The first three albums are awesome. I just listened to this song like 10 times in a row ,I love it. Try billys got a gun and stagefright they rock too.
listening to def leppard really makes me wanna bring back pure hard rock from the brink. they dont swear, they dont over do it, they have a good time and they are great performers. rock on dudes.
bands of today suck piles against these guys and many of their contemporaries, in the studio and ESPECIALLY live....why can't bands today sound like this live?!?!
92% of teenagers have turned to Hip Hop and Pop.If you are part of the 8% that still listen to real music,copy and paste this message to another 5 videos.DONTLET THE SPIRIT OF ROCK DIE!
@defleppking obviously a tv special for japan or somewhere i was also there wouldnt mind the full concert from the wapentake acoustic gig in 95 which i managed to get into only bits of that have been realeased official
@80swillnevardie its from don vally stadium in shffild many yars ago i was thr, sorry about my lttr it dont work sinc i spilt cidr on it wathing this vido . ffs df lppard ow m a nw kyboard i got ovr cxitd and spilt my fucking cidr all ovr my kyboard
ok... viv, and steve are both good... and i agree tht viv will never be steve.. but they are totally different guitarists.. steve was a soul player, viv is more technical...
Damn I'm shocked. This was a wake up call for me...I thought Leppard forgot how to rock when Steve Clarke passed away. That's what you get for only paying attention to the radio/MTV I guess. Sure, it's an older chestnut, but they're still rocking it.
Back in August of '92, my uncle got ran down on a highway outside of Phoenix, and my mom was understandably devastated.
Fast forward a few months to my birthday... I get a High 'N Dry tape, and as soon as I see this track, I had to hide it away or it'd set her off crying... Man, hard times ;(
A few months later, this tour came to town. She wanted to go, but I had this feeling that by some coincidence they would play this, so I talked her out of going... CLOSE CALL!
I was actually at this gig at Don Valley after going to Metallica in Milton Keynes the day before (and I didn't have a car then either) Best weekend of my life, and you can actually see me in the crowd in the Metallica t-shirt at about 4:42. The Lepps fucking rocked that day, and Thunder weren't bad either!!!!
idk,they should had released the whole concert. Even armageddon it at this concert has a bigger opening to it than what the one on visualize did. It opens with the song black betty.
Of course something is easy to play if you didn't come up with it. I like when people say a song is easy to play. Of course it is to you, because it has already been written. Lets see those who say a guitar part is easy come up with their own "easy" parts. It's always easy to play somebody else's work.
Thats exactly why I don't/can't talk down to any professional musician. My teacher used to always pick on C.C. Deville of Poison for being horrible, but the thing is, that guy wrote amazing simple riffs that people enjoy and he made crowds go nuts.
If you can play music and make hundreds of thousands of people scream, thats what makes a good entertainer, and thats what it's all about. Entertaining.
I agree, C.C. is know Clapton or EVH but he rocks. The Nothin' But a Good Time and Talk Dirty riffs are so catchy. I saw Poison about a month ago and they rocked. The crowd loved C.C. and he loved the crowd.
Oh and for the record a pick slide is NOT more complicated than an over the neck trill bend like Steve plays. Funny how your whole attitude changed after I knew what I was talking about. Hahahahaha
For the record, if Vivian is well known as a professional guitarist to people like Dio ect, and he gets payed millions, he's probably way better than you will ever be.
And I'm sure he knows how to do both a pick slide and an over the neck trill bend, the mans been playing guitar for more than 20 fuckin years. It really doesn't make a big difference, Steve was good, Vivian ain't bad either. He's done a damn good job filling in for a guitar legend, you should respect that.
You have the right not be a fan of Vivian, and all I'm saying is if you can't do any better, then you shouldn't criticize. Vivian is Def Leppard's new guitarist and he does his best to mimic Steve's work and maybe even put a bit of his own taste in the music. If that makes you any less of a Def Leppard fan, then you got problems.
Someone had to replace Steve Clark, he ain't comin' back. Get over it, Vivian with Def Leppard is still Def Leppard and they rule.
if Steve parts are so easy why doesn't he play it the same way? You really are an idiot huh? Never claimed to be someone famous. Joe had said recently in a interview about the new album that Vivian plays Steve parts NOTE for NOTE. and if he Vivian is so good why does DIO HATE HIM and he has been fired from every band he's been in? the opinions I have gotten are from a PROFESSIONAL guitar player tell me do you play because he just told me you have no idea what you're talking about.
Well moron The whole highlight of that solo is the over the neck trill bend into the solo and all Viv did was a cheap pick slide. So if he can't even play the part right he is no good guitarist. Dick
and I'll be more than happy to enjoy my Steve Clark land the music is better there. Enjoy your band The HAS BEENS. Their time has come and gone. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
oh yes figures you haven't done your research. Viv does that bit now on this song live. Their different guitar players and have different interprations of solo's, viv isn't not going to play everything note for note everytime.
Yeah Leppard are has beens.....and you are who?
Oh and guess what, Vivian admits that Steve's parts are very easy and he has had to tone down his guitar chops in leppard. The version that viv plays here is more complicated than the one on the album. That's fact.
Brings back memories of banging my head in Seattle in the early 80s. "High and Dry" with Pete Willis is Leppards best. Boy, this album, Saxon's "Wheels of Steel", Krokus, Scorps, Maiden? Brings back memories. Thanks for sharing.
cool. I didn't think there existed a dvd the whole show. I've got the songs that are on video archive, and this one is not on there. god he's got the whole stadium going to a song off high n' dry!!! amazing. thanx for uploading.
They played Another Hit and Run, Wasted, Switch 625 and Mirror Mirror(look into my eyes) they sounded AMAZING. I don't get what the fuck your talking.
Oh and on their new upcoming album is the heaviest song they've ever recorded. Heard it last night, it's called 'Go'. Metallica meets Rob Zombie meets Nine inch nails meets pyro era leppard. Not kidding
Yeah and you wouldn't know amazing if it bit you in the ass. Their new album sucks and they only rocked with Steve Clark. The Lepps suck. Now they sound like a boy band oh yeah they rock hahahahaha
Def Leppard do not play any of their best songs anymore. They just play the 'vagina monologue' music they have put out since High and Dry. Pete Willis gave this band a sack. I saw them on their last tour, and it was very sad. They all need testosterone shots, ASAP.
The first three albums are awesome. I just listened to this song like 10 times in a row ,I love it. Try billys got a gun and stagefright they rock too.
