Anyone out there who never heard about AC/DC? AC/DC are legends of Rock who leave their marks in history since 1973!

The story of AC/DC is as long as legendary but I want keep it as short as possible.

AC/DC are playing a unique style of rock 'n' roll. In their early years people called them a punk band. The music range from rock'n'roll to blues rock to heavy metal.

The band was formed by the scotish-born brothers Malcolm and Angus Young in Sydney. Because of their sister, Angus doesn't wear a usual outift. His sister suggested he should wear his old school uniform on stage. Since then, Angus is wearing on stage a school uniform.

In 1974 Bon (Belford) Scott became the singer of AC/DC. Bon was a very charismatically man, a sex symbol of his time. With him AC/DC gained much popularity and became in 1976 one of the most popular rockbands worldwide.

With Bon Scott, AC/DC wrote their most popular songs. They didn't wrote just rock songs, they wrote rock anthems like 'Let there be rock'!

The band lived a life of drugs, sex and rock 'n' roll at this time but on 19. Februrary in 1980 everything changed.

After a night of heavy drinking Bon passed away. He asphyxiated on his vomit.

For many people, Bon Scott's death was the end for AC/DC. But they started a new era with singer Brian Johnson. Johnson never tried to be like Bon Scott. I think because of  this he was able to gain a new fan base.

They recorded with Brian the album Back in Black, which is considered as one of the best albums ever.

Since 1973 AC/DC recorded 16 studio album. Last week Brian Johnson turned 62 years old but on stage he is performing like he would be only 30 years old.

Angus young wears on stage still a school uniform.

AC/DC are classic!

I love this band for their great rock anthems. AC/DC created their own style of rock 'n' roll. In my view they are the founders of pub rock!

In 2008 these old man released their 16th album titled Black Ice and did a big world tour.

Some people may think on their concerts are only old people but in fact there are many young people. Partially there are grand parents who go with their grand childs on AC/DC concerts.

AC/DC rocks since ages. I love AC/DC since my early childhood. I bought my first AC/DC album in the age of 8. Being a AC/DC fan is like a never ending love.

At the end of every show AC/DC play their rock anthem For those about to rock, we salut you!

With this write-up I want salute you, AC/DC!

There are so many great songs you should listen to!

Highway to hell, T.N.T, Thunderstruck, Whole lotta Rosie, Let there be rock....the list is so long!
