Phil Collen, lead guitarist of the legendary band Def Leppard, will discuss and sign his new memoir, Adrenalized: Life, Def Leppard, And Beyond on Monday, October 19th at 7 PM, at Barnes & Nobel - Huntington Beach (California). He'll be joined by his co-author Chris Epting for a Q&A session.  

This is a wristband event. Wristbands will be distributed beginning at 9 AM on October 19th with the purchase of Adrenalized. Please call 714.897.8781 for more details.

Adrenalized: Life, Def Leppard, And Beyond, written with veteran journalist and author Chris Epting and scheduled for publication on October 27th, is the first book written by a member of the group that holds claim to being one of only five rock bands with two original studio albums selling over 10 million copies in the US.

Featuring personal, never-before-seen photos of Collen and his band mates on stage and off, Adrenalized is a fascinating account of the failures, triumphs, challenges, and rock-hard dedication it takes to make dreams come true.

"It's fascinating for even me to look back at my life from working in a factory at 16 years old to eventually traveling the world selling over one hundred million records and all the experiences that come with that journey,” Collen says. “I realize that there is a constant evolution of 'me' that is still a work in progress even as I continue to be vital and dynamic in my same occupation for the past 35 years well into my late fifties."

Def Leppard's new album is to be released as a Classic Rock Fanpack on October 30th. The Fanpack will include the CD (including an exclusive bonus track), a 116-page magazine featuring all-new interviews with all five band members, all-new photos and a track-by-track guide to the album, a series of collectable art cards, and a metal Def Leppard keyring. The album will also be available as a double-vinyl edition, while the regular CD will be released on November 27th.

The Fanpack is available to pre-order now. Orders placed before 12 PM (GMT) on Thursday, October 1st will receive an exclusive window sticker featuring the Def Leppard album artwork, and be entered into a draw to win one of three pairs of VIP tickets aboard Def Leppard's Hysteria On The High Seas cruise, which departs from Miami in January next year.
