You can add Def Leppard guitarist Phil Collen to the list of musicians who claim to have no interest in whether they're ever inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
On March 22, Def Leppard will begin a three-week residency at Las Vegas' Hard Rock Hotel & Casino that will see them perform the 'Hysteria' album in its entirety. In a new interview, guitarist Phil Collen talks about the challenges of playing their biggest album in Sin City.
Def Leppard are back in the spotlight this summer, due in part to the upcoming film ‘Rock of Ages.’ The movie, an adaptation of the stage production, borrows its name from the Def Leppard classic song, but licensing issues kept the song itself out of the Broadway show. It’ll be included in the movie, though, and guitarist Phil Collen says the band has given their full stamp of approval.
