I really enjoyed this interview ❤

[@MaximRecoil]

I wish Brian Johnson still had his voice from when he was with Geordie and when he sang on the Back in Black album. After Back in Black his voice was never as good again. Back then he had some gravel in his voice but he could hit highs cleanly. It reminds me of Axl Rose when he was with Hollywood Rose. His voice was still amazing on Appetite for Destruction, but he never hit highs as high or as cleanly as he did in previous years (listen to Rocker by Hollwood Rose for example). However, unlike Axl Rose, Brian Johnson's voice has remained relatively stable since For Those About to Rock and still sounds good. On the recently released Power Up album he sounds the same as he did 25 years ago on Ballbreaker, which is beyond amazing for a 73-year-old. Axl's voice on the other hand, has sounded terrible since at least 2000.

It would've sucked to be in Geordie and watch this guy make millions hahahaha

[@Greg_Chase]

A tiny, tiny percentage have a recording success. To then turn it into longevity like AC/DC is pretty much unheard of. Most performing arts careers are brutally short. It is tragic, the stories of those who had a success at one point, then faded back into normalcy. Just freaking tragic. Hard for the members of Geordie, but you can rattle off thousands of performers who did not sustain their success. it's a great hobby when you're young, it provided a great social life, but for longevity - if you're into having a predictable source of income throughout your life - avoid the performing arts careers like the plague. Consider Brian Johnson's case. He was born in 1947. He did not get a success, really, until he was 33 years old, in 1980, when he got the call from AC/DC. Very few people dream of playing in a rock band to an audience of teenagers at age 33. In our various bands, we were called 'old men' when we hit our early 20s. The thought of playing in a band at age 30 - to a bunch of 14, 15, 16, 17, 18 year-olds - nah. No thank you. Get a college degree in an area that provides an income: engineering, accounting, finance, etc. Helix was big in the early 1980s. Their lead singer, just a few years later, was working as a clerk at a 7-11. Lots of stories like that. Freaking TRAGIC. One of the keys for AC/DC's success was - they had an older family member - George Young - running a large Australian record company. Motley Crue - Nikki Sixx, the guy who started the band - his dad was a record company executive. Having older, experienced business people, who know the industry, helping you along - it's a HUGE advantage. . .

[@BWater-yq3jx]

On the other hand, Brian's success with AC/DC is the only reason most people have heard of Geordie... even though they were quite a good band.

[@Greg_Chase]

@@BWater-yq3jx My perspective was "music as a career" in response to "It would've sucked to be in Geordie and watch this guy make millions" Many of us who started playing in bands as teenagers saw the reality of the business from the inside. Tom Scholz is a great example of doing it the right way. He has a solid engineering education and played music as a serious hobby. Boston music is on the radio now and then but they had a short career. Beatlemania in the 1960s was a worldwide phenomenon and it was dead by 1970. These are very cruel, pathetically brief careers for people. Led Zeppelin - huge and now gone. Pink Floyd - huge and gone. Cream, Derek and the Dominos, and Clapton's namesake band - huge and gone. If you enter the music 'business' with a good attitude - "this is a serious hobby and if I have a short run of success, I'll declare victory and move on with my life" - yeah, sure, go for it. But HAVE A PLAN 'B'. Have an education and a fallback career. The record companies, promoters, managers - there is so little success in the business that they are geared to suck all the life and money of any small measure of success that comes their way, and the artists are the LAST people they care about. Having a relative you're on good relationship terms with who is in the business - see Lenny Kravitz, Nikki Sixx, the Young family of AC/DC - it is a real benefit, because the promoters, managers and record companies will be **much more careful** not to screw with band members who have industry contacts that have power in the business. Even the greedy managers/promoters/record companies worry about professional reputation. But even that is not foolproof. Even when the stars line up, popular interest in music shifts constantly and selling your music can be easy one year and impossible the next year. It's not a good business if you feel that you need a long term, stable source of income. It is a great way to have an interesting, fulfilling social life when you're younger. But the music business is a kid's game, mostly. Jazz musicians keep going but they do not sell out concerts at the peak of their popularity - they live hand-to-mouth. .

Andy UK bet this guy's brains's made out of gray matter and yours out of pure shit 😉

[@jolinkarlsson8569]

Leigh Clayton congrats that’s awsome

[@chairboy]

Cheers Steve.. Thanks for posting! Great little interview

[@mickharrison7262]

What a nice fella. Brilliant

[@gedscouserable]

Brian, Bruce Lee and Chuck Norris playing football against the Italians. Please make a film about this!

[@djxjxixsmjxjskjzxn1853]

Brian has played footie with Chuck Norris and beat the Italians? As if he wasn't a big enough legend with ACDC: What a story!

[@lewstone1934]

He reminds me of Don Powell of Slade - a rock legend with a lovely down-to-earth spirit. The sort of guys who never forget where they came from and would always have time for you.

[@venderstrat]

Brian - right place, right time. Good on ya.

[@ronpaul8643]

Bon would be very happy and thankful Ac/dc back in black great rock N roll thank you’s

[@alanpowell24]

Brian always comes across a such a nice, down-to-earth guy………..

[@FuturePast2019]

11:39 Football (Newcastle Utd) is his passion. Music is his love.

[@lesorgemusicBMI]

Spent time with AC/DC and Brian. Bon Scott and I have a mutual friend. Brian's talkative and nice. Now in 2023 I read his 2nd book and it's great !

11:02 looks the spit of Harry H. Corbett.

[@jakartaman3365]

I was thinking the exact same thing, only he's ( Brian ) a little shorter.

[@mrmitch5054]

He’s a great guy this fella

[@Mandilore89]

2:24 Holy shit! That fucking TV! That almost looks like a modern flat screen TV! But this is back in fucking 1983!

[@bsnf-5]

Yeah, this almost feels like a prep, futuristic TV for its time, that is for surr.

[@cbdoil4082]

I was lucky and privileged enough to go see Billy Joel at Madison Square Garden in 2006. His guest appearance was AC/DC. Hands down they were by far the best live appearance I ever saw. And most likely ever will!

[@disprogreavette8545]

I've caught them a few times over the years but when they played at the SARSFEST thing in Toronto in 2003(?) it was something else. AC/DC, Rush, The Guess Who with the Rolling Stones headlining and AC/DC owned the show in front of a crowd of roughly 500 000 people. Luckily it's on KZbin so I can go back and watch it.
