Another Def Leppard Live Album? New Studio Material?
"You know I think so. We record a lot of the time - we record all our shows and everything so yeah. We were actually talking about doing a part two deep cuts Mirrorball. You know with tracks that are not all the hits and everything. With just like some of the deeper stuff like Gods Of War, Women and stuff like that. So that could be cool so look out for that."
"We're releasing It's All About Believin' which was a studio cut off of Mirrorball. We're gonna have that as a single for this summer, so at least we have a song out for that. I've been writing some Def Leppard songs as well. So it's just a matter of getting everyone on the same page with that and then we can actually start recording it as well."
