Axl is like King Midas in reverse.

 

Please don't let him turn AC/DC from gold into shit.

[Rod in Toronto]

Apparently it's been confirmed...

Apparently it's been confirmed...

 

Dumb idea, IMO.

[Digital Dad]

Horrible choice if they go with Axl.

 

His singing voice is just as shot as Johnson's....but it's AC/DC, so I guess it doesn't matter.

 

Yeah but Johnsons voice is supposed to sound that way.

[Permanent-Rush]

Great Band, but they should not have chosen Axl.

Malcolm Young passed away...RIP to arguably the best rhythm guitar player EVER.

[Entre_Perpetuo]

I'm not sure there was ever a band more locked in with each other than AC/DC. ever.

[Entre_Perpetuo]

I haven't listened to Back In Black in forever, listening now and I'm just amazed at how incredible it is. Has every right to be considered one of the greatest rock and roll albums of all time. And I can definitely see the comparisons with metal if you put this next to, say, British Steel.

 

If I were to ever get in a rock band, the first thing we would do is learn this whole album by heart and learn to lock in this well. If a band can do that, anything else they try will sound infinitely more awesome.

An old clip of Bon where he mentions Rush, KISS and UFO.

 

 

Just ignore the dickhead interviewer Molly Meldrum.

 

Bon "tell me the bass players name from Kiss"...

Interviewer {mumbling} " I don't know".

Seeing Angus carrying Malcolm's guitar sure brought out the feels.

Oh man... I saw the photos, and was not ready to feel this emotional. The fact that Brian and Phil were there - and even former bass player Mark Evans - show how impactful Mal's death was.

 

I'm revisiting all AC/DC albums since last week, in no particular order.

Yeah mate seeing Phil Rudd and Mark Evans there was beautiful. :cheers:

Seeing Angus carrying Malcolm's guitar sure brought out the feels.

“He was famous for rhythm but infamous for boating skills,” Mr Horsburgh said to much laughter before detailing mishaps including the sinking of a sailboat and a yacht which caught on fire.

“We could almost blame him personally for rising sea levels caused by too many anchors lost at sea.”

Got to admit that seeing them there made me feel emotional.

Malcolm. Thank you for posting this. It sounds like a lovely and most appropriate service, with the boating stories and the Scots pipers playing Long Way to the Top. I agree with everyone, the photos are really moving. Hard to see Angus without Malcolm near him.
