Def Lepppard was the first band I saw in concert..I was 13..some guy handed me a open bottle of Jack Daniels..Joe stopped the show took the bottle had a guard hand me a Pepsi then climbed on the crowd for having booze and drugs around us kids.. He told the audience to keep that shit in the back.. Then when he saw some guy copping a feel on another girl and her screaming no and stop he had the guy booted from the show... It's no act he meant business... DL is a class act...
yes, no act. I saw them in 2000 in Salem Oregon..there was a sound ordinance they weren't aware of. her told everybody the cops were back stage ready to arrest them if they played their music loud! told us if they had known they would play there. instead of canceling, he told everybody to get as f-ing loud as they wanted..which we did. they came out for 3 encores. told everybody to go get a refund..That they'll NEVER play there again.
I've seen them from very first high & dry tour and haven't missed one yet! Love love love them. Gained so much respect when they didn't replace and waited for Rick to not only heal, but to learn to play 1 handed amazing
ronnierhino100 what's a Yorkshire man mean?! I'm American and would like to know is that a touch part if England? In a Southern and proud it's the best area and culture in the US. I do regret not seeing this band back in the 80s when I was a teenager God bless you and yours
@@annaleonardi6299 Yorkshire is a very large and subdivided county in the North of England. It consists of North Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, East Yorkshire and West Yorkshire. Def Leppard are from Sheffield, South Yorkshire. Joe was born and raised there. People from that part of England are known to be very friendly and open but they take no nonsense from anyone and are very blunt. Joe embodies this character. You should go there someday.
Agree, just don't go. Didn't see the big beer thrower come on stage as invited. Those kind never do/would. Now we call them internet trolls, hiding under their Ipad. Still assholes.
The reality is some asshole screwing up the show and Joe doing something about it. That's caring about the fans. Like he said...We don't want to bring it down. We want to bring it up.
These guys are a great band and they don't deserve that or any kind of cruelty. try to calm down Joe and all of you its not worth it hopefully that whoever the jerk never came back I love you guys and I would never throw anything at you except my compliments about being strong and sticking together through the going and bad times I'm going through a tough time myself and would give anything to just try to reach out to you somehow
DL is a class act period. I had the opportunity of meeting and getting to know them all during the Hysteria tour. they are a bunch of sweet hearts and it was an honor working for them. RIP Steve "Steaming" Clark. They put up with a lot while on tour, so respect is something I totally understand why he would want. Not to mention Beer bottles filled hurt when they hit you.
I did area promos before foot sobers took place. I also made sure the record stores and radio stations had what they needed ...I.e. posters, any give away, things to help promote what single was coming out at the time. when I was on the roade with them for three weeks I just made sure they were comply and hung out with Steve and Phil.
Wow that sounds like an interesting job, I have worked for Metallica in the past 96 to 97 world tour also several other artists from 1999 to 2005 as a flight crew member...def miss that job
It's funny cuz regardless of what Mr. Joe Elliot has ever done and/or said? I jest can't help but adore the man for ALWAYS saying/doing EXACTLY what's on his mind without caring about what ANYBODY thinks about it!! And personally?? I just HAVE to give him props EACH & EVERY TIME he does so
Axl Sprowls that was a mistake on his part actually. he probably was too hyped up from the show back then, to think twice before saying that i believe ☺️ he wouldn’t have done it if he just thought about it
@@eldoabrahamson Oh yeah? Someone throws something at you on stage, and you don't have everyone whoop his ass because you are Joe Elliot, you think he didn't handle it?? Should he have pointed him out and told the audience to pull his arms and legs off?? Are you inebriated regularly?
+Maverikk68 Doubt that he'd have needed security to help unless the guy had a weapon, and no, not a cup of beer... Manchester, remember???? living there ain't exactly the lap of luxury you know! I DOUBT he'd hesitate to fight, as angry as he was working himself up to be... Assholes that do stuff like that-- WHY do they buy tickets??? Especially and get THAT close to the stage??? All their brains are in the bottle... Joe would have kicked his a--! -WITHOUT security!
Joe is the fighter of the band. Very professional and protective of the band ! But don't take kindness for weekness! Their is a lion on stage lol Absolutely Amazing ❤❤
Joe you are going to probably get an ulcer yourself if you don't calm down Don't let these jerks upset you its not worth it just if you don't have it already get some heavy security or bodyguards whatever you need to stay calm cool and collected
Just focus on what you all do best and next time either kick the person or people out of your shows or call the police And Joe calm down before you have a heart attack or something lf I was at 1 of your shows l would never do anything mean to you guys because I love you guys and I want to see you guys perform live please if you can please download the CD Adrenlize and then maybe l can listen to this album on my phone too
All I can say is, if I pay my money to see a show, I not only respect the right of others to enjoy it and expect the same in return!!! I went to see Trixter, Great White and Kiss back on Revenge tour, I think '92. There were 2 couples right in front of us and they were all messed up, first they started by spilling beer on my brother and I several times, then decided to stand up, so we were unable to sit in our seats and enjoy the show, but that's to be expected so we just stood up to watch. They continued to spill there beer on us and everyone else around them, so during intermission I nicely asked one of the guys to please control the beer, all he could say was fuck you we paid our money and we are gonna party!!! When Great White came out they not only continued to spill the beer, they stood on their seats, which were like theater seats that fold up when you stand, so now we can't see while standing, so I ask them to get down I paid my money to see a show and I wasn't going to do it standing on my seat!!! He again said fuck you!!! Well the 2 rows in front of them were now empty because the people asked to move, so being the gentleman I am, I did what he asked and fucked him, I pushed his ass off his seat and over two rows of empty seats, grabbed the other guy and pulled him over backwards and explained to him that I would have no problem taking my ticket price outta his ass!!! When security came to find out the problem, they took us out to the common area and asked what was going on, I said the drunk asses were standing in their seats and the one guy fell and I grabbed the other guy to keep him from falling too, by this time the folks sitting behind us came out and pretty much agreed, so they took old boy that fell to first aid and the rest followed. Never heard or seen them again till we left and they had moved them to a different section and made them sit down for the rest of the show!!! I guess if I was standing beside the guy that threw the beer at Joe, I would have just clocked his dumb ass and let him lay there on the floor and had a good time!!! I HATE ASSHOLES!!!
I worked at a concert venue or two in Saint Louis, it was a 2500 seat venue, but, we had great security! anyone flipping shit to others were told, and then escorted out. I don't know if that happens anymore, I don't work there.
Respect Joe Elliot he is the Legend the Awesome voice behind The Legendary 80’s Rock N Roll Band Def Leppard my favorite 80’s Rock N Roll Band Respect to Joe Elliot & Phil Collin & Rick Savage & Rick Allen & Vivian Campbell & of course Steve Clark
Next time someone does something like that call security or police whatever you have to do to get rid of that kind of people like I said in at least 1 or 2 of my comments you guys are an inspiration to me and I'm sure tons of other people don't let the bad get to you You're too special a band to just give up which hopefully you won't do
I would piss me off if I saw someone throw anything at a band! Wouldn't the crowd kick their ass?!! Don't be throwing shit! Want all the fans to jump on ya all at once?
I've been to many of their concerts love them don't throw things at them or anyone it can hurt them empty or not just watch the show if you can't drink and control yourself you shouldn't be there and try to ruin it for those of us that paid to watch a good show and that don't drink or act like that stay home then. Just my opinion as a fan of Def Leppard since 1983.
I was there. It was a tough crowd as there were a lot of motley crew fans there who did not seem interested in def leppard. Think it was probably a motley crew person who threw beer as a genuine def leppard fan would not do this. Motley crew were the support band. Was good to see them but it was the toughest crowd they have had in glasgow and I have seen them in concert in every concert there since 1996. Normally a lot more crowd participation.
They certainly did rock America and Canada in the 80's - they gained massive popularity after release of the Pyromania album in 1983, but made little impact by comparison in the UK. It wasnt until 4 years later with the Hysteria album that they achieved equal success in the UK. I first became a fan in 1984, seeing them live for the first time at the start of the Hysteria tour in September 87.
Way to go, Joe! This reminded me so much of the video of Journey onstage in ‘83, where Steve Perry went OFF on a guy for throwing a beer bottle on the stage, nailing Neal Schon in the head! Perry gave the guy one verbal ass kicking, just as Joe did here! Neal had blood dripping down the side of his face as he played the next song. It’s on Journey’s Frontiers and Beyond documentary if anyone’s interested.
I just went to see these guys in april of 2015 with my mom for an early B-Day present and when we bought drinks they took the caps off and gave the bottles to us. we asked why and she said cause people throw them on stage, yet people could easily throw the empty bottle. but Im happy, none of that happened and everyone was just into it so much
Well said. Steve was special, very very special. But I'm very glad that Vivian found a home with Leppard. He is a great guitarist and I'll bet that gre99y likes Dio so I'd remind him his best songs are with Vivian playing guitar.
I agree with what you said, but in this case the beer was in plastic pint containers. I was going to call it a plastic glass, which although is the correct terminology, it seems confusing. lol Absolutely no glass allowed anywhere in the arena....that would just be asking for trouble.
That was Awesome,,,,,, Def Leppard is my all time Fav band. How dare the guy try to disrespect anyone from Leppard, sheesh!! Way to go Joe, keep on rockin guys!
I was gonna say it was probably Dorito boy but didn't realize he said it already until I listened to this version of the incident. The guy was probably very lucky Joe didn't get down off the stage and womp on his arse. I don't know, humiliating the guy was probably alot more fun. Notice the guy didn't have the balls to take Joe up on his offer to come up and face him.
I don’t endorse fist fights but I am pretty sure if someone messed with Joe, Phil would easily back him up. Phil has been training in martial arts for the last 25 years.
You are taking my comment far too literal my friend. Of course i know what the true definition of the word gentleman is. To explain why the person threw the beer at Joe, and most likely why there are currently 5 dislikes of this video......This was a co-headlining tour between Motley Crue and Def Leppard. The offending person was obviously a Motley Crue fan with a dislike of Leppard, so rather than go home after seeing The Crue, he hung around to cause trouble. Personally i love both bands.
I was stood just to the right of Joe at the Gig when he got annoyed;...and quite rightly so. I hate Beer throwing at Gigs and the Guy throwing it was lucky he wasn't stood next to me cos I would've walloped him never mind Joe. The Leps have been round the block so many times they know how to handle this kinda stuff.....and Joe handled it EXACTLY the same as Lemmy did at Donington 1986 when somebody threw something really heavy at him.
@SpudAlmighty I noticed quite a few people around me taking videos - above, below, and to the side....so you might not be thinking of the right person. Then again..you could be. :-)
Oh my god I give joe props! That was fucking intense! I would have gone all Axl Rose on that shit. But joe is one hell'ova Englishman. I just love it when Englishman swear. It's just hot!
Love it! Joe doesn't take any crap. I saw them at a "Molson's blind date" many years ago where there were two levels of audience and some dickwad threw a shot glass on the stage and it shattered. Joe said something like he was gonna come into the crowd and rip the guys head off and shove it up his ass. It was awesome.The "blind date" part meant that the performers were a surprise for the audience and it wasn't entirely a Lepp friendly crowd but one of the greatest nights ever for me...

Wow, cool to have authority around killing the vibe even at a show (the GD BAND nonetheless) ?? Think for yourself, make your own choices.
Joe may be a rock superstar but he's still a Yorkshireman, he'll have you!
Yes, he's not one to piss off

Almost entered into "Gordon Ramsay" territory!
XD
0:12 did no one notice their was a beer bottle being thrown
Andrew Garfield that was a bra :)
If you do not like the band, do not go! Throwing beer at them is just puerile.
It's always Glasgow. Meant to be seeing them on Thursday but can't get it off work. To everyone that's going to see them, have a blast!
wow. he got pissed. attaboy joe. get him
Jeez, Phils lookin pretty buff for 57(!) (Note to self: do more pushups!)
Andybaby Two words: Coconut. Oil.
I would piss me off if I saw someone throw anything at a band! Wouldn't the crowd kick their ass?!!
Don't be throwing shit! Want all the fans to jump on ya all at once?
Yeah never throw a beer at Joe Elliot
A Sheffield bloke swearing in American at a Glaswegian
go on Joe tell em ,I come from that part of the world also Yorkshire and been a rock gig of there's in Sheffield and they rocked the town
You tell him joe!!! Never seen joe that pissed.
This is a great video, no matter how old it is
Thank you. I remember it just like it was yesterday.
haha the person taking this video was sitting right above me!
This is why Joe is the Lion King of Def Leppard.
I've been to many of their concerts love them don't throw things at them or anyone it can hurt them empty or not just watch the show if you can't drink and control yourself you shouldn't be there and try to ruin it for those of us that paid to watch a good show and that don't drink or act like that stay home then.

It was a bad crowd. Bunch of puffy haired slappers in spandex 5 sizes too small. Not the usual Leppard lot. Great gig though.
My FAVORITE band in the world EVER. Hope Viv makes a full recovery too, da leps have had enough tragedy and shit happen.
wow, you can really hear Sav in this, great. Wonderful melodies still :) love these guys, see them every summer!
" Coz I got the fucking microphone , ASSHOLE "
Loved it
funny , YOU TELL HIM JOE
Think he was just a bit upset that motley crue wiped the floor with Leppard that night.
WTG Joe! Another good vibe song!
If this was Axl Rose, he would've thrown a hissy fit and stormed off the stage, pissing off all of his fans and causing a riot.
Joe is awesome.

He would have ran away, and let his bodyguards deal with it.
Yes don't mess with big joe
Im American and i love them so much...whats all the fuss between americans and brits...we r friends
That went from 0-100 really fast.
I bet "whatever the f*** it was" got the point. LMFAO. You go Joe!!!!
Go on Joe, you F tell him 😂😂
YOU TELLEM!!!
Def Leppard is the band, I became a fan back when I was in the service, back in 80, I love all their songs.
BTW--- Two Stepw Behind: ♥♥♥♥
Joe Elliott showing his Axl Rose side. 😂
Nope he's a 'Sheffielder' from Sheffield England that lad! :) Hard follks those but 'good un's all the same!

Jesus how many picks does Sav go through in a show?
2 steps behind def leppard
Lol the fact the guy pissed him off so much just proves Joe got destroyed by a little beer.
Well in all fairness, would you be ok if some cunt through a pint of Beer all over you??
Joe is such a badass!!
That's a fact...never to be messed with
Joe Elliott is awesome!
A real class act these guy's
I agree with what you said, but in this case the beer was in plastic pint containers.

I have never heard Joe E curse before and yea he right all the crap that band been through a beer to the face isn't crap .
right on! u tell 'em joe !
I wouldn't want to piss off Joe Elliot, he looks like a big guy
Yes he is...Joe Elliott stands at 6 ft 2
That was Awesome,,,,,, Def Leppard is my all time Fav band. How dare the guy try to disrespect anyone from Leppard, sheesh!! Way to go Joe, keep on rockin guys!

The offending person was obviously a Motley Crue fan with a dislike of Leppard, so rather than go home after seeing The Crue, he hung around to cause trouble.
Personally i love both bands.
Yes it would be a lie for 2 reasons -
1. British only has one t.
2. "Gentlemen" dont start rock bands. ;-)
I was stood just to the right of Joe at the Gig when he got annoyed;...and quite rightly so. I hate Beer throwing at Gigs and the Guy throwing it was lucky he wasn't stood next to me cos I would've walloped him never mind Joe. The Leps have been round the block so many times they know how to handle this kinda stuff.....and Joe handled it EXACTLY the same as Lemmy did at Donington 1986 when somebody threw something really heavy at him.
@SpudAlmighty
I noticed quite a few people around me taking videos - above, below, and to the side....so you might not be thinking of the right person. Then again..you could be. :-)
I'm thinking he needs anger management you can always call security or the highest authority to kick the people who cause trouble out of the way
Joe Elliott for prez!
Hahaha! Joe is just savage. Dorito Boy😂
😂😂😂😂 that was awesome!
Go Joe.
Oh my god I give joe props! That was fucking intense! I would have gone all Axl Rose on that shit. But joe is one hell'ova Englishman. I just love it when Englishman swear. It's just hot!
Joe Elliott really scares me.
I wish i went to that gig
Why would you throw a glass bottle at anyone? Could do some serious damage man. They r human beings y'know.
Id love to see some pic or a video of your guitars. I, on the other hand, was influenced by Phil. I have somewhere around 20 Jacksons and 7 Charvels.
WOW I forgot this song, til just now.
I fucking LOVE JOE!!
Love it! Joe doesn't take any crap. I saw them at a "Molson's blind date" many years ago where there were two levels of audience and some dickwad threw a shot glass on the stage and it shattered. Joe said something like he was gonna come into the crowd and rip the guys head off and shove it up his ass. It was awesome.The "blind date" part meant that the performers were a surprise for the audience and it wasn't entirely a Lepp friendly crowd but one of the greatest nights ever for me...
