Support Some Great Causes
Want to support some great causes and be rewarded with exclusive perks at the same time? Buy my VIP ACCESS Membership during the month of December and 100% of the proceeds will be donated to one of two charities providing relief and support to those impacted by the recent California wildfires: North Valley Community Foundation and Malibu Foundation. This is not the Def Leppard Concert Club, but my own private membership program. Members of my VIP ACCESS club get all kinds of perks including photos and video from backstage, access to my private members-only Facebook group to chat with me directly, early access to any collectibles in the store, plus contests and giveaways for all kinds of prizes! VIP ACCESS is my way of giving back to those who take interest in my many passions in life by rewarding them for their support and donations. Come join us!

Veterans Day
On Veterans Day today, I ask that you watch this short video concerning our homeless vets. If you are near the Carmel Valley area, I hope that you will join us for the concert on November 17th at the Folktale Winery to help raise funds for programs to help them. If you can’t make that, please just be aware of this growing problem and find other ways to support our veterans in need.
I thank all of our Veterans for their sacrifices and continue to support programs designed to help those of them in need.
Tickets for the Saturday concert are available now – along with opportunities to upgrade to be a VIP Guest and spend some extra time with me along with some other bonuses. I hope you can join us! https://project-resiliency.org/magical

Love this photo and the story that goes with it!
Thanks for sharing it with me, Rachel! 🙂 Here’s her fantastic story behind this photo:
Hi Rick! Sorry this is so long and rambling, but I wanted to share this because for me, this is all about coming full circle…I started listening to Def Leppard when I was 12 after hearing Photograph on the radio..and it was then this amazing band from Sheffield immediately carved a niche into my life and heart, with your records becoming the soundtrack to all the important events in my life….love, heartbreak, marriage, births, deaths and everything in between. Fast forward to 2012…my son attended his first Def Leppard show for his 12th birthday, and has been my constant companion each year after that (minus the Vegas residency). Last year my daughter firmly told me that I was taking her to your next show… Saturday @ Wrigley Field, my son attended his 7th Lep show, it was my 13th. Below is my 10 year old at her first concert…ever… Def Leppard. The picture says it all…it was an amazing show and [we] had the best time. We’ll see you next time….and there will be a next time
