AC/DC

My favourite band is AC/DC. AC/DC is a hard rock band from Australia. They play, of course, hard rock music and rock’n’roll. They have been active very long, since 1973! So they are old men today. But they are still active. They made an album in 2008 and after that, they went on a world tour and played in many countries, even in Sweden.

The front figure in the band is the lead guitarist Angus Young. When he’s on the stage, he’s very energetic and he does often show for the audience. Angus Young’s brother, Malcolm Young, is the comp guitarist in the band. He and Angus have been playing in the band since they started in 1973.

The singer of the band is Brian Johnson. He came in 1980 because the first singer, Bon Scott, had tragically died. He had drunk too much at a party, and that didn’t go well. The bass player in AC/DC is called Cliff Williams and the drummer’s name is Phil Rudd.

I like AC/DC because they play good music, of course, and because they are so old but still great! That impresses me. In the summer of 2009 I was at an AC/DC concert in Nya Ullevi in Gothenburg. The concert was part of their world tour of the “Black Ice” album, which came out then. The concert was really great. I had to have protection for my ears because they play loud. They played all their best songs and new ones from the new album. That was a memory.

I hope AC/DC continue playing a while. That would be really fun! Maybe I can add one more album to my AC/DC collection!
