Phil Collen - 26th August 2016 Interview Quotes
"What was really cool. I mean we actually just recorded one of the shows just a few weeks ago. We was live in Detroit and we're putting a DVD out.
And you know I don't usually get a chance to see the show. You know unless I'm like turning around and catching a little look here and there."
"But we had to approve all the images and the sound and everything. The mix and it looked amazing. The show's amazing. So that's another
thing we still have coming out. I'm not sure of the exact date of it at the moment. But Def Leppard Live In Detroit should be a DVD coming out at some point.
And it looks spectacular."

Most recently, their 2015 self-titled album featured singles “Dangerous” and “Let’s Go” which premiered via RollingStone.com and hit #1 on the Billboard Top Rock Albums Chart.
Filmed at the DTE Energy Music Theatre in Clarkston, MI, And There Will Be A Next Time – Live From Detroit is an incredible showcase that captures the electrifying energy and power of Def Leppard live today. As the sun began to set over a frenzied Detroit crowd, Def Leppard’s legendary hooks and anthemic rock served up an audiovisual feast second to none. The audience were served hit after hit with fan favorites from across their iconic career.
Said front man Joe Elliott: “I had this idea that we should film one of the shows from the 2016 tour because apart from the ‘Viva Hysteria’ shows, we hadn’t actually had a live performance filmed since 1988. With a new album out that was being so well received, it was just a case of where to do it. From the second the house lights went down, we could see the sun setting from the stage, and the energy from the crowd just seemed to intensify. It was a good choice and a great way to document Def Leppard in 2016.”
As a bonus, the DVD set will include the official music videos for “Let’s Go”, “Dangerous,” and “Man Enough,” and the lyric video for “Let’s Go.”
