Popular Post bigpoop Posted May 15, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted May 15, 2017 (edited) Longtime AC/DC singer Brian Johnson returned to the stage in Oxford, England tonight to join Bad Company frontman Paul Rodgers for an encore performance of Barrett Strong’s 1959 classic “Money.” As if that wasn’t big enough news, Led Zeppelin legend Robert Plant joined in, too. You can see most of the performance above, and another bit below. This all took place on the sixth date of Rodgers’ 14-date Free Spirit tour, which as you can probably guess by the name is celebrating the music of his first band, Free.

Silent Jay Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Brian's voice is still unbelievably strong. He could still do AC/DC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrSoftie Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 Sorta' raises some questions about his departure from AC/DC... Well, he's looking and sounding good, sounds much better than those last few AC/DC shows. Good for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bond Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 That's where he belongs. I know a one-off thing like this is a smaller venue is probably easier on his ears than an AC/DC stadium gig, but it makes you wonder the current status of his hearing.

Derick Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 That´s great!!! I hope he goes back to singing in AC/DC...With this, Axl can re-focus on his own band. So everyone wins!!!! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AxlRoseCDII Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 I don't think this signals a return to AC/DC. A one off guest appearance on one song is much easier and has little threats to his hearing as opposed to a full on 2 hour a night stadium tour. Still, very cool to see. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Robert Plant as a musician, the dude absolutely inspires me. I wish he would do one final trek with Zeppelin, though 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark1989 Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 All I know is if I was almost deaf in one year and seriously low in the other and I was told to get off stage or go deaf. I wouldn't go anywhere near any live music again. Raises many questions. Cool to see though without a doubt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archtop Posted May 15, 2017 Share Posted May 15, 2017 I think if I had been at this show, I would have of died and gone to heaven quite happily. Two of my Icons Plant and Rodgers, and its absolutely amazing to see Brian Johnson up there, three awesome voices on one stage. The comradery is a joy to watch, I can't fan girl enough over this.

I wish he would do one final trek with Zeppelin, though I follow a few Zepplin sites, and there's some rumblings that Led Zepplin will be the surprise band at Glastonbury this year, I have no idea if it's true but would be great to see ??
