The thing about AC/DC is they have never changed. Just a one of greatest Rock bands ever. No Bon Jovi haircuts and designer clothes to look pretty, just balls out rock....~
@Jack Walters I got a tattoo of ACDC’s lightening bolt on the back of my calf. It’s intertwined with a treble clef. I love it. It’s personal tribute to the band that has kept on rocking my world for 40 years! I play guitar because of Angus. Just to be able to play their songs is so amazing. One of my guitars is cherry red Gibson SG. In love.
They say you should never meet your heroes. That's bullshit. Look at Jim. You can tell he had the most amazing time jamming with Brian Johnson. And who wouldn't?
Duuuuude! Brian Johnson is tha man! This is actually the first time I heard his natural speaking voice anywhere at any time, ever. I love how been there, done that, down to earthy he is. And when you have a heavy metal enthusiast like Jim Breuer giving these hard rock and heavy metal legends their due on his show and in his comedy acts, it puts them over even more. Thanks, Jim.
He gave everything to his craft, to his music, most of all to his fans. It's sad he had to quit, the beautiful thing is he quit because he went damn near close to being deaf for his rock and roll music. We lose a lot of rock stars to drugs and alcohol. Brian left performing for the sole reason that he performed 100% all the time and it cost him his hearing. He gave EVERYTHING he put every single OUNCE of energy into his music, and eventually was forced into not performing because he lost his hearing. That's a singing career you can hang your hat on. Performing well into your late 60s playing hard rock music leaving only because you risk being deaf. Although it is sad, that's the ultimate dedication to rock and roll. Nothing in this world could stop him except death, and not being able to hear the music. There's a lot of beauty in that. Long live AC/DC and Brian Johnson.
Actually there is some good news on that front. A research company has created a new device that, if it works correctly, will allow him to come back and perform without further damaging his ears. From all the accounts I've been able to find, it works and he plans to return touring soon... so that's great. Of course since you posted this, we've lost Malcom, so there's still that.
Wow!! That just made me smile from ear to ear!!! We all know just how much Jim Breuer adores AC/DC and his impression of Bryan Johnson is THE greatest!! So that was a very magical moment to see him rock out with his idol!! Awesome, man!! Jim deserves that :-)
Brian seems like one of the coolest dudes ever. Any video or situation I've seen him in outside of the band he appears to be having a great time whatever it is.
Now imagine sitting down with Brian Johnson having a coffee his knowledge of history and music would drive you positively. He truly seems like a genuinely great person so inspiring him and Jim both.
The guitar sound is fine. See, this is what people need to understand about Malcolm Young. He is the reason why AC/DC has that trademark "sound" that people can never really copy in full.
Darin Loveland I have said that since 1977. Malcolm is the reason you can't stay still he was like you said the back bone of the band. My bedroom was above our kitchen when I bought High Voltage and Power Age. I had a very cool mom and I would come down stairs with the celling shaking and AC/DC. I caught my mom just Rocking while she was cooking and said There is something in that stuff you can't help yourself but go with. Thanks Malcolm for that beautiful moment with my mom. She died a short time later and that memory is special. She had a heart attack keeping a man alive after he had a heart attack taking him in the back of a church van on vacation in the Smoky Mountains. She got him there and she sat down in the Emergency room and died in the chair. She suffered from Asthma her whole life. She was a Nurse Practician
I love Brian Johnson and Jim (Goat boy). I love him too. Watching them both Rock out. Love AC/DC...THEY ARE THE GREATEST..THERE WILL NEVER BE ANYONE LIKE THEM.ROCK AND ROLL WILL NEVER DIE.
Not only was it kick ass for such a legend like Brian to jam with Jim But it was equally bad ass for Brian to jam with such a legend like Jim. Got goosebumps from this one.
I grew up on ACDC and Jim and I are the same age , hanging out with the guys who made Back in Black must be a Shoot to Thrill ............the sound track to our lives , it's like we've known them our entire lives . always on our radios .
You can almost feel the giddiness of Jim getting to sing with Brian. It’s like getting to play a game of catch with Nolan Ryan or Johnny Bench (I’m old)
Metal Forever... Of course... But I am just SO happy for Jim cuz he has been able to rock out with & meet, so many of his rock idols... And no one deserves that, more than Jim Brewer.... He's a great Dad, Husband & Son... Super funny comedian and regular guy... Hellz yea Jimmy... I hope he gets ALL his dreams filled... twice! \m/
first saw this many years ago and I have seen a lot of things since. This is still one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. So much humanity and love.
This is what separates Ac/DC from the rest of the legendary rock bands. They never acted like they were better than anyone else or needed special treatment. They were just rock stars without makeup or drama (i.e. GNR or Kiss) Hopefully they tour one more time!
Just saw AC/DC for the umpteenth time about two weeks back. Poured rain just like the last time they were here, and just like the last time, IT ROCKED!!
I seen AC/DC 1988 Thunderstruck tour Angus lost his shoe when he was playing on his back it flew over my head . I loved Brian he added so much to the band AC)DC never skipped a beat
Brian has to be the coolest guy ever. Not only can he sell out massive stadiums with one of the greatest rock bands in the world, but he can also sit down and have a chat with everyday people like he's known them all their lives. No rock star bullsh*t with this guy.
Usually, I would see any other celebrity and be like, eh, because we see celebrities so often now in person, etc, but this was special seeing Brian Johnson. Wow!
I love AC/DC. I love how AC/DC haters say they can't play.... Yes their music is simple but listen to how bad the band is ruining that song. Simple yes, complex, more than most can understand
