Sun Studio Quotes

(Clara McGrath) - "Had the best time hanging out with Joe Elliott from Def Leppard at work. Super humble guy who didn’t make me feel like the “too young for this stuff” girl, even though I was telling him the history of a place he recorded at a year after I was born. Class act!"."

(Sun Studio) - "#joeelliott of @defleppard came by to hang out yesterday! The last time he was at Sun was in 1993 when the band recorded an acoustic version of Tonight after their show at the MidSouth Coliseum."

You never know who you’ll run into @VisitGraceland - Joe Elliott of @DefLeppard stopped by today! He requested “The Wonder Of You” b/c he remembers lip syncing that song in a school play. They’re playing @FedExForum tonight in Memphis. pic.twitter.com/jZw2Wbnhvk
