Def Leppard members Joe Elliott and Phil Collen took part in a release day Q and A via Periscope tonight and the video is available.

They answered many fan questions via a live broadcast on the Periscope video app.

Watch the 22 minute video - HERE on YouTube (a newly posted video).

The video link lasted for just under 30 minutes. Not many newsworthy things but some good humour and great answers. Including Joe calling Sav a "ponce".

One little thing of note is Phil confirmed the title of the Delta Deep Christmas single - see his answer below.

Joe also revealed some of the backing vocals recorded on tour for the new album were done in Uncasville - for 'Let's Go'. And the band will play two new songs live on the Japanese leg of the tour - "possibly" more in the UK.

Phil also brought up the joke Christmas song the band recorded in 1995 during the Slang album sessions. Once referred to by Vivian as "Heavy Metal Christmas".

Phil Collen - Interview Quote

"Delta Deep just recorded a song called 'Take Me Home For Christmas'. That we're actually gonna release - just before Christmas!. But Def Leppard did do a Christmas song once - A Very Metal Christmas. So we actually had this song, we was doing the Slang album, and it was left over and Joe wrote these lyrics. And we could never listen to the song again. For about 12 years because it was tarnished - because it was a comedy song."

Joe - "And if it ever leaks on to the internet I will kill you."

Phil - "Absolutely. I won't sneak it out honestly."
