the heartbreak", "Photograph" or "Foolin'", you'll notice that he was one of few hard rock drummers to use the traditional jazz grip, having started out as a big band drummer. This particular song was, in stark contrast, an extremely lucky accident. Def Leppard were just wrapping up an excruciating, three year long recording of their fourth album "Hysteria": including a first, costly to the literal point of millions of dollars, attempt to record it with legendary Meat Loaf producer Jim Steinman - an attempt that was ultimately scrapped in its entirety, and the band put the producer of their previous two albums, Mutt Lange, back at the helm. Anyway, eleven songs had, finally been finished and the record was all but ready to print - when Mutt Lange overheard singer Joe Elliott playing something on the guitar that he didn't recognize. Mutt asked what that was. Joe responded that it was just a new idea he was fooling aorund with. To which Mutt in turn responded that he'd better get it finished real quickly, because that WAS going on the album. To the absolute despair of the whole band, they had to get the whole song written, rehearsed and recorded at, by their standard, neck-breaking speed. But it paid off. When "Hysteria" was eventually released in August 1987, sales were initially decent but unspectacular. And the first singles were not massive hits. Which was bad news. The previous album "Pyromania" had sold a mind-boggling 10 million units and its successor could not afford to sell much less since the recording had been, as you can imagine, insanely expensive. Then "Pour some sugar on me" was released as a single - and everything changed. The song was a colossal hit and from then on album sales, and ticket sales, also started to sky-rocket. The band toured all the way into 1989 and when they had finished, they had also accomplished what not even their most devoted and optimistic fans had dared to hope for. "Hysteria" had SURPASSED the sales of "Pyromania", selling an all but unbelievable 13 million copies. To date, it has sold way over 20 million copies and ranks among the most successful releases in hard rock and heavy metal history. So that, understandably, makes Def Leppard alongside Iron Maiden the undisputed colossi of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal.

The full albun Hysteria (1987) is one of my favorite albums from Def Leppard!

[@friguy4444]

Def Leppard were one of the youngest bands to have a major record deal in history as far as hard rock groups that were not a family or a single performer. They were barely 17, 18 years old and they made their debut album "On Through the Night" which had a very minor hit on it. (I forget in even now lol) then they made their what I consider "BEST ALBUM EVER" High and Dry!" At which point they showed themselves as one of the great writers of very Hard Rock pop music as well as performers! They really stepped it up on that whole Album and tour! Then they came out with their biggest to that date break out Album "Pyromania". Which IMHO was their second best Album but most would argue their very best. Songs like "Photograph" "Rock of Ages" (No Not THAT one lol) "Foolin" "Too Late For Love" all were REALLY GREAT SONGS!! and Hits as well. I do love that album and their sound which was all them and no electronic tricks. (I mean other than studio effect on the recordings not pitch correct or digital drums or sequenced keyboards etc. Like they did for everything they did after that Hysteria and Animalize and What ever other junk they put out and made Millions from but were just a sad watered down version of their younger selves even though they weren't that old yet. LOL. But I did respect the drummer lost his arm and they were true to him and didn't throw him out then he learned how to make one arm work with some technology and relearning. Props to him!

11:35 "Now Did He Only Have One Arm,Or Did He Have It In A Sling?" In answer to your question, Donna. Rick Allen, the drummer of Def Leppard, was involved in a car accident while the band was on hiatus after wrapping up their tour from their 3rd album, "Hysteria, in which, his corvette had flipped and Rick was thrown from the vehicle,the shoulder strap of the seat belt caught his arm and took his arm off. Doctors had tried to reattach his arm, but Rick had developed an infection that had put his life at risk, so they'd had no other choice but to amputate his arm in order to keep the infection from spreading

[@jeremycates3570]

What you're seeing here on this stage is something Def Leppard they weren't the only ones to do it but they were the ones that did the most they did what was called theater in the round and basically what that is is most concerts the stage is at one end of the stadium in everybody else is directly in front. With theater in the round the stages in the middle and the band literally runs around this entire stage 360° in a circle because all of the audience is gathered around the stage in a circle it brings the audience much closer to the stage but it's a definite workout for the band because they're literally running around everywhere even the drummers portion would rotate to be a different positions throughout the songs that way everybody got a chance to see everybody. The theater and the round experience was truly epic!

Rick Allen lost his left arm on December 31st 1984 when he rolled a Corvette while on a break from recording the album that this song comes from . In 1984 the album that they had just released called Pyromaina was the #2 album in the world right behind Michael Jackson's Thriller . And when Rick Allen had his wreck . The rest of the band decided until he could come back or until he came to the rest of the band & said he couldn't do it anymore & to replace him . They decided to walk away from music . The album that Pour Some Sugar On Me comes from , still holds 2 records today . The first record it holds is , it had a total of 7 singles on Billboard's top 100 count down from August of 87 through October of 88 . The second record that it holds is , 6 out of the 7 singles from August of 87 through October of 88 on Billboard's top 100 count down were in the top 10 .

This is an awesome band from the UK. The drummer Rick lost his left arm in a car accident. xx

[@Jim_86]

That's right Rick Allen (the drummer) only got one arm. On the afternoon of December 31th 1984, Rick Allen was involved in a car crash with his then-girlfriend Miriam Barendsen (Miriam Barendsen survived the crash too) on the A57 road in the countryside a few miles west of Sheffield in England. A car in front of theirs deliberately slowed for Allen to catch up, only to speed up as he tried to pass. This went on for several miles until, in frustration, Allen accelerated to finally pass, at which point he lost control of the left-hand-drive Corvette C4, which hit a dry stone wall and entered a field. The driver of the other car then drove off. Allen's left arm was entangled in the seat belt and severed, remaining in the car while Allen was ejected from the car. Doctors initially re-attached the arm, but it was later amputated due to an infection. Initially Allen felt 'defeated' but, buoyed by 'family, friends and hundreds of thousands of letters from all over the planet', he decided to continue playing drums with Def Leppard, and adopted a specially designed electronic drum kit. The band took a hiatus from onstage performances until August 5th 1986, (Rick Allen's first live performance since losing his left arm) instead doing a small run of public rehearsal shows in Ireland in advance of their August 16th 1986 Monsters of Rock festival performance at Castle Donington in England. He has since re-adopted partially acoustic drum kits depending on the setting.

But they had so much loyalty and love for another. He said in an interview that they never asked how long it would take to heal and learn a different way of drumming. It was just said "We'll be waiting when you are ready". Such a great bunch of brother's (By heart)

Ladies you did see that right. He has only one arm. Originally he had two arms when he joined the band, some years later he lost his arm in a car accident. This is when electric drums started to come out. It took him some time to get it right and as you can see in the video he got it. The video didn't show it to much but he plays the drums with his right arm and his feet. Pretty remarkable isn't it. This is one first big hit songs on this album after his accident

The drummer has only 1 arm. He was in a motorcycle accident and lost it. He had to relearn how to play the drums and has some type of alterations to be able to perform. When I went to a concert, I loved when he would put a stick down to connect to drum and the stick would fly up…up and I don’t mean just a couple cms, I mean several feet above his head and come right down to his hand and never missed a beat. However, if it did, wouldn’t matter, right beside him were dozens of drum sticks. He sometimes threw some to the crowd after a song or a show.

Not only did they find it attractive, they would also be jealous of it. Also, liked it so much they always wanted to touch it and run their fingers through it at every opportunity. Haha! But….BUT!…. in my late 20s it started to thin out. I had recently changed to a shorter hair style as it was the early ‘00s. Knowing time was short for my hair and knowing I never ever wished to pretend otherwise….one night before going to a concert in 2002, I needed a trim. Told my girlfriend not to worry because if she messed up, we’d just shave it. She did mess up, and, while she cried, I shaved it all off for the first time and it has been that way ever since (I was 28 then. I’m 49 now). So….FYI….even great and well-loved hair is not guaranteed to last long! 😂 😁 Ya better like the dude and not his hair! Hahaha! 🙂

Fun reaction! More 80s, hair bands, please! I think you'd like female rockets! Lita Ford's" kiss 👄 me deadly", and , vixen's ". Edge of a broken ❤ heart, would be a great start! Also bands like stryper, white lion, winger, slaughter, Europe, would be terrific!❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@HRConsultant_Jeff]

They still tear it up live and they still do the curtain drop in the show. The drummer does a great long solo during the show (one armed but talented feet).

[@mikeherrmann5360]

I would suggest Saturday Hight (High & Dry) for next Def Leppard tune

[@xyxyqw]

😂what is Lulu's favorite movie? I know: "Hair"🤣🥳

[@will5801]

There is a movie called "Hysteria: The Def Leppard Story" how them a long with Rick Allen's car accident.

[@doblerjoshua]

Donna your reactions are priceless lol love it!

[@KathyLuluandDonna]

😊 thank you

[@cookiemonster1409]

😂You should know that there are 2 videos for this song, the UK had a different video where the band perform inside a building thats getting knocked down by different women as they perform With regards to Rick Allen on drums, be aware that he also plays barefoot as he says it allows him to feet the beat better

[@csbrown3]

They are as good live as they are in the studio. You've got 5 great musicians that can actually sing. And they're a lot of fun live. If you get the opportunity, see them!!

[@EricSmaug]

IVE SEEN THEM 3 TIMES LOL!!!!!

[@machfront]

I was waiting nearly the whole video till ya’ll noticed Rick Allan had only one arm by this point. Was not disappointed. Heheh. Still a great drummer. Never give up!!!!

[@billc.5861]

Yeah. Rick lost his are after their 3rd album flipping his Corvette There's videos of him with both arms and of course without As a drummer I’m so amazed by Rick’s determination, to relearn the drums using specialized footpedals and the love of his band members to wait for him.

[@paulfadeley3496]

Rick Allen known by his band mates as The Thunder God!!!!!!

[@briansmith9151]

The drummer lost his arm in a car accident. They kept him in the band and they created a special kit for him so he could keep playing.

[@Chucktsar54]

yeah he had to have his arm amputated after an accident and the band waited for him to learn how to play again on a specially made drumkit, I think foot pedals are used more👍

[@sebastiansolimando1464]

[@johnnyenglish33]

Def are from my home town sheffield in the uk, the story of Ricks accident was big news over here, he was thrown from his car but the seatbelt tensioned and took his arm off at the shoulder.
