Saw Colin in a shitty little pub in London. He anecdoted as much as he sang, it was THE best gig I've ever been too. Felt like a mate in the pub

I am a 100 percent sure that both "Voice N Facial Recognition will confirm that "Colin Hay" of "Men at Work" N Bon Scott of ACDC R the same exact person! And that will also confirm too that Morgan Freeman is Jimi Hendrix and that Lady Gaga is Amy Winehouse too! Bon Scott is alive and well! He is Colin Hay of "Men at Work". He had to hangup his image with ACDC because he hated being on the road and the demands of being on Tour from Country to Country! He wanted to make music on his own terms and traveled on tour at his own convenience and wanted to be around his family. And is it coincidental that all three burst on to the Scene shortly after the passing of these famous musical icons? Sincerely, Patrick S.N. Iriarte "Nostradamus of the Marianas"

I am a 100 percent sure that both "Voice N Facial Recognition will confirm that "Colin Hay" of "Men at Work" N Bon Scott of ACDC R the same exact person! Bon Scott is alive and well! He is Colin Hay of "Men at Work". He had to hangup his image with ACDC because he hated being on the road and the demands of being on Tour from Country to Country! And being away for long periods at a time. And he just wanted to slowdown and relax more and make music on his own terms and traveled on tour at his own convenience and wanted to be around his family more. (Similar to Peter Criss of the Band "KISS".) And what are the odds both Rock Icons are famous Aussies and their families have ancestral roots with Scottland? And even though there looks like a difference in their date of birth which is a common practice when changing to a new identity. And the same can be said for Morgan Freeman who is Jimi Hendrix and Lady Gaga is Amy Winehouse too! And what do all three of these people have in common they just happen to all burst on the Social scene shortly thereafter these legendary Icons had supposedly passed on! And the song itself "Back in Black" was his "Signature resignation" from ACDC! Because if you listen closely even though Brian Johnson sang it after the so call passing of Bon Scott it sounds like he is describing how he was to make his grand departure and exit from the band with the following statement in the lyrics "Back in black" I hit the sack". (He is describing how he would be found deseased in his sleep, and "I am back, yes I am back" he is celebrating his breaking away from the Band and celebrating his freedom and Independence and returning back to his life on the streets! And away from the spotlight! "And I have got "Nine lives" (He is talking about how he had narrowly escaped a near death experience in a bike accident and alcoholism and how he was going to reinvent himself again!) And in the lyrics "I got Cats eyes!" ( This was the only way that you would know it is him if you were smart enough to spot him again! Because he had this Eye Condition that look like they are moving independently of each other in different directions! And I feel that Bon Scott continued on to be a somewhat "Ghost writer" for the Band. Because almost every song ACDC made after Bon Scotts supposed passing, there seems to be his signature personality trait mark on every Song with ACDC after the supposed passing of Bon Scott. So its up to Colin Hay to admit who he really is to include Morgan Freeman and Lady Gaga! And are there any pictures or videotapes of them in a Coffin at their funeral service??? And can you imagine if they all decided to go on tour their new name would be "Grievance Clean Detox Revival. Sincerely, Patrick S.N. Iriarte "Nostradamus of Marianas"
