AC/DC

When two Australian brothers decided to form a hard rock band in 1973, they unknowingly laid the foundations for one of the most important groups to emerge out of Australia for the next few decades. The band, AC/DC, has experienced its ups and downs, such as the death of its grizzle-voiced lead singer Bon Scott in 1980, but the group has proven itself time and time again to be one of the most rollicking acts around. The band's live shows are rousing affairs, full of pyrotechnics, stage decoration and intrepid stage acrobatics courtesy of lead guitarist Angus Young, who normally sports a school boy costume whilst performing.
