Def Leppard Singer Believes His Bronchial Spasm Was Brought On By Dust And Gas Emissions From Biker Festival
DEF LEPPARD front man Joe Elliott has revealed to the Belfast Telegraph that he has been suffering from a bronchial spasm "for about nine weeks" while on the road in the U.S. with his band.
"It's when you've got a cough and all the doctors can't figure out why you have it," he said. "It's one of those random things, I just cough for no reason, but luckily I've managed to avoid it onstage."
He continued: "It was brought on, I believe, by the dust and gas emissions from when we played this biker festival. They literally line up their bikes and rev their engines while you play and when you've got 30,000 doing it you can imagine the kind of air you're breathing in. It can't be good for you. That, coupled with the fact the kind of singing I do is hardly gentle, so your throat gets a battering every night. Sometimes you just have to suck it up and get on with the show."
