Psychographic Posted April 16, 2014 Posted April 16, 2014 There's a lot of talk of Malcolm Young suffering a recent stroke which has given him a blood clot in or near the brain. I've read quite a few stories about it in the last two days. Mostly the news doesn't sound good. The talk is the band might call it quits. Good luck and get well Malcolm.
1930fordpickup Posted April 16, 2014 Posted April 16, 2014 So far they are not throwing in the towel yet. They are reporting he is sick and will be taking time off. There face book page reported they are not giving up Music. After the Black Ice CD I was looking forward to something new again.
disabled modeler Posted April 16, 2014 Posted April 16, 2014 Hopefully he will get better and continue on with the band
Joe Handley Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 That sucks, I was just listening to their "Iron Man II" sound track on my way home from work tonight.
Harry P. Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 At the Cell (US Cellular Field, to be precise)... they play "Thunderstruck" on the PA system while the starting lineup is announced. Edit: White Sox Park, for those of you from somewhere else...

Joe Handley Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 (edited) Eh, I stil call it Comiskey most of the time Edited April 17, 2014 by Joe Handley
Agent G Posted April 17, 2014 Posted April 17, 2014 What's a white sox? That anything like a "Cub"? I don't recognize those terms, I am a Cardinals fan................................

Sheesh... a White Sox is nothing like a Cub! For starters, the White Sox have actually won a World Series within the past 100 years!
Custom Hearse Posted April 18, 2014 Posted April 18, 2014 That's sad about Malcom Young, and I hope he recovers well, but to me AC/DC was over when Bon Scott passed away. Brian Johnson has strains his voice trying to hit a high note every time he sings, and you can hear it in every song, and it ruins the song.

I didn't think there were any AC/DC fans who actually cared about the quality of the singing!
Craig Irwin Posted April 19, 2014 Posted April 19, 2014 I didn't think there were any AC/DC fans who actually cared about the quality of the singing! Or guitars in tune.......
TFchronos Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 (edited) That's what made them all the more awesome. I hope Malcolm get's better and nothing else major happens. AC/DC is one of my favs too, if this does mark the end then fire the cannons, I salute them and everything they accomplished throughout they're amazing carrier. Edited April 20, 2014 by TFchronos
FASTBACK340 Posted April 20, 2014 Posted April 20, 2014 I too saw a show from the the Black Ice tour and enjoyed it. For a guy reaching retirement age Angus put on some show, along with Brian Johnson. Too bad about Malcom. Aside from being an original member and brother to Angus, they could definitely go on with a substitute. It's not like Pantera can tour again, or Zeppilin. For crying out loud, KISS is nothing more than a cover band now with half the members replaced! Wishing Malcolm a full & speedy recovery.
BirdWatcher Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 I wanna watch Maximum Overdrive now, great soundtrack!
Paul Bunyan Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 malcolm is worth over 300 million dollars. He was the more intelligent one.. great rhythm guitar playing even though he only played 3 chords...
Harry P. Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 malcolm is worth over 300 million dollars. He was the more intelligent one.. great rhythm guitar playing even though he only played 3 chords... I'd say that if he managed to make $100 million per chord, he did alright!
mnwildpunk Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 Great band but I can't say great talent but I will feel the loss if ac/dc calls it quits much like when the clash called it quits
tubbs Posted April 22, 2014 Posted April 22, 2014 I didn't hear about this, its a shame. we all have to get old. great band, great sound together. one of the few rhythm guitarist that was happy in the shadows of his brother. I have seen AC/DC well over 15 times, but only once with Brian Johnson. I have seen them open, yes, I said open up for UFO, Meatloaf (figure that one out), Thin Lizzy, Blue Oyster Cult and Cheap trick. their first headlining tour that I can remember, Pat Travers was the opening act. hope he gets on his feet, back on stage and kicks some butt!! they still pack 'um in!!!
