DEF LEPPARD Facebook Fan Q And A At 8PM EST (USA) Tonight

Def Leppard 2018

Def Leppard members will take part in a live Q and A session from Melbourne, Australia live on Facebook tonight.

The band were unveiled as one of the 2019 nominees on 9th October for the first time having been eligible since 2005.

The band will take part in the live session tonight at 8pm EST (USA) - 1am in the UK.

The event is being billed as a promotion for the Rock Hall nomination.

The band are currently in Melbourne, Australia and later tonight they will play another Hysteria & More tour show at Rod Laver Arena with Scorpions in support.

Joe recently commented on the nomination to Forbes - read his comments again below.

In other interviews Joe has said his choice for who will induct them would be Brian May from Queen (who introduced them at the Hollywood Rock Walk in September 2000).

The Fan Vote takes place between 9th October to 9th December - VOTE HERE

After 30 days of voting the band are now up to 350,000 plus votes and lead Stevie Nicks by over 55,000. Usually all of the top five in this fan vote get inducted as they did last year.

Forbes - Joe Elliott Interview Quotes

Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame

"And then all of a sudden the fans get involved and then we become interested because it literally is about the important people in our lives, which is our audience. And even though, as we all know, the fan voting is one vote our of a thousand votes or whatever it's the one vote the other 999 can't help but take notice of because it's all over the world. It's in every magazine, on every website, every radio station."

Who Would induct Def Leppard?

"We haven't even thought about it. You're the first person who's brought it up. It's the first time I've actually thought about who we would have induct us because we've been nominated, we're not in. If and when that thing comes in, whatever day you hear in December, that's when we'll sit down and go, "Alright, who do we hope we could get to do it."
