DEF LEPPARD performed last night (Monday, June 4th) on The Tonight Show With Jay Leno. The Tonight Show airs on NBC TV at 11:35 EST. The episode is available for streaming below:

Attention Deficit Delirium's Bryan Reesman has issued an interview with Def Leppard's Phil Collen, in which he talks the Rock Of Ages play/film. An excerpt follows:

Q: The intro to the musical has the voice of DAVID COVERDALE advising people not to sing the lyrics to Def Leppard’s 'Pyromania' in case of fire because the show couldn’t get the rights to any of the band’s songs. Did the producers approach you about that originally? And if so, why did you change your mind for the movie?

A: "I think the play is great, and I think we are going to be in the play. It went through the legal things, but they hadn’t got it sorted out in time [when] the play was going up, although it was the title of one of our songs. They didn’t get it ready in time, and with the movie it’s a whole different set of rules. They actually went through all the proper channels, and everything got sorted out. Payment got sorted out beforehand. I do believe they are going to revisit the play after the movie comes out. If it’s a success, they’ll add more stuff in it [the show], and we’re totally up for that. I’d even be up for actually being in the house band for awhile, which would be hilarious. I think it would be great fun."
