About the tour, Def Leppard singer Joe Elliott said:
“What a year this is going to be! First, sold out stadiums, then we get to go on tour with the mighty ZZ Top! Having been an admirer of the band for a lifetime, it’s gonna be a real pleasure to finally do some shows together. … Maybe some of us will get to go for a spin with Billy in one of those fancy cars.”
ZZ Top’s Billy Gibbons also talked about it:
“We’re excited about hitting the road with Def Leppard this fall; we’ve been fans of theirs since forever. We’ve been at this for 50 years now, and the forthcoming run with them underscores that the good times are really just beginning. Joe Elliott is always welcome to ride ‘shotgun’ with us, and we won’t even ask him to pay for the gas.”
