My parents adopted a completely arbitrary love of Def Lepard when I was 22. After I left for grad school they started traveling to Def Lepard concerts like they were ****ing Dead Heads.
They never once mentioned them or listened to them when I was a kid. Then, all of a sudden, my mom is taking video of them on her phone at the Iowa State Fair.
It still confounds me.
