In a recent interview with the top Motley Crue fan site, new drummer Randy
Castillo mentioned Rick Allen. Here's that part of the interview:
"Chronological Crue: What year did you play Donington? Was that ’84?
Randy Castillo: That was ’87.
CC: Oh yeh, you weren’t with Ozzy until later of course.
RC: Def Leppard were on it ‘cause I remember it was Rick Allen’s return
after losing his arm. So yeh that was pretty special man. I was friends
with Rick before and he was very cool. For him to pull through like that, I
just think that was f*cking amazing. Nothing short of a miracle. That
Castle Donington experience was like unbelievable. I’m pinching myself
onstage. I’m with Ozzy and there’s like a 100,000 crazy leather jacketed
Brits man, moving in one huge… more like a heartbeat all at once. Jumping
up and down. "

"True Rocksuperstars, Def Leppard are known for such memorable hit songs as "Bringin on the Heartbreak", "Photograph", "Rock of Ages", "Hysteria", "Too Late For Love", "Animal", "Hysteria", "Foolin'", "Pour Some Sugar on Me" and more. American Sales of 1983's Pyromania, catapulted the group to the top of their genre, selling some eight million copies. Theri follow-up, 1987's Hysteria exceeded this figure with sales of 15 million.
From 1980's On Through the Night to 1992's Adreanlize to their latest Euphoria, Def Leppard have certainly earned their status as one of the world most respected and much loved rock bands. Def Leppard is Joe Elliott, Phil Collen, Rick Savage, Rick Allen, and Vivian Campbell."

"Few bands embodied the era of pop-metal like Bon Jovi. By merging Def
Leppard's loud but tuneful metal with Bruce Springsteen's working-class
sensibilities, the New Jersey-based quintet developed an ingratiatingly
melodic and professional variation of hard-rock — one that appealed as much
to teenagers as to housewives...."

Rock Singles: Def Leppard 21st Century Sha-La-La-La Girl
"It's a darn shame that the venerable hard-rock band's current collection, 'Euphoria' hasn't garnered more support. It's such a fun project, jam packed with hook-laden gems. '21st Centruy Sha-La-La-La Girl' is among the stronger cuts on the album, thanks in large part to it's playfully sexy lyrics and an arena-ready chorus that just makes you grin from ear to ear. The band plows through the track with maximum energy, underlining front man Joe Elliott's trademark vocal swagger with layers of harmonies and razorsharp guitarwork. Ok, so nothing about this single fits the narrow molds from which rock and top 40 radio are currently cast. But it's certainly as infectious (if not more so) as much of what programers are shoving down listener's throats at the moment. C'mon folks, give it a try. You're guaranteed to love it despite your so-called better judgement."

the award for "Most Unlikely Tour Package Of The Year." Power rock
punkers the Unband have scored the opening slot on the first leg of the Def
Leppard U.S. tour!!!! For those of you who haven't heard the up and
coming TVT act, they sound kinda like Motorhead meets Nashville Pussy
and are sure to scare the sh*t of he pop-metal Def lep fans. Should make
for a hilarious and rockin' tour!!! The Unband have toured with othe rmetal
acts lately as well, including Dio, Motorhead, Dokken, Great White, Anthrax
and Jackyl. The Unband's set will feature a six-foot, inflatable, mechanical
hand that can gesture at the crowd, including such classic moves as "the
finger," "metal horns," and "the peace sign." The group is touring in support
of its debut album, Retarder, which was released March 7 on TVT
Records.
Vault is on the top 50 selling Albums on The Walmart Top 50 albums rack.
