Joe Elliott Quotes
Sometimes after a gig one of the band would say 'Did you see that girl down the front?' and somebody would say 'Do you want me to get her back?' But, generally we met them at the hotel or backstage. For a girl to get backstage in the first place, she'd probably blown half the crew - and I'm not into sharing in that respect. We had one roadie who actually had a heart attack on tour with us in 1983 - he was a big, big guy and he was doing at least four or five groupies a day!
