The Joe Elliott Show - Quotes
Show Intro
"Hello everyone. Welcome to the Joe Elliott show right here on the wonderful Planet Rock. It is always a pleasure to be with you and I have some fantastic music lined up for you today. All the way from Tampa, Florida. Not so much of a secret location after all is it. The Def Leppard tour starts in a couple of days time. We're here doing rehearsals. I have left my safe European home. Nice cue for The Clash."
Geordie/Brian Johnson
"I had a nice little chat with Brian Johnson the other day and not once did he say 'Ahh c'mon speak up me son. I can hardly hear ya'. So I'm guessing that his hearing must be getting better. And there he was in his original band Geordie with one of their big hit singles All Because Of You from way back in the early seventies."
