The Today Show - Interview Quotes
Sav - "No, I think we're as busy as we've ever been."
Sav on Rick - "That guy is an inspiration to us every day. You know when you see a guy that can get up there, plays drums with one arm in the way that he does and just get on with it. It puts everything into perspective."
Joe on the tour - "Well, we'll have a new album out by then which is fantastic. It'll be one of the first place on the planet where we actually play some of the new material. Plus all the songs everybody wants to hear you know. We've got this arsenal of songs which is a blessing really."
We caught up with Def Leppard as they prepare to embark on their Aussie tour!
