I was a big Bon Scott fan as well but, Bon Scott himself picked his successor w/o even knowing it. Bon was watching a show and thought this guy had a unique singing style, thought he was raw and thought the ending of the show was great where the singer collapsed and had to be carried off on a stretcher.....Well I'm sure Bon was a bit toasty at the show. Brian Johnson was the guy with the raw powerful and unique voice. What he didn't realize was that at the end of the show the whole collapse and being carried off on a stretcher was because Johnson actually performed with a burst appendix and really did collapse and really was carried off and rushed to a hospital for surgery. Angus told that story during a recent radio interview.....
You never ask a navy man if he'll have another drink, because it's nobody's goddamned business how much he's had already.
