Underground

I just thought I would drop by and share some photos from this weekend's Def Leppard show in Irvine, CA. I shot with Phil Collen (lead guitarist) who has used Muay Thai training for the past 6 years to stay in shape. He trains with world-class Muay Thai instructor Jean Carrillo, who has taught him to hit like a frate trane! He is 53 years old and is in the best shape of his life...

Anyway, just thought I'd share the shots of him training backstage, as well as on stage. The images can be found here (sorry, I can only post the link!):

It's sad when old people think they can still do things. Someone should tell that old perv to put a shirt on.

You can always count on the OG to support a dirty old man.
