I'm not a big fan of Def Leppard, but, they are huge in the rock world. Are they rock like Ozzy or Godsmack or Metallica? No. But rock features all kinds of textures. Hard, crunchy, smooth, soft, poppy etc. Def Leppard falls into the pop rock category for sure.
And I've seen many many shows in my career, and Def Leppards shows are amazing, not because of them so much, or even their performance. Their shows are amazing because of the crowd. They are singing every song, loudly and really enjoying every moment. It's quite the scene.
But, I am not a fan really. I'm a radio programmer/on air talent that respects the foundation of the format I work in. Joe Elliot is a legend in rock, whether you like the band or not. And for me, and my career, today was a highlight. Ozzy was a highlight as was James Hetfield and the ultimate was Robert Plant. And ow Joe Elliott. Plus the dude was cool. Very cool. Some artist, not nearly as big in the music world are one who sucks the peniss, but he was incredibly approachable. Ozzy was as well.
It's days like today that I feel grateful for what I do and know I'm a very lucky woman.
And to Simply Red, I thought you were insulting me. If you weren't, my apologies.
