🎸 What happens when you get fired by Dio, booted from Whitesnake… and still end up a guitar hero in Def Leppard? In this raw and revealing episode of dopeYEAH talk, Vivian Campbell sits down with Rob Cass and opens up like never before. From teenage dreams in Belfast to rocking stadiums worldwide, his journey is full of grit, riffs, and reinvention. 🧨
Vivian shares jaw-dropping stories of how Holy Diver came together, his fiery relationship with Ronnie James Dio, and the unexpected call that led him to Def Leppard. He reflects on the brutal truth of being fired (twice), how YouTube reconnected him with old solos, and why rally cars and guitars aren’t all that different. There’s humor, honesty, and some seriously untold backstage moments — including singing for the first time and the “impostor syndrome” that still lingers. 🎤🔥
Whether you’re a Dio loyalist, a Def Leppard fan, or just love a good story of rock & roll survival, this episode hits deep. From Phil Lynott and Ozzy Osbourne to the legacy of Jimmy Bain and new music with Last in Line, Viv proves that great songs — and great players — never go out of style. Hit play, turn it up, and enjoy the ride. 🤘🎶
