Suddenly cool, and the feeling's not familiar
Cool and Def Leppard have been mutually exclusive throughout much of the veteran British band's 22 years. During the summer of '83, Def Leppard's breakthrough album, "Pyromania," catapulted the band into rock's upper echelon, but you were asking for it if you wore Union Jack outwear, which members did onstage.
"Are we blowing it?" asked Elliott with a laugh. "We don't care. As long as our fans show up, we're quite content."
Q. How did you guys go from being uncool to kind of cool?
