Angus Young Joins Guns N Roses In Sydney

in News

The much rumoured Angus Young and Guns N Roses collaboration did happen in Sydney Friday night.

The AC/DC legend Angus Young is back home in Sydney visiting family and used the occasion to perform a couple of his own songs with Gun N Roses.

Young joined part-time AC/DC singer Axl Rose for ‘Whole Lotta Rosie’ and ‘Riff Raff’, both songs originally recorded with Bon Scott on vocals.

Axl Rose has been the singer for AC/DC following the sudden dumping of Brian Johnson after 36 years with the band. While many thought the departure of Johnson spelt the end of AC/DC, Angus has vowed to move on with Axl. Another AC/DC with Axl Rose is currently being worked on.

A new AC/DC album with Rose will be the fourth time AC/DC have changed singers after Dave Evans then Bon Scott then Brian Johnson.

The Damned released the first ever UK punk single, “New Rose” off album Damned, Damned, Damned, in 1976, and were often overshadowed by their English punk counterparts. Now in their late sixties and still touring world-wide, featuring the original line up of Dave Vanian, Captain Sensible, Rat Scabies and Paul Gray, they are the ones having the last laugh and have left their old rivals for dead, in certain respects, quite literally!
