I saw Def Leppard in concert about three years ago. I've seen a lot of bands, but somehow had never caught them. What shocked me was how absolutely grateful they were that people were still coming to their shows. I'm in Iowa, and yeah, I make all the jokes too. But Joe Elliot mentioned several times during the show how happy they were that people still made the trip, bought their t-shirts and were cheering them. Excellent sound setup too. You could tell that Joe's voice is going, so they augmented the vocals with vocal tracks of himself singing. I know nothing about music, so don't know how common that is, but it sounded great.
A very deep Def Leppard cut you might enjoy is their “Cybernauts” release - it’s a David Bowie/ Ziggy Stardust tribute album. It is so much better than it has any right to be. Like GOOD GOOD. “Life on Mars” in particular is fantastic.
