I've got so many pictures of Def Leppard...
 I
could fill up this site for years, so I thought I'd start with
Steve Clark as people ask for him the most.
He's one of the few
dead people I really miss. He was always embarrassed about
how much money he had. On the Hysteria tour we would always sneak
off and go drinking, mainly to Japanese restaurants. I would eat Japanese,
he would drink Japanese. I always insisted that he pay. He always did
and moaned about it. I last saw him at a Queensryche show at the Hammersmith
Odeon. He was quite pathetic--all he did was ask me for cocaine and
something to drink. He was in a world of his own with his dad
equally drunk and his new strange girlfriend he'd met at rehab.
Saying this, I do miss him. He was obsessed with Jimmy Page and
could play any riff or song in an instant. If you go and see
his grave--which I haven't done--a photo of mine is etched on
the tombstone.
As much as I liked Def Leppard, they're not as good without
him. If you think Def Leppard are a band of the past, go and
play the records he's on. They're one of life's guilty pleasures. |
