Hey there AC/DC fans

[Robbo]

As an old AC/DC fan from wayback it was a bit disappointing to see that
Phil Rudd the drummer has been a very naughty boy. I'm guessing that
any chance of a revival tour ain't going to be happening.

Yep sometimes the more expensive options work out better in the long run...
Planning on hiring a killer, go for the more expensive ones that keep there mouth shut.

Well I guess he's a bit Thunderstruck now...

Hope he get's hammered, a wanker even back in his good old days

Was always the Back in Black sheep of the band, but a shame to see him get so fucked up. Drugs will do that to ya

New album out next month too :)

[Robbo]

Such a shame to see a great band ending like this. First Malcom Young with health issues and now Phil Rudd with his dickhead issues. Check out this awesome concert they did in Munich when all the guys were at their best, especially Phil

bollocks to that. Brian has been singer* longer than Bon was and some of their better work (including of course BACK IN BLACK) is post Bon Scott stuff.

*well, you know what I mean.


Anybody can be the drummer. The fact that Malcolm Young is fucked with dementia/alzheimers or whatever is what has fucked the band.

and it is not like anyone in the band needs the money.

they do have a new album coming out in December I think. The tour might be a bit ...... off.

Looking at his face I reckon meth bigtime. He doesnt look to have any of his teeth left - sure sign of "meth mouth" (Its a thing, look it up: basically meth dries up your saliva which means your teeth just rot away. Its disgusting).

They are nowhere near ending, Malcolms nephew took over rhythm duties a while ago and it sounds like Phil hadn't had much to do with the new album anyway. He's not in at least some of the promo shots for it.

They ain't finishing they are touring next year with new drummer if necessary and who knows Phils gonna make a JaaaaiiiiiiL break!

Looks like their upcoming tour is still going ahead, according to their website. If they could get Chris Slade back their sound should still be the same. He drummed for them during the eighties after Phil Rudd had been kicked out, and he was great. Phil was an awesome drummer but it looks like the meths was the problem. He obviously didn't give a shit about the band and could have gone off the rails during the next tour if he hadn't been picked up now.

A charge against AC/DC drummer Phil Rudd of trying to hire a hitman to kill two people has been dropped by the Crown solicitor.

A spokeswoman for Greg Hollister-Jones on Friday said the charge was withdrawn due to insufficient evidence.

The drummer's lawyer, Paul Mabey QC, said the charge alleging the 60-year-old attempted to procure murder should never have been laid.

"Questions arise as to the degree of care taken by those responsible for arresting and charging him with attempting to procure murder," he said in a statement.

Mr Mabey says his client's reputation has already been affected given the intense worldwide media attention his brief court appearance on Thursday had attracted.

"The damage to Mr Rudd is incalculable," he said.

The barrister said the AC/DC member is considering further action over how police handled the matter.

Should let a few coppers back on the road to get those filthy lane splitters

It is only my opinion, I personally preferred the Bon Scott (early AC/DC) era, as I did with Iron Maiden and Paul Di'Anno. I guess it was the voice. Brian Johnson's voice does nothing for me.

Same, early accadacca had some raw appeal for me, but then it all went a bit "sameish" as did Iron Maiden, and Mettallica in later years went the same way I feel.:2thumbsup

David Coverdale & Ian Gillan both had great voices but Coverdale had that certain 'Rock element' to his voice (like Di Anno/Scott) that can't be replicated.

Black sabbath was the same for me when ozzy left, just lost that "something".

Back in black
I hit the sack
It's been too long I'm glad to be back
Yes I'm, let loose
From the noose
That's kept me hanging around
I keep looking at the sky
'Cause it's gettin' me high
Forget the hearse 'cause I'll never die
I got nine lives
Cats eyes
Usin' every one of them and running wild
'Cause I'm back
Yes, I'm back
Well, I'm back
Yes, I'm back
Well, I'm back, back
(Well) I'm back in black
Yes, I'm back in black
Back in the back
Of a Cadillac
Number one with a bullet, I'm a power pack
Yes, I'm in a bang
With a gang
They've got to catch me if they want me to hang
Cause I'm back on the track
And I'm beating the flack
Nobody's gonna get me on another rap
So look at me now
I'm just makin' my play
Don't try to push your luck, just get out of my way
'Cause I'm back
Yes, I'm back
Well, I'm back
Yes, I'm back
Well, I'm back, back
(Well) I'm back in black
Yes, I'm back in black
Well, I'm back, Yes I'm back
Well, I'm back, Yes I'm back
Well, I'm back, back
Well I'm back in black
Yes I'm back in black
Hooo yeah
Ohh yeah
Yes I am
Oooh yeah, yeah Oh yeah
Back in now
Well I'm back, I'm back
Back, I'm back
Back, I'm back
Back, I'm back
Back, I'm back
Back
Back in black
Yes I'm back in black
Outta sight
