Axl confirmed as new singer for AC/DC tour (June 1, 2016: US dates announced)

[JAEBALL]

I don't think any rock fan could go to see AC/DC and not have a great time, and if by some miracle, Brian Johnson was to return you would be in for an amazing show!

Anyway, that aside, it's not gonna happen.  Surely Brian's just got to follow the doctors advice.  The hearing aid guy might be legit, but at the end of the day he's just a  businessman who's interested in exploiting the situation to raise his company's profile.  It'd be a sad day if Brian were to go deaf through following the advice of some opportunist.

I am quite sure it would be great night out with Brian... but I'm a GNR guy.. and only shelled out the big bucks because it's Axl.

I get that, but I'm with JAEBALL on this.  I'm going to see Axl more than anything else.

Frankly, my show will be 2 weeks after my 39th birthday.  And I will have gone 39 years never having bought a ticket to see AC/DC until now.

I have never seen so many positive comments about Axl on that youtube video (htgth included )

The band sounds excellent on the video.

Some Axl pics with fans I've seen on Twitter.

A pic of the three of them backstage would have been cool.

They've been posting backstage photos from the GN'R shows on Nightrain. I think chances are good we'll get such a picture if they plan on continue posting pictures from each show.

His girlfriend I think.

His girlfriend, Meegan.
She was his girlfriend back in the 80s/90s. When he divorced Perla they got back together. He talks about her in his book.

If anyone's curious (like I was) about the text on Axl's t-shirt, it says:

Billions will see that the future
lies in doing more with less.
Imagination is the new currency.
These are the words of my
generation.

Really excited about this now! Only going for Axl, but should be a blast by all accounts.

Got quite the week - Public Image Ltd tonight, ACDC Thursday, Neil Young Friday- legends week!

Then my Gran's 90th birthday party on Sunday. Should be a bit different!

Love all your posts and pics - big smiles and happiness all around!

Getting back to the topic - "Axl confirmed as new singer for AC/DC tour (June 1: US dates announced)

I gotta tell you that I had such an amazing time in Leipzig, Germany. I met sooo many cool fans who didn't trade in their tickets. We had so much fun dancing and singing together. It was an outdoor concert with general admission so we could move around freely like a festival. I hope that the US venues consider changing the floor seating to GenAdmin. It's so much better socially than being confined to a 2by2 space...claustrophobia and overusing of cellphones ensues which leads to isle dancing and grumpy security.

I know not all can be outside like Leipzig, but bowls can at least get rid of the chairs on the floors for true fans to rock out )) Oh and btw I hope they do the same for the GNR shows in NA because really scheduled seating, especially on floors, is so kindergarten. What are we supposed to do? Sit there and clap hands for our teachers?

Girl's got rhythm!!!! Girl's got rythm!!!!

I believe this is what they told the families of the victims that were trampled to death at The Who concert in Cincinnati back in 1979 that was GA.

They should have just toughened up.

[KillerK]

Toughened up for sure! I mean the seating is so policed in the US compared to Euro.

IMO and experience, people don't need to be policed like that - it's just a few jerks that ruin it for the rest of us. I know and believe after my experience in Germany that we can all live, dance, and love rock n' roll in a peaceful way. We don't need to trample and try to out do each other for front row for it. In fact, I saw that at the Leipzig concert first hand when I arrived late - knew I wasn't getting front row - respected space and time - went up in the end with my bracelet - held respects - and danced the last song that way -

And, I was't the only one. Other fans told me after the concert that people were sharing front row and not jostling or pissing on one another (for which I'm sad to say that I've seen and felt in the past).

I hope the venues in the US can recognize that we have a 2016 crowd and not a 1979 Cincinnati crowd with a more apt mind for peacefulness than ever before.

Share - in - the - space - and - the - love
