When Brian Johnson had to step away from AC/DC in 2016 due to health problems, the band recruited Axl Rose to finish out their tour. Interestingly, the job could have gone to a very different singer. Nic Cester, frontman for the Australian rock band Jet, has confirmed that he auditioned for the gig. In a conversation with radio station Triple J, he recalled how it all went down. “I was staying with my in-laws and I got up in the morning and read the paper and it said that Brian Johnson was not in the band anymore,” Cester remembered (as transcribed by Consequence). “I remember saying to my fat...

Original AC/DC singer Dave Evans picked which of the band’s vocalists he thinks is the best, though he argued that “real” fans should appreciate all of the members past and present. Evans was one of the founding members of AC/DC in late 1973, along with Malcolm and Angus Young, drummer Colin Burgess and bassist Larry Van Kriedt. Evans sang on the band’s first official single “Can I Sit Next to You, Girl,” which featured “Rocking in the Parlour” as the b-side. Bon Scott replaced Evans as the group’s vocalist in the fall of 1974, and released a handful of successful albums with them throughout t...

Don’t go into the upcoming Bon Scott film expecting a point-by-point retelling of the late AC/DC frontman’s life. Instead, The Kid From Harvest Road is being described as a “fictionalized narrative.” The producers wanted to “capture the essence of Bon Scott’s early life in Fremantle [Australia] in a fictionalized narrative set in the 1960s,” Halo Films said in an official statement. “By drawing inspiration from the stories and atmosphere of the time period, rather than attempting a biopic, the film can offer a more imaginative exploration of Scott’s character and experiences.” Stephen Belowsky...

The new film about AC/DC’s Bon Scott won’t be a biopic. While The Kid From Harvest Roadwill be set in the 1960s, during the late musician’s coming-of-age years, producers have insisted it won’t be a strict retelling of his life. HALO Films said in a statement, “The producers behind The Kid From Harvest Road are incredibly humbled and grateful for the overwhelming media attention the recent announcement of the film’s development has garnered. The enthusiasm and support from audiences and media outlets alike reaffirm the belief in the power of storytelling.” “However, they are at pains to expres...
