When The Walls Came Tumbling Down… - posted 10.06

Another little piece of Def Leppard history gone.....

Joe: "This is Osborn Mushet Tool Works biting the dust the other day….. Some of you might like to see where I worked after I left school in 1975! I was there for four years, before I was "asked to leave" (for playing cricket in the basement stores with a piece of wood pulled off a pallet & a bakelite knob for a ball!). In the end, I wrote a LOT of the lyrics for the 'ON THROUGH THE NIGHT' album in my little underground hovel!!! "

"I worked in the basement, so I would have been underground about 30 feet in from the left. It was a complete shithole 35 years ago, so one can only imagine what it was like just before they pushed the plunger!"

"It's sayonara to a little bit of Leppard history….!!"
