Update: DEF LEPPARD To Perform On Live From Abbey Road Tonight On The Sundance Channel
August 1, 2008, 15 years ago
DEF LEPPARD's Satellite Of Love site reports:
Tonight's Live From Abbey Road episode will see an interview with Def Leppard and live performances of 'Rocket', 'C'mon C'mon', and 'Rock On'.
Episode 7 premieres tonight at 10PM (ET) on the SunDance Channel.
Hype for tonight's episode reads, "Joe Eliott starts Def Leppard's segment by explaining how the industry has changed so dramatically since the 1980s. When Def Leppard began, bands had five albums in which to prove their staying power, often not breaking through until the third or fourth. In the '90s, however, the standard procedure became to cut a band if its second release wasn't a million-seller. He theorizes that there'd be no Def Leppard if there hadn't been a third record (which was, by the way, Pyromania!). And that would be a shame, as the band makes quite clear as it fires up 'Rocket' from 1987's Hysteria."
