Def Leppard is no longer good, they're older and haven't adapted to change, Steven Tyler from Aerosmith has been smart enough to keep himself marketable.
Besides when it comes to rock - most went from Motorhead to LA Guns then to Metallica - then Ministry and then took off onto the road less traveled listening to other artists such as Primus, Overkill, Fugazi The Butthole Surfers, etc etc.. I had a hard problem not turning my head on that Ratt sound, once 1988 passed, quite honestly. Though I had it at the time, Out of the Cellar was a great piece of work, back then. Most never could convert, Bon Jovi - laugh all you want, was one that could self-market himself throughout time. I think the ear needs to get away from that style of rock - it's ok to reminisce too - or whatever, but that style won't be considered 'classic' for about 7 or 8 more years, then at that time a re-visit MAY be necessary, but it may even be longer than that. I can give the rockers shit - they give the people who like hip hop and breakbeat shit all of the time. Besides I still like some rock, but usually the road less traveled. |

Yeah, WM is a very cool company and definitely has carved out a niche for itself in the marketplace. He hooked Corbin Bernsen up with some dank at some point, he said all he wanted to do was yell "Dorn!" the entire time he was around him. Guess Bernsen was pretty much a prick to work with.

the people who still look for Def Leopard are the same folks that rent only Barbara Dare VHS tapes for their porn night.

that's fine... like what you like - I'm tired of caring. There's like three or four people that like my style of music on here, Zooted Granny - Reaper (at times) and maybe KC United, Ultra Peanut so I really have no voice w/ my take... my tastes are very peculiar.
