That was fucking awesome!! From the first note I knew it was going to be great. And kudos to the Stern show for making sure the sound was spot on. Excellent interview Howard ! I heard this live, no one does it like H.S.

Amazing sound from the awesome Def Leppard

[@ziapsp4167]

Dam..always thought Def Leppard needed to be mixed in the studio to get their sound...I guess I was wrong.

[@nicestrat]

Been listening to Def Leppard since their first album came out ( On Through the Night ), wore out Hi 'n Dry in high school, and listened to Pyromania on my Sony Walkman at ski school every Saturday back in 1983. Also, my first concert ( 1983 ) as well. They opened for Billy Squier at the Seattle Center Coliseum. Good times for me! A few bad times for the band. Glad they have kept it going.

[@nicestrat]

You know a good band when you know every bandmate's name!

[@seanvierra3865]

Joe Elliot playing the telecostic. Beautiful

Def Leppard sure has their share of gems and puts on a great concert. Hard to touch Bowie though, but good job nonetheless.

[@rubicon-oh9km]

He's shaking a fucking shaker. You'd look bored too! LOL

[@Shitsthebed]

Been attending concerts since 1977 and they are easily the worst live band that I ever saw, twice.
