Jimmy Bain’s Def Leppard Hysteria On The High Sea’s Artist Pass

Jimmy Bain’s last Artist pass before his untimely death on the Def Leppard Cruise. Sent to Julie (ex-girlfriend)  from the cruise line after Jimmy’s death.  The original FEDEX label still remains from when all Jimmy Bain’s personal effects were sent back from the Def Leppard Cruise ship.

On January 23, 2016, Jimmy Bain died while in his cabin on Def Leppard’s “Hysteria on the High Seas” cruise. He was due to perform on the cruise with his group Last In Line the following day. The performance did not go ahead, and band members informed fans on the cruise that he had been battling pneumonia for some time. The cause of death was determined to be lung cancer. Bain had not been diagnosed with cancer and was only aware of his pneumonia.
