Axl/DC

[Tachy]

it was actually not as bad as I thought it would be

 

[HelloJapan]

Sammy Hagar would have made sense to me.

...oh you're underestimating the obvious choice:/

I don't anticipate this going past the current tour as this might be their last tour. Angus Young has always said that he would play as long as he could because it's what he enjoys doing. They considered quitting after Bon Scott died but I seem to recall that Bon's parents told them Bon would have wanted them to go on.

Losing Malcom and Brian might change things for Angus and he is 61.

How could I forget about that, now I'm gonna be bummed all day...

My buddy wants to play a bunch of songs from Powerage, I'm just gonna sit here and write out chord diagrams for that record

It has to be tough to do an AC/DC set from a chair. You have to move to that music!

 

[Liquid Smoke]

Axl is terrible these days.

He sounds like a cat being murdered and that song is an example of the garbage AC/DC had been putting out for the past 15 or 20 years.

That's actually better than I expected

I'm expecting to see Axl join AC/DC a few weeks into their tour, being two hours late to every show, and being a combination of drunk, high, coked up.... and fat.

We could only hope he starts doing coke, then he might actually start losing weight.

Go find a road somewhere thats full of heavy traffic and play in it
No one on here will miss you

I think this is a temp thing to finish off the tour and fulfill their obligations.


It'll be interesting and all brings name recognition from the same crowd ac/DC attracts.

And he was available. Contrary to other posters in this thread a axl had a great unique voice.

It will be interesting. I'm curious to hear him cover some signature ac/DC songs.

I'm not the only one who thinks so, Trisha.

I watched Gene Simmons on Dan Rather's, The Big Interview.

He says he still really enjoys being on stage and I imagine that Angus Young is the same. Many of the old school performers seem to feel that way. They have all the money they need but they still do it just because they love to do it.

Of course there are millions who think otherwise. Reminds me of a young guy at a facility where I was called in to work on a machine. He was playing some awful music screeching metal music and I asked him what the hell that was. Turns out it was a band he's in. He got real defensive and says that I probably liked AC/DC and goes on to say how untalented they are. He started listing some bands I never heard of that he considers better. I told him AC/DC probably plays to more people in one night than his band or many of the ones he named ever would in their lifetime. I asked him how many of those bands he listed could sell out stadiums one night let alone 3 nights in a row like AC/DC did in Rio with 200,000 in 3 nights.

Let me tell ya, I got to hear Angus warming up backstage once.
Just sitting, waggling his legs back and forth (not kidding), doing finger exercises. The man can play, and to a much greater degree than you ever hear in an AC/DC song.

Especially funny is the fact that most of those bands he loves would show mad respect to Angus and the boys and jump at the chance to be an opening act for them.

It's gonna be a war of the axl roses.
