ZoSoRose Posted September 8, 2014 Author Share Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) Yeah, I'm calling BS as well. There's just no way in this day and age a radio station could "accidentally" play a new single before it's release date (Or before anyone even knows there will be a single in the near future, for that matter), and not have it be all over the internet. Plus, wouldn't the DJ have said something about it being the new AC/DC song before/after?Are you sure it wasn't another band you mistook for AC/DC? There's a handful of singers out there that sound like Brian...It was 100% AC/DC. I was driving from Bay City, MI to see my gf who is in East Lansing, MI. I am pretty sure I was listening to the Lansing rock station- 106.1. I was flipping channels cause I was tired of my CCR CD in the car and I remember kind of going- man, AC/DC again? Since they always play them. It was clearly Brian singing.Then I realized I didn't know the song. I was intrigued and just enjoying it thinking it was a deeper cut I missed then the chorus kept hitting and Brian kept shouting, "Man Down" and I just went holy shit! I was an idiot and thought about recording it but I figured the song just got released by surprise. I figured it was weird a radio was playing before an announcment but was excited to read about it after. I can tell you it was really good, and solid AC/DC. I wish I had a better description but its freakng AC/DC. I do remember Brian screaming Man Down a lot at the end and Angus coming in with a bunch of leads at the end. That can probably describe all AC/DC songs, though.Ugh... I fucked up I should have recorded it. This is just so weird, but I know what I heard. If it wasn't AC/DC what are the chances there would be a band out there sounding that similar, with a song called Man Down, getting airplay? It just doesn't make any sense. And the DJ said nothing after the song.Should I call them tomorrow? And you guys should know I'm not an attention whore or anything, I am just so dumbfounded there is zero information about the song anywhere onlineEDIT- Fuck this, there isn't anything on the AC/DC forum either. I'll call the station tomorrow but I have zero proof to offer you guys. Either way, I would be shocked if there isn't an announcment soon since I am 99% sure I heard a new AC/DC song.

Silent Jay Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Yeep, no words in ACDCfans.com.I don't know what to think, Brian sang "Man Down" in Rock N' Roll Dream, maybe?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmarBradley Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Just as a comparative example, some random Australian radio station played Bent To Fly (new Slash) a week or two ago...... like 20 days before the album came out. No announcement from the band, Slash2baz told us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Jay Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 Damn, I hope it's true, which would mean that we are not very far from an announcement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZoSoRose Posted September 8, 2014 Author Share Posted September 8, 2014 (edited) You know what? The more I think about it, the more I am convinced it was the new song.He didn't just sing Man Down once or twice, it was the focus of the whole darn thing. It had a really old school vibe, and Brian's voice was a bit harsher I remember (sounded really good), the song had a kind of open or loose vibe while being pretty heavy. I don't remember much of the solo but I remember Angus soloing at the end while Brian sang. The production was great and I hate to say it, it didn't even register to me that Malcolm wasn't on it, it sounded fine (I just hope he is on board with this).I am sorry I fucked up, my gut told me to pull out my phone to record but I thought it just got released while I started driving.

ZoSoRose Posted September 23, 2014 Author Share Posted September 23, 2014 Im cool with stadiums! Cheaper seats and bigger shows! Plus, I've already seen them in an arena Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerage5 Posted September 23, 2014 Share Posted September 23, 2014 I'm fine with a stadium tour too - of the 3 gigs I saw on the Black Ice tour 2 were stadiums and 1 was an arena, and I enjoyed the stadium gigs much more. That said, I doubt it will be ALL stadiums, I just don't think the demand is high enough. Brian recently said the tour will be much bigger than the original idea of 40 dates for 40 years because of demand. But they're not gonna be able to fill stadiums everywhere, particularly in the US. Hell, there were only 2 US stadium gigs for Black Ice and neither sold out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
