    A damn shame if it's true. Hell, they've been rocking the world so long that nobody doesn't know who AC/DC is.

        Well damnit.
        I want to go out nice and peaceful in my sleep like my grandfather, not screaming and hollering like the passengers in his car.

          any word on the the "terminally ill" That is not what I heard. I heard he had a stroke and cannot play guitar right now.

            Yeah, that's what I read too. And the recent updates have seemed to downplay them being at the end of the road. But we'll see..
            Popular is not the same as good
            Rare is not the same as valuable
            Worth is what someone will pay, not what you want to get

              Whatever the ailment or affliction, it is very sad news, and will be a great loss to rock music.

                  Sad news. It doesn't get more rock n roll than AC/DC.

                      That sucks. Sure they can go like other bands and replace him, but you just don't replace somone like him.

                      If his time has come, I hope the band does hang it up.

                        Glad to hear they've announced they'll continue on. What a strange couple days for them, the weirdest part being purported friends tripping over themselves to break the news ahead of the band. How unseemly. I'll never understand the attention dramawhore need to be seen as "the guy in the know" that motivates people to violate the privacy of someone in such a way.

                        What's the point? In the end you just look like a blabber mouth cunt.

                          Sad indeed.

                          Interesting that the blog post claims the secret to his tone was low amp volume & close micing. I had always heard their sound was heavy​ power-tube distortion.

                            I thought the same thing. I think it should say low amp gain and not volume.
                            I feel my soul go cold... only the dead are smiling.

                              Funny, since I consider AC/DC not having much distortion in their guitartone
