I’ll still rock out to AC/DC. Call me lame, but their my favorite.

AC/DC stirs a visceral reaction in me. I've done a lot of head banging and air guitar to those riffs. Farewell Malcolm.

Wow! I knew he was in bad shape (dementia), but this was still a surprise. I was a huge AC/DC fan in high school and college. I still am. Their songs are so recognizable even before the vocals kick in. AC/DC, Guns-N-Roses and Jackyl were about the only thing I listened to from the ages of 16-18. Malcolm will be missed R.I.P

RIP.  

AC/DC is still one of my all time favorite bands.  I remember seeing them in the old Jacksonville arena (Ballbreaker Tour) and remember leaving that concert with my ears ringing.

Whilst I never got into ACDC they were a huge influence musically. Several of the early rap hits like LL Cool J and the beastie boys used ACDC samples and several others were influenced by the guitar use and put them into their songs.
