I'm sad this is in the Classic Rock section (which I didn't notice until today). Def Leppard was great for about a decade. Lyrically no, but the musicianship kicked butt, with maybe an unmatched layer of sound. Unfortunately, from what I've seen from recent televised live performances, Joe Elliot's voice is shot. Although people say it's rebounded a bit thanks to quitting smoking.

I have their appearance at the Reading Festival in 1980 somewhere.
They were pretty good back then.

I'd sooner listen to Van Halen than to Def Leppard.

I thought you were a huge Def Lep fan?
I used to love Van Halen, now I think they are more hilarious. That "Tattoo" song is bloody awful. Should have never reformed. With material like that, is it worth it? At least a song like "Hot for Teacher" had a fun kinda of stupidity to it. Which is about all Van Halen was, fun stupidity. But they get boring fast.
