Another rumor was that there was an audition for a new bass or drum player in NYC when Angus visited Axl at the Guns`n`Roses show in Madison Square Garden. Can you give me a source for both rumours? Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shocker Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 The first rumor about the bass player started when early this year when Angus played with Guns`n`Roses in Sydney. I guy who call himself SoloDallas posted this at his facebook page. SoloDallas visited the band in the studio in Vancouver when they recorded Rock or Bust and he has been backsatge on several shows during Rock or Bust Tour. But he deleted his post later. I gotta dig to find the source for the second rumor. But Angus was pictured with a guy who used to design their album covers. I will find this picture and and then I will also find the source for the audition rumor. But it was a rumor and I got no evidence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bond Posted December 12, 2017 Share Posted December 12, 2017 SoloDallas is reliable enough - he built Angus' wireless unit (the Schaefer replica) and has met him several times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was also in some lawsuit against the band (wich he apparently won) because the band only gave him a few bucks and a flight ticket to Australia after he was fired. Mark Evans can`t even sing backing vocals either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why they never performed some of the songs from HTH live Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be surprised if he wanted to continue with ACDC tbh. He always used to talk about how Malcolm was the one he would always seek approval approval from the most in regards to songwriting. It seems he really was a huge influence on Angus the whole way through his life. I know for the last album Malcolm wasn't present but he was still around in spirit I guess. Angus has lost two brothers in just a few weeks. Do you think that will hold him back? I promise you NOT! Remember that the Back in Black album is all about facing adversity. Now he also got a new friend in Axl and they are both hungry to make new music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes of course. SoloDallas posted on his facebook that a new bass player was hired but he deleted the post later when the rumor was out. SoloDallas is a fantastic guitar player but I`ve never heard him play bass. I don`t even know if he even play in a band, LOL! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shocker Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 I don`t want to speculate more about the drummer and the bass player because I think we`ll hear something early next year. But when they asked Phil Rudd earlier this year if he tought he would play with Angus again he mentioned that there could be another Young family member in training. Angus has a unkown nephew in Australia, James Young who played drums in The Poor, a unkown aussie rock band. The Poor opened for AC∕DC in Minneapolis in 96 Ballbreaker Tour.

AxlRoseCDII Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 I don't see how AC/DC will continue soon. Angus may need time to mourn the loss of two brothers and I can't see him going on a massive tour right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Majestic Beast Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 If Angus decide to continue,then this is disrespect to the history of the band,the fans and to the lost brothers.If he want to do another project with Axl and a band will play stuff from AC/DC and new stuff with Axl,that's the only way to continue.

Neither Scott, Johnson, Williams or Rudd were “original members“. It means that only 2/5 of the Highway to Hell and Back in Black line-ups could be considered as “original“.
