Gotta respect his attitude and strength through the difficult time, and his talk about vanity and his hair, that's real talk right there,,a guitar legend and a real human being, I wish him well!
I met him once back stage in San Diego on the tour with Styx & REO Speedwagon, I agree, he’s a very sweet guy, & humble. I’ve been a big fan of his since the Dio days, if he has a ego he definitely doesn’t have it on display, just has a great spirit.
That's my attitude too. I'm a big fan of Vivian, since a long time. I have leukemia. But it doesn't control me. I have put the blood cancer aside and am happy about life. Every day, with the music of Def Leppard ❤❤❤❤
@@christinehuber622 awesome to hear! I saw them for the first time last month when they were in Orlando. If you’re interested I filmed some of my concert experience on my channel. Stay well!!!
Vivian's story is almost identical to mine. I had a cough for several months and doctors diagnosed me with everything from bronchitis to extreme allergies. Finally after about 7 months of different antibiotics and inhalers, they sent me for a chest x-ray, which showed a mass in my left lung. At first they thought lung cancer but after a CATSCAN and a needle biopsy I was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Stage 2B. I'm done with my chemo and currently getting radiation. Vivian is an inspiration to me!
Rick Allen lost his arm...Def Leppard still rocking Steve Clark passes away(we miss you Steve)...Def.Leppard still rocking. Vivian Campbell gets lymphoma...Def Leppard still rocking. DL are amazing.
Pete Willis drinks himself into a stupor...still rocking Joe Elliot slaps on 29 stone..still rocking Mutt Lange gets involved and destroys any semblance of spontaneity...still rocking
Another Irish with Lymphoma. I’m a 33 year old Mum of one from Waterford. Huge fan! It’s been a terrible few months here in and out of hospital with constant infections. But I’ve just had my second last chemo. One more left. Thank god. Was stage 2 also and feeling very lucky to be alive. Thanks for sharing your story. Not only did my whole image change but non of that matters. I still get to hear my son say “I love you Mammy” so if I stay bald and overweight the rest of my life I don’t care. Vanity completely gone from my life. All that matters is staying here in any form for my three year old baby boy ❤ stay strong all. I’m so thankful for this story and this channel 🙏🙏🙏
We are sorry to hear that you have been dealing with lymphoma and have been in and out of hospital in recent months. Thank your sharing your story and positive outlook - we send you our very best wishes
Vivian...God Bless, Man. I was a huge fan during your Dio days. You were a very major influence in my life at a young age, and I will always regard you as one of the most important guitarist in rock/metal during the early 80's. You truly are a huge talent and influence to true metal! Hair is hair...life is life...God Bless Vivian through Christ!
Really? Shit on the intelligent people developing medicine through science and thank your christ for divining the world with cancer in the first place? Twat.
Man, Vivian's been battling with this for years! Talk about "in the fight". Keep fighting Vivian! You got to keep us stuffed with your guitar playing and writing and basically, the world need Vivian Campbell!!! Love you man
I once donated my hair to a place called Locks of Love which is where you let your hair grow real long and cut it and make a wig for people with cancer and l also tried to raise money for the Cancer foundation for my father who died of cancer 5 years ago is what you are going through related to cancer?? You guys don't need anything happening to you guys again l mean he replaced Steve Clark didn't he?My prayers are with you that you get through this because you have been through enough as it is
I sat next to this guy at a Neil Finn show at the Wiltern Theater in Los Angeles several years ago. I told him how awesome of a musician he was and shook his hand. He graciously thanked me and then said "if you really want to see something awesome wait till Neil comes out". He was unbelievably humble…I am so impressed by this video. I hope he reaches a lot of people with his positivity. Best wishes to him and to anyone who suffers from the awful effects of cancer.
I met Vivian back in the early 80s when he came down from Belfast to Dublin with Sweet Savage. Not only did he amaze us with his playing, but he was really nice guy. My very best to him and his family. He still inspires in many ways.
Man I love Vivian. He is such a down to earth guy with a great big heart for others. If not for you sir, I would have never became a guitar player myself. Your style and passion in my humble opinion created a lot of the things we needed to learn as guitarist back from the DIO days even until this day.an I love you and pray for you.
I wish you full recovery Viv ! Thank you for sharing your story! You are the best, keep on rocking! I saw you with Def Leppard and I'm a huge fan! P.S. Just want to let you know, my nephew had Hodgkin's Lymphoma about 12 years ago and he is doing really great!
Def Leppard is one of the greats. I had Stage IV Non Hodgkins. The chemo is brutal. So glad Vivian is doing better. The crazy thing is that people are living with cancer and don't even know it. I can relate to his symptoms. Be well Vivian!
Yes...such a humble interview. Talking about an illness, sharing the journey. That is human connection, rare, unadulterated. I get the hair..I'm a hairstylist/cosmetologist 37 yrs & going. My hair from a babe in the 70's to now has been a part of my image, and I am Irish with hair and looks, 🤗😉 In 2010 at 48, I shaved my head. I wanted to see my hair color. The feedback was surprisingly good. Some people close were shocked, yet when they saw I walked in my beauty and I am me...Respect. Been and looking your season in this life is true to your authentic self. Vivian, I would have been happy to cut your hair! 🙂🤗
Don't sweat the hair, Viv. You just concentrate, I mean CONCENTRATE!!! I Love you, Mr. Campbell, and expect to see you again for the 9th time on the bands next tour. You're always in my prayers. . . ROCK ON!!!
I like his American-Irish accent. You're a trooper Viv. Thanks for being awesome and please fight this! My co-wroker had stage III/ IV & she lost her hair, but she made it through. She's 57.
@@rupertwilliams891 yeah the Belfast accent is "curly", I'm in Donegal and l do hear a wee bit of America in there, but the accent up here is a little curly in comparison to the lower counties.
@@irishcountrygirl78 Its just a slight american twang he has, just presumably from living there so long and rubbing off on him when he pronounces certain words. But he's Belfast through and through 😎
Thank u for sharing your story I was diagnosed with stage4b in August of 2013 I'm still going thru my fight but there is light at the end of the tunnel thank u
Get better soon bro i saw Def lepard in 2008 with Billy idol it was one hell of a show! and I had first row ground seat and got up and shook his hand after the show..what a nice guy! rock on!!!
Viv, you look BETTER without your hair! I swear you do! It actually updated your look by many years. You rock and you've got CRAZY style now! The VERY BEST to you and your family.
Interesting you said that. I think he's a great looking man without hair or a wig. I mean, seriously. You aren't a kid anymore. Now you've updated your look. Like Phil Collen updated his whole health regime!
Had tickets to the 2012 show and it was canceled - with a message from the band that said, "Pray for our Def Leppard family" I never followed up with the story so I am blown away now. Blessings to you and your family. My wife was diagnosed in Jan 2013 and is recovering.
I've been a big fan of Vivian's from the Dio and Whitesnake days up to his Def Leppard gig. In fact, I've seen him in concert once for WS and twice for DL. Hang in there, mate! God Bless!
God Bless You, Vivian!!! I've been a big fan since your Dio days and owned a Kramer Baretta you autographed while in Whitesnake.Stay strong, keep rockin' and get better!! Praying for you, brother!!
Vivian Campbell has been one of my favorite guitarists ever since he started with Dio. His attitude in dealing with his health issues is not only courageous, but inspirational as well. And as far as the hair is concerned, I think being bald gives him a more modern and current look, "hip" if you will. Luckily his head is shaped such that he wears bald well. Hell, look at Joe Satriani. Now the two of them should start a band. Call themselves the Bad Ass and Bald Bandito Brothers. Much prayers, love, and respect to you V.C. You'll be just fine.
My father had this form of cancer in the late 1970s and was one of the first - if not the first - people to be cured of it in Northern Ireland. The medical staff at Craigavon Hospital called him "the Miracle Man"... Best wishes to Vivian for a speedy recovery. Hemp Oil might be an alternative to chemo.
One of my favorite players, i don't follow def leppard much( i do like a lot of their music) but his stuff with Dio is some of the best stuff, of ever! Vivian + Dio = Awesome !
This video now applies to me. I had a bad cough and remembered this video, and Vivian’s description. I went and got checked and sure enough, diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma. I may not have thought much about my cough, if I hadn’t listed to him in this video. So, thank you Vivian. Thank you very much.
My son who has been a huge Leppard fan for 4 decades was just diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma stage 2B just like you and your video helped him and myself cope with it. Thanks so much! Rock on!
Vivian the best advice that I got when I battled my leukemia was that I had to find my new normal. Because you really are never the same again. The way you carry on is inspiring. God bless you.
I have always loved your work. When the Dio songs come one and your solos hit the speakers, I will stop whatever I am doing and just listen to the brilliance that is your guitar. Stay strong and keep on rocking!
Hats off to you Vivian for having the strength to keep going and not let cancer slow you down. Here's to many more years healthy and much more music to come!
Take care of yourself Vivian... I was going through cancer treatment when Holy Diver came out and you and Dio kept me going while I recovered... You have a great attitude... Be well...
Prayers brother. My favorite guitar player when I was growing up. Met him once in Dallas at guitar show. Early 90s . Very nice person. Got an autographed poster
Vivian... making a video like this was such an awesome thing to do and no doubt saved someones life in the process. Your definitely a man of the people and your attitude is a great example to all. I'm a guitar player too and my hair was gone by 25 LOL! Yours will grow back but you still look cool and and as long as those sweet Riffs keep chugging out it's all good!
I saw you a bunch of time with Dio your a great guitar player! I also been Diagnosed with Non hodgkins lymphoma at 53 a few years back. Came out right after a triple hernia surgery. I went through every stage of emotion possible now I just except it and live my life. Good luck and rock on!!!!
Saw VC this year with Last in Line in Colorado Springs not knowing how great this guy was. No limit how big of a fan I am now & I will see him tomorrow night at Coors field with Def Leopard. I'm there to see Vivian Campbell & I know he'll kill it!
I had a chronic cough and it turned out to be Sarcoidosis. I was in the same boat as you but it took 8 years for me to get diagnosed. Thank you for this video!
Vivian no matter with hair or no hair you still rock. You inspire me and my band that nothing can knock me down. Embrace without the wigs they itch. Keep rocking.
Class act, down to earth guy, strong willed. And who says Rockers aren't just normal human beings? (Other than Keith Richards) Millions of us supporters are behind you brother Vivian 😎👍
Thanks for that Vivian love your work , just stay healthy , guys are very good at lying bout how messsed up we can be , that is very true indeed,.. the best thing you did was tell everyone lose ego and get help! al the best rasta and all your brother lepps
Vivian, you look GREAT! And you are an inspiration--both as a guitarist/musician and a spokesman for lymphoma. I greatly respect and applaud you. And if I could tell you one thing, it would be, "Fuck the hair!" Who cares?! In the grand scheme of things, that is so incredibly unimportant. If anything, I have a great deal MORE respect for you now, with your current appearance, than I ever did before. And that's saying something, for my opinion of you has always been so very high. You have been one of my favorite guitarists for 30 years. Thank you.
Who could put 2 "thumbs down" for this video.? This guy is battling cancer and you give a thumb down? Does your life suck that bad?
Scott A it’s now 26 😪
for real
Vivian if you're half as strong a person as you are a performer ,and a guitarist,you'll be here forever. God lets hope so. you're a guitar treasure.
Gotta respect his attitude and strength through the difficult time, and his talk about vanity and his hair, that's real talk right there,,a guitar legend and a real human being, I wish him well!
I met Vivian in Florida through a friend and he is the nicest guy you'll ever meet. He is beyond a genius on the guitar! God Bless you buddy...
