RIP Malcolm Young
on: November 18, 2017, 04:53:02 PM
Sad news.

This man knew how to write thrilling songs and lay down one of the most solid rhythms in music..

For the last 10 years of his life he suffered from dementia and had to relearn his parts daily while AC/DC were touring. Imagine that - Going on stage every night not knowing whether you could carry it off.

Malcolm, Thanks for your amazing contribution to rock and roll, and your courage to continue with a crippling disability.

Rest in peace.

RIP. This is messed up news

Very Sad, I loved AC-DC and having gone through watching my mother suffer with dementia it truly is a cruel way for a person to go.  :cry:

Pretty soon, all our heroes will be dead and gone, and we´ll be stuck with Justin Bieber. Then what?

We will still have to good music to listen to. That can't be taken away. I am very happy that my 6 year old boy likes my music collection. He'll have that after I'm gone. There is hope

Went to Myrtle Beach, SC for a week after I graduated high school in 03. Only music listened to that week was Back in Black on constant repeat. Front to Back, Back to Front, it never got old. Still one of those perfect records start to finish. :cheers:
