    Cool experiment. Why not. Either that or cancel the shows.

    Maybe I should go to Aarhus. Never cared for ACDC... but with Axl singing it could be cool

    Been an AC/DC fan all my life, first through my uncle who gave me his powerage and if you want blood vinyl records, and after hearing whole lotta Rosie I was hooked. Then got into razors edge and back in black and followed them right through. There last rock or bust was great but without IMO the most important ingredient Malcolm young it didn't resonate. But now to continue without Brian Johnson is where I jump ship , no Thankyou, yeh axl rose can sing(sort of!), but it's not AC/DC, I was lucky to catch them in 2000 in birmingham uk, and is one of the best gigs I've seen, Brian may not be Bon Scott but he was integral, could it a day Angus, let the legacy live on...you've been a huge part of my life...don't let it become a disjointed farewell....

    Not really an Ac/dc fan but I think axl sounds fantastic!

    Dirty deeds done dirt cheap…

    I guess fans just want to see the music they love. Not caring who performs it. One original member is just fine it seems. Axl did it with GnR, and now Angus with AC/DC. I would attend for the novelty and to see Axl perform Bon material.

    ^^Powerage and If You Want Blood were my first AC/DC albums bought after seeing them open for Aerosmith in 1978.

    Axl almost sounds like Brian on Back in Black here.... Malcolm`s backing vocals is what I miss.... Malcom and Cliff sounded great together....

    My favorite Cliff/Malcom singing

    I wasn't too keen on Axl replacing Brian for the 2016 Rock Or Bust tour when the news broke out a few months ago. Seeing the the 2 videos above and this one here... He can really pull it off and I am impressed. Even though I like Guns N'Roses and Axl was such a dick for ruining the band back in the day from his own horseshit.

    I was absolutely surprised to how well Axl sang and suited AC DC ,especially after watching the pathetic effort he did fronting GNR at the Bridge School Benefit show,I honestly thought it was vocal cremation for the man but looks like that is far from the case

    The thing I'll miss most from Brian (other than serving him food a long time ago) is his banter in between songs with his heavy accent. Half the time I couldn't understand a word he was saying but it fun hearing what he had to say.

    Whatever kind of vocal training hes done this past year needs to be kept up. He sounds amazing with both bands.
