The Joe Elliott Show - Quotes
Show Intro
"Now if you listen very carefully in the background you will hear that classic sound of crickets that you hear on all those American films. You won't hear it right now because in the background of course the theme tune to the show is playing. Which is Disntegrate from Def Leppard's 1999 album Euphoria. But you'll hear it later on in the show. Just in the distance because I am in the middle of nowhere enjoying a fantastic week off from a never ending tour. Back to work next week but this week folks The Joe Elliott show is coming from a log cabin in the middle of nowhere. Fantastic stuff but we have got time to make some music. How about we make some magic with Pat Travers."
Bon Jovi
"Actually quite similar to Led Zeppelin, Jon Bon Jovi has decided to say goodbye to his record deal by putting an album out in what looks like a brown paper bag. With no lyrics, no information. What a statement that is but what a great song. The song is A Teardrop To The Sea from the album Burning Bridges by Bon Jovi."
Tesla
"And that was followed by our touring partners. Or one of because we're out with Tesla and Styx. But that was Tesla from their most recent studio album in 2014. An album called Simplicity. The song Flip Side!."
Muse
"The album is magnificent. It is called Drones. Of course the band is Muse and the song we just heard there Mercy."
Show Outro
"And that my friends all the way from a Mosquito bitten log cabin in the middle of nowhere. In, I'll say this much, the West Coast of America. Is about it for this week folks. I shall be back with you next week. back to work. Hi Ho indeed. Until then I'm gonna leave you with one of my childhood heroes. One of the best things I've ever heard in my life. From the album The Slider. This is T. Rex and Metal Guru. Until next week see ya!."
