Undisclosed illness

Sad day.

 

I've never heard an AC/DC song that I didn't immediately crank up!

 

I salute you, Mr. Young! Sending prayers.

You and Jim Schue. Peas in a pod.

I kind of view AC/DC the same way as Van Halen's regrettable Van Hagar days. There is no AC/DC after Bon Scott.

This.

Malcolm had a stroke about 6 months ago.

I love both versions. I think part of it was because I heard the Brian Johnson stuff before Bons stuff (I was 10 when Back in Black came out). Their music with Johnson is a little less raw, more simplistically, but really that started with Mutt Lange and Highway to Hell. In my opinion they are one of the most consistent bands ever, and even though not all the albums sold well (especially through the mid to late 80's, every one of them has at least 4 or 5 really good songs.

 

I do really loathe Van Hagar.

Johnson envy, pure and simple................

[Colonels_Wear_Blue]

Wasn't there a rumor going around about this like a year ago...and then Malcolm and AC/DC came out and denied it?

[lawildcat]

Malcolm Young, AC/DC founding member and guitarist, will not return to the band due to illness - NY Daily News

[Clyde]

Malcolm's nephew will replace him.

 

Good luck, kid.

I just need a tour, one of the few bands that I want to see whom I've never had the chance to see live.
