"Then," Collen added, "it's time for a little Def Leppard." What Collen slyly referred to is the release of a live album/DVD set from the legendary group that will include three new studio songs.

"We originally thought we could get five on there, but we settled on the three strongest ones, which I would describe like this: One is really anthemic, one is kind of like a classic Queen song and then the third is your typical Def Leppard tune, sort of along the lines of a 'Photograph,'" he revealed. "That set comes out in May, then we'll tour the United States and Europe until the end of the year. I was just talking to [lead singer Joe Elliot] about the new songs, and we think the fans will be very happy."
