Uhm...No. I'd say Van Halen are more popular than Def Leppard are over here but only by a small margin. Def Leppard aren't "pretty big" over here. They're pretty much non-existant apart from a few countries here and there. If you drop the name Def Leppard chances are no one has any idea of what you're talking about, even if you play a song by them. Play Jump and chances are people recognize it.

I've seen Def Leppard once and was bored to death by them, and left after half an hour to get something to eat instead. It's mediocre mid-tempo drivel that pretty much sounds all the same to me. I've downloaded their discography and could never get into it. I never understood why they're so appealing to some.

Salaam Aleikum,
Sebastiaan
