Las Vegas Review-Journal - The Joe Elliott Interview Quotes

Vegas Production

"You can’t just come into Vegas with a rock rig and think that you can get away with it, you know?."

"You’ve got to just buy into the fact that it’s going to be a slightly over-the-top production, and we grew up on those."

Vegas Opening Night

"It’s funny, I was watching a clip from ‘Die Hard (The Hunter)’ on my iPhone this morning, I’m looking at it, and I’m going, well this was my first gig in my 60’s, and I’m looking at the way that most people see us.. There’s an energy you can see. We don’t look exactly the same as 30 years ago, but we certainly don’t look like we’re tired. I don’t want to call it a youthful energy, but it’s youthful mentally, at least. When we get up on stage, we’re still 18 years old."
