Def Leppard guitarist Phil Collen performed with the Hollywood Vampires in California on 25th July and video footage is available.

Phil joined his Delta Deep bandmate Robert DeLeo on stage to perform Alice Cooper and Pink Floyd classics.

Robert is currently touring this summer with the band who also feature Alice Cooper, Joe Perry of Aerosmith and Johnny Depp on guitar.

The show took place on 25th July at the California Mid-State Fair in Paso Robles, CA. A fair played by Def Leppard exactly one year ago today.

This was the band's final show of the summer. A number of photos were posted online which can be viewed below.

Phil and Robert also performed in the same city in January when they played a surprise Delta Deep show during their West Coast live tour.

Phil came out on stage during the encore of 'School's Out/Another Brick In the Wall'. Watch footage linked below. Phil enters the stage and is introduced by Alice at 3:14 in the first video..

Phil also guested with Alice Cooper on this song in December 2009 when Manraze supported him in the UK. This was quite possibly the only time Phil has shared the stage with Joe Perry.

In 2014 Phil joined Joe in becoming the only two musicians who have ever guested on stage with KISS.

Watch the available footage so far on this YouTube playlist.
