Def Leppard’s Joe Elliott says of his band’s 2020 tour plans, “What a year this is going to be! First, sold out stadiums, then we get to go on tour with the mighty ZZ Top! Having been an admirer of the band for a lifetime it’s gonna be a real pleasure to finally do some shows together…maybe some of us will get to go for a spin with [ZZ Top’s] Billy [Gibbons] in one of those fancy cars.”

Adds Gibbons, “We’re excited about hitting the road with Def Leppard this fall; we’ve been fans of theirs since forever…Joe Elliott is always welcome to ride ‘shotgun’ with us and we won’t even ask him to pay for the gas.”
