Joe was listed as a special guest along with The Bradford Citadel Salvation Army Band.
Def Leppard have played four times in Bradford. Twice in 1980, once in 1981 and for the last time in October 2003 during the second X/Ten UK tour at Alhambra Theatre.

The Joe Elliott Show - 16th December 2017 Quotes
"And I'm not just playing it because I love it. I played it because last night, along with 'Up The Pool' and bits of 'Locomotive Breath', I performed that song with Ian Anderson in Bradford Cathedral to raise some much needed money for some church restoration. A good thing to do just before Christmas don't you think."

Ian Anderson @jethrotull and guests was a great night enjoyed by all. A meow of thanks to them for bringing the show and helping raise funds for Foundation 2020. Afterwards @BishopPaulB and @tremlett_andrew chatted to Ian and the Reverend George Pitcher in the Chapter House. pic.twitter.com/dv2t5sghmU
