[edit] Career

Frank Noon played on Def Leppard's EP known both as the Def Leppard EP and the Getcha Rocks Off EP.

Frank Noon was a member of the trio The Next Band before, during, and after the time he was in Def Leppard, and played on The Next Band's Four By Three EP.

Frank Noon went on to play drums for various other bands including Lionheart, Wild Fire, Wild Horses (not the same band that Rick Steier and James Kottak were in), Stampede, Waysted, Di'anno, and Crazy Lesbians.

Frank Noon was never an official member of the band. Whether he was asked to join or not is unclear. Def Leppard just recently booking studio time and very recently without a drummer, hired Frank Noon to play. The studio was the only time they had ever played together.
