Transcript
- 0:00SPEAKER_00: What up?
- 0:00SPEAKER_00: It's Max Portnoy from the band Tala and you're watching CMS TV
- 0:05[music]
- 0:20SPEAKER_00: In music news I'm sure you're aware that Cliff Williams bassist of ACDC has decided
- 0:27SPEAKER_00: to call it quits What?
- 0:29SPEAKER_00: Yes
- 0:30SPEAKER_00: the band's just getting started he said ACBC is now a new animal yeah so
- 0:37SPEAKER_00: after this current tour is over he's done should they just stop yeah I think so it's
- 0:43SPEAKER_00: over I mean who's left there's nobody left thanks everybody's gone
- 0:49SPEAKER_00: I mean,
- 0:49SPEAKER_00: it's kind of funny that Axl Rose is involved with ACDC when he carried on ACDC as
- 0:57SPEAKER_00: the sole member.
- 0:59SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 1:00SPEAKER_00: And he carried on Guns N' Roses as the sole member.
- 1:04SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 1:05SPEAKER_00: Now, Angus is the sole member.
- 1:08SPEAKER_00: Is he going to carry on ACDC a la GNR?
- 1:15SPEAKER_01: I can't...
- 1:18SPEAKER_01: you know what dude if you'd asked me
- 1:20SPEAKER_01: a year ago I would have said absolutely no fucking chance now who knows I mean
- 1:30SPEAKER_01: who I I he's gonna do something and he probably owns
- 1:35SPEAKER_00: the ACDC name well I'm sure he does I mean between he
- 1:38SPEAKER_00: and his his you know his brother who's pretty much a vegetable
- 1:42SPEAKER_00: at this point Jesus what's true and
- 1:47SPEAKER_01: Man, that's a little rough.
- 1:48SPEAKER_01: It's rough, but it's true.
- 1:51SPEAKER_01: Man, oh man.
- 1:54SPEAKER_01: I just can't fucking...
- 1:57SPEAKER_01: I can't see it, but why not?
- 2:02SPEAKER_00: I mean, look at Frankie Benally put together a lineup of Quiet Riot.
- 2:07SPEAKER_00: He's the sole member of that band.
- 2:09SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 2:10SPEAKER_00: And he wasn't even the original guy I know,
- 2:12SPEAKER_00: there's no original members And then,
- 2:15SPEAKER_00: you know,
- 2:16SPEAKER_00: of course,
- 2:16SPEAKER_00: Bobby Blotzer doing his abortion Well,
- 2:19SPEAKER_00: that's a good band Yeah,
- 2:20SPEAKER_01: right It's a good band It's not Rat No,
- 2:24SPEAKER_01: it's not Rat, I just said it's a good band Yeah Well, but you know what, dude?
- 2:29SPEAKER_01: In today's world, who the fuck knows?
- 2:31SPEAKER_01: I mean, if Angus...
- 2:37SPEAKER_01: I guess my question is is how much do any of the other guys in ACDC matter
- 2:43SPEAKER_01: and my truthful answer is not much you know after
- 2:51SPEAKER_01: Malcolm was
- 2:51SPEAKER_01: the big one I think other than Angus Malcolm was the big one to go
- 2:57SPEAKER_01: and without Malcolm you know you sort of change the the sound
- 3:01SPEAKER_01: a little bit I thought rocker bus had a weird sound
- 3:04SPEAKER_00: to it you know you don't think you don't think Brian Johnson mattered I think
- 3:12SPEAKER_01: they've replaced singers before twice and I think people have always adapted to that
- 3:20SPEAKER_01: and admittedly my favorite era of ACDC is Brian Johnson
- 3:24SPEAKER_01: I'm not a big fan of the Bon Scott era and I know
- 3:27SPEAKER_01: that makes me fucking anti whatever but I love Brian as far as being the singer
- 3:33SPEAKER_01: but I think Brian has sucked for a lot
- 3:35SPEAKER_00: of years you know just being honest alright well let me just put it this way
- 3:42SPEAKER_00: if Angus obviously who has the guitar sound if he were to assemble a new lineup
- 3:51SPEAKER_01: Okay, well, Chris Slade will stay.
- 3:53SPEAKER_00: Well, regardless if it's Chris Slade or anybody else, but he assembles a new lineup.
- 3:58SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 3:59SPEAKER_00: Say, and let's just use Joel from Airborne.
- 4:02SPEAKER_00: Just use him, for example.
- 4:04SPEAKER_00: Okay.
- 4:04SPEAKER_00: He's very ACDC-ish sounding singer.
- 4:08SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 4:08SPEAKER_00: Okay, so he kind of breathes a little new life into the band.
- 4:13SPEAKER_00: He's a little bit younger now.
- 4:15SPEAKER_00: he has the sound he's got the attitude you know obviously Airborne is
- 4:20SPEAKER_00: a is like ACDC almost a clone almost yeah uh and and brings
- 4:28SPEAKER_00: in some other competent players would you accept that at ACDC if they say recorded
- 4:35SPEAKER_00: a I'm not even gonna go with a whole record maybe a single or two that takes off
- 4:43SPEAKER_00: that sounds very traditional ACDC would people accept it?
- 4:51SPEAKER_01: I want the truth I think that more people would accept a totally unknown singer
- 4:57SPEAKER_01: than somebody that is even remotely established I think if they went
- 5:01SPEAKER_01: with some fucking guy if they went the journey route and said we heard this guy
- 5:06SPEAKER_01: on fucking YouTube he sounded like the combination of Brian and Bond
- 5:11SPEAKER_01: that we were looking for
- 5:13SPEAKER_01: so we brought him in and he fits I think they would do well I honestly do think
- 5:19SPEAKER_01: that they would do fine with just Angus and whoever I honestly don't think
- 5:25SPEAKER_01: the bass player matters I honestly don't think the rhythm guitar player matters
- 5:31SPEAKER_01: and I know and they've proven in the past that the singer and
- 5:34SPEAKER_01: the drummer don't matter I think they could continue on playing I
- 5:41SPEAKER_01: if they had a solid record I think they could continue playing fucking 18,000
- 5:45SPEAKER_01: a night just to see Angus you don't think
- 5:50SPEAKER_00: so I don't know again I don't know I you know obviously getting back to
- 5:57SPEAKER_00: the whole Axl Rose connection with ACDC
- 6:04SPEAKER_00: Axl and company were here
- 6:05SPEAKER_00: in Chicago last week didn't even
- 6:11SPEAKER_00: even consider going so if if ACDC came through
- 6:16SPEAKER_00: which they did twice this year didn't even it didn't even occur to me
- 6:22SPEAKER_00: to go you know what I'm gonna go out to the United Center and go see ACDC right
- 6:27SPEAKER_00: and they never don't really care well it's just because you wanted
- 6:30SPEAKER_00: to live well regardless of that that wasn't even a consideration it was just it was
- 6:35SPEAKER_00: a soldier feel yeah yeah
- 6:38SPEAKER_00: Wasn't it Soldier Field?
- 6:40SPEAKER_00: The Guns N' Roses thing was last weekend, yeah.
- 6:43SPEAKER_00: Yeah.
- 6:45SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I, you know, but you know what, dude?
- 6:48SPEAKER_01: First of all, the Guns N' Roses thing, you know, Chicago's an interesting one.
- 6:54SPEAKER_01: They played two nights there, right?
- 6:55SPEAKER_01: Mm-hmm.
- 6:56SPEAKER_00: The first night was sold out, second night half full.
- 6:59SPEAKER_01: Yeah, so it wasn't big enough for two nights.
- 7:02SPEAKER_00: No, not in a stadium of that size.
- 7:05SPEAKER_00: Right.
- 7:05SPEAKER_00: That was a huge stadium.
- 7:06SPEAKER_00: It's like 70,000 people.
- 7:09SPEAKER_01: It's a big joint to say at least.
- 7:11SPEAKER_01: That said,
- 7:12SPEAKER_01: every review I've read from every city has said that GNR has been great,
- 7:17SPEAKER_01: which is not really surprising because I've told you before,
- 7:19SPEAKER_01: I've seen the fake lineup of GNR and they were great.
- 7:23SPEAKER_01: You know, I personally...
- 7:28SPEAKER_01: while it while it pains me to to think of it and I you know I'm
- 7:33SPEAKER_01: a slash guy fucking I've seen GNR I think you've seen it once too haven't you sure
- 7:40SPEAKER_01: it's good it it was good with fucking Bumblefoot and it was good with Buckethead
- 7:45SPEAKER_01: and it was good with Richard Fortis and Brain and 15 keyboard players and
- 7:52SPEAKER_01: and you know three bassists or whatever you remember
- 7:55SPEAKER_01: when Axl first started it was really ridiculous right like two bass players two
- 8:00SPEAKER_00: keyboard players yeah it was overblown way overblown it was ridiculous but I saw
- 8:06SPEAKER_01: that show in 2002 and it fucking kicked ass more ass than they did when they were
- 8:12SPEAKER_01: a band
- 8:14SPEAKER_01: I had seen them in 91 and 92 on the Use Your Illusion tours and I saw them in 87
- 8:21SPEAKER_01: on opening for Motley on Appetite maybe it was 88 I don't remember which year it was
- 8:26SPEAKER_01: but the fucking clown lineup that Axl put together was far superior than
- 8:32SPEAKER_01: the original lineup far superior because they played the songs better you know so
- 8:40SPEAKER_01: so I think it could work and Axl proved it out with one guy he had no problem
- 8:45SPEAKER_01: at all fucking selling out you know 15 18,000 seat rooms for 10 years without Slash
- 8:53SPEAKER_01: without Duff without Adler without Izzy yeah I think Angus could absolutely carry
- 9:01SPEAKER_00: on sure hail and kill caller you're on the air
- 9:06SPEAKER_03: I don't think once Cliff is gone I don't think they can I mean it's just my opinion
- 9:11SPEAKER_03: but I don't think they should consider going on as ACDC I mean I'm kind of
- 9:16SPEAKER_03: with Chris on this one I mean Brian Johnson replacing a frontman is difficult
- 9:21SPEAKER_03: at best you can replace a drummer you can kind of get away with replacing
- 9:26SPEAKER_03: a bass player maybe but I mean it's just Angus after Cliff is gone and for me
- 9:34SPEAKER_03: Brian, you know, Johnson was the voice of ACDC.
- 9:39SPEAKER_03: I never really cared for him when Bon Scott was the lead singer.
- 9:44SPEAKER_03: And now that Brian Johnson's gone,
- 9:46SPEAKER_03: I mean, I can see bringing in Axl just, you know, like, finish out the tour.
- 9:50SPEAKER_03: But, you know, at one point, it's still ACDC.
- 9:54SPEAKER_03: I mean, all you've got left is Angus Young is the only original member.
- 9:58SPEAKER_03: And maybe if they want to bring in the guy from Airborne, well, that's fine.
- 10:02SPEAKER_03: I'm not saying he should retire.
- 10:04SPEAKER_03: just retire the ACDC name and put together a whole new project whether it's the guy
- 10:10SPEAKER_03: from Airborne or whether it's Axl Rose or whoever it won't matter because
- 10:15SPEAKER_00: the name is the brand and the brand is everything look
- 10:18SPEAKER_00: at Bobby Blotzer Bobby Blotzer could go off and do something else but in this day
- 10:23SPEAKER_00: and age where there's no record deals and there's no radio play
- 10:27SPEAKER_00: and there's no promotion and there's no nothing a new project won't do shit

- 11:08SPEAKER_01: When Bobby was doing the Rat experience, it was making $3,500 a night.
- 11:14SPEAKER_01: All he did, didn't change a single musician, just changed the name to Rat, $20,000 a night.
- 11:20SPEAKER_00: they will go out and call it ACDC you can't just do something new it's never going
- 11:26SPEAKER_00: to take off everybody recognizes ACDC the name but if he went out
- 11:32SPEAKER_00: as Angus Young Project or whatever the case may be nobody will give
- 11:36SPEAKER_00: a shit he'd be playing the House of Blues at best
- 11:40SPEAKER_01: the Angus Young Project would maybe command $20,000 a night ACDC commands a mil two
- 11:49SPEAKER_01: a night
- 11:55SPEAKER_00: It's not only about the money it's about the exposure and about the profile and
- 12:00SPEAKER_01: the name and the brand If you've lived your life a certain way
- 12:07SPEAKER_01: where your job is handled a certain way where you ride in super buses
- 12:13SPEAKER_01: and first class flights and private jets and the best catering and
- 12:18SPEAKER_01: the best road crew and the best sound and the best everything as ACDC has done
- 12:25SPEAKER_01: since 1978 or whatever.
- 12:29SPEAKER_01: you know you're not gonna go back to riding in a shitty bus and fucking playing
- 12:35SPEAKER_01: in front of 3,000 people at the House of Blues you're just not gonna do
- 12:39SPEAKER_01: that he doesn't know that life well
- 12:43SPEAKER_03: then he's just you know I don't know I mean like kind
- 12:46SPEAKER_03: of like Van Halen should have done years ago he should just retire I mean I just
- 12:50SPEAKER_03: googled him he's 61 years old he worked 140 million dollars
- 12:55SPEAKER_01: the money's not you know dude
- 12:57SPEAKER_01: Dude, the money is not the deal.
- 13:00SPEAKER_01: The money is absolutely not the deal.
- 13:03SPEAKER_01: The deal is that ACDC is more than just... Look, as a fan, which I am of ACDC, I agree with you.
- 13:14SPEAKER_01: I think that it's going to be a travesty that we're going to get some fucking guy
- 13:18SPEAKER_01: from YouTube and some drummer that will probably stay with the guy
- 13:23SPEAKER_01: that they got now.
- 13:24SPEAKER_01: Chris Slade and they'll have some new rhythm guitar player
- 13:27SPEAKER_01: and some fucking bass player I agree with you that that's a fucking travesty
- 13:34SPEAKER_01: but ACDC is a business it's a business that hires fucking probably 60 to 70 people
- 13:41SPEAKER_01: when you consider management and publicity and road crew and you know staging
- 13:50SPEAKER_01: and lighting and techs and sound guys and all that shit
- 13:55SPEAKER_01: It's an entity He's not going to just say well all of you guys are fired I'm going
- 14:02SPEAKER_01: to keep 8 of you and we're going to go out and start this new project called CD80
- 14:08SPEAKER_01: or whatever and fucking go out there and play you know play for 2,000 people
- 14:15SPEAKER_01: while we build a name especially when he doesn't have to he can call it ACDC
- 14:20SPEAKER_01: and it'll still sell
- 14:22SPEAKER_01: 10,000 tickets at a minimum in every city of this country.
- 14:26SPEAKER_03: So you actually think that if Axl does not stay with the band,
- 14:30SPEAKER_03: like going in to record albums or tours after this,
- 14:35SPEAKER_03: you think if he pulls the guy from Airborne or some guy off fucking YouTube as
- 14:41SPEAKER_03: a new front man by himself and with the rest of the characters,
- 14:46SPEAKER_03: you think he can still do fucking arenas and stadiums?
- 14:50SPEAKER_00: if he if they can write or perform or record music that could get into a movie
- 14:57SPEAKER_00: or get on to some TV commercial
- 15:00SPEAKER_00: or you know I'm not I'm not even gonna include commercial radio because that's kind
- 15:07SPEAKER_00: of a dead market but even if they could do that if people could hear a new ACDC song
- 15:14SPEAKER_00: and go wow that's ACDC that's cool
- 15:19SPEAKER_03: he'd have it made well he'd have to have Axel
- 15:22SPEAKER_03: because nobody's gonna recognize another front man's voice
- 15:26SPEAKER_03: unless Brian Johnson comes back that would be
- 15:30SPEAKER_03: a saving grace Brian Johnson's hearing is back on the mend so after this tour is
- 15:37SPEAKER_03: over then it's at least plausible we can't say anything that's never gonna happen
- 15:44SPEAKER_01: at this point that day is done that day is over
- 15:47SPEAKER_01: Brian is not coming back to this band Brian has been fired they're not saying it
- 15:53SPEAKER_01: that way but that is what it is Brian has been fired and again I'm a fan rightly
- 16:00SPEAKER_01: so Brian has been fired Brian has not been a good front guy since fucking
- 16:06SPEAKER_01: the Razor's Edge in my eyes they have not done anything worth a shit since
- 16:12SPEAKER_01: the Razor's Edge and that was what 92 or something yeah
- 16:18SPEAKER_01: What have they done since?
- 16:19SPEAKER_01: Stiff upper lip?
- 16:19SPEAKER_01: That sucked.
- 16:20SPEAKER_01: Ball breaker?
- 16:21SPEAKER_01: That was fair.
- 16:22SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I agree with you.
- 16:24SPEAKER_01: You know, they haven't been good and it's been because Brian can't sing anymore.
- 16:28SPEAKER_01: And it had nothing to do with his fucking hearing.
- 16:31SPEAKER_01: It's because he can't sing anymore.
- 16:33SPEAKER_01: And I love Brian.
- 16:33SPEAKER_01: I love him to death.
- 16:34SPEAKER_01: And I've met Brian and he's a really nice guy.
- 16:38SPEAKER_01: You know, I mean, I'm not trying to shit on Brian Johnson.
- 16:41SPEAKER_01: I feel for him.
- 16:42SPEAKER_01: I feel that he got fucked over bad in this
- 16:45SPEAKER_03: Well, I mean, we all get old, and I mean, he is a singer.
- 16:49SPEAKER_03: Yeah.
- 16:49SPEAKER_03: You know,
- 16:50SPEAKER_03: and all their voices go, I mean,
- 16:52SPEAKER_03: eventually, I mean, David Lee Roth doesn't sound like David Lee Roth anymore.
- 16:55SPEAKER_03: Right.
- 16:56SPEAKER_03: You know,
- 16:57SPEAKER_03: very few of them actually can kind of,
- 16:58SPEAKER_03: you know, especially if they're, you know, like, powerful singers.
- 17:02SPEAKER_03: You know, they've got that bombastic sound.
- 17:05SPEAKER_01: I'm going to give you the formula that will set this correct.
- 17:10SPEAKER_01: Foreigner or journey?
- 17:14SPEAKER_01: both of those bands took guys that had irreplaceable vocals and found a guy
- 17:19SPEAKER_01: that not only could do it but did it better they did but they have neither one
- 17:25SPEAKER_03: of those bands either Journey with Pinero guy from the Philippines
- 17:30SPEAKER_03: or Foreigner are you know like
- 17:34SPEAKER_03: making anywhere near the kind of money they did with their original frontman.
- 17:37SPEAKER_00: I mean, they're playing those packaging tours.
- 17:39SPEAKER_00: Well, the thing is, is they're still selling sheds.
- 17:42SPEAKER_00: They're still playing sheds.
- 17:44SPEAKER_03: Yeah, packed up, yeah,
- 17:46SPEAKER_03: on package deals when they've got like two or three other bands
- 17:50SPEAKER_03: that achieved some level of success back in the day,
- 17:54SPEAKER_03: sure, because now they're pulling in three different audiences in one show.
- 17:58SPEAKER_01: Dude, Journey Headlines.
- 18:01SPEAKER_01: Journey is headlining 15,000, 16,000 a night with Panetta.
- 18:09SPEAKER_01: Why do you think Steve Perry,
- 18:10SPEAKER_01: who's been fucking edging around for a goddamn year and a half,
- 18:14SPEAKER_01: can't get that gig back?
- 18:16SPEAKER_03: Because they know they'd have to piss him more than Panetta.
- 18:20SPEAKER_03: No, I think part of that problem is because Steve Perry's a fucking asshole.
- 18:24SPEAKER_03: I mean, they...
- 18:25SPEAKER_03: I don't know if you ever watched that Behind the Music thing on VH1
- 18:30SPEAKER_03: where pretty much because he needed a hip replacement he needed something
- 18:35SPEAKER_03: and all those guys from Journey they just fucking sat around
- 18:38SPEAKER_03: with their fucking hands under their fucking asses for fucking years waiting
- 18:43SPEAKER_03: to get back to fucking work and he wouldn't fucking cooperate he wouldn't go back
- 18:50SPEAKER_03: to work and then
- 18:51SPEAKER_03: came out with some bullshit about well he never really felt like he was part of
- 18:55SPEAKER_03: the band and then I heard their manager say well that's like saying
- 18:58SPEAKER_03: the Pope never really felt Catholic
- 19:01SPEAKER_03: and they just told you know Neil Sean just doesn't want to put up
- 19:03SPEAKER_03: with his fucking his prima donna fucking bullshit anymore it's like well fuck you
- 19:07SPEAKER_03: you know stay home you know they found this fucking guy on YouTube show fucking went
- 19:12SPEAKER_03: on but I mean my point is I don't think unless they can get Axl to stay
- 19:16SPEAKER_03: on fucking board I don't really see ACDC
- 19:20SPEAKER_03: continuing on this level of success with
- 19:23SPEAKER_01: a no-name fucking front man I think they would be less successful with Axel on board
- 19:27SPEAKER_03: than with a no-name I don't know about that I do because right now it's a novelty
- 19:37SPEAKER_00: but now that Guns N' Roses is back together and Axel
- 19:40SPEAKER_00: and company are doing what Axel made himself famous for
- 19:44SPEAKER_00: with Guns N' Roses it's not going to be such a big deal
- 19:47SPEAKER_00: to see him fronting ACDC anymore
- 19:51SPEAKER_00: it's a one time occurrence you know people will go for morbid curiosity
- 19:55SPEAKER_00: the first time around second time around eh it's Axl Rose I just saw him with GNR
- 20:03SPEAKER_01: and I want to see him with GNR I don't want
- 20:05SPEAKER_01: to see Axl Rose singing Dirty Deeds I want
- 20:09SPEAKER_01: to see Axl Rose singing fucking Sweet Child
- 20:11SPEAKER_03: of Mine sure I don't know I guess you know like given the fact
- 20:17SPEAKER_03: that it's just Angus now and
- 20:21SPEAKER_03: after this tour is over you know like I said unless they can continue to pull in
- 20:25SPEAKER_03: that fucking that extra draw from you know
- 20:28SPEAKER_03: the Guns N Roses fans I think they're all fucking done I think if they try
- 20:32SPEAKER_03: to replace them with a fucking nobody or
- 20:34SPEAKER_03: a YouTuber they just you know I'm not saying they're not going
- 20:37SPEAKER_03: to try it I just I don't think it'll fucking work well the thing is is
- 20:41SPEAKER_00: if they find somebody that's a dynamic singer
- 20:44SPEAKER_00: and they can they can reinvent themselves they'll hit again
- 20:51SPEAKER_00: if whoever it is that he chooses if he chooses to go on as ACDC and finds a singer
- 20:58SPEAKER_00: that can perform the old material true to form and also come out with something
- 21:05SPEAKER_00: that is
- 21:05SPEAKER_00: catchy and catches the public eye like I said in a movie soundtrack or commercial or
- 21:12SPEAKER_00: during a sporting event or whatever where people become familiar
- 21:17SPEAKER_00: with it people will accept it they'll go oh
- 21:20SPEAKER_00: that sounds like new ACDC they're not going to say hey is that Brian Johnson hey is
- 21:25SPEAKER_00: that Cliff Williams on bass on that song no they're going to say that's
- 21:29SPEAKER_00: an ACDC song that's all they care about
- 21:34SPEAKER_03: I wish him luck but I'm not buying any Well but the thing is you're
- 21:38SPEAKER_00: a little bit too close to it as a hardcore most of our fans who listen to
- 21:42SPEAKER_00: the show they're a little more obsessive about their music than
- 21:47SPEAKER_00: the average person out there
- 21:49SPEAKER_00: but the average housewife and the average blue collar worker
- 21:53SPEAKER_00: who doesn't really pay attention to that kind of stuff they're just interested in
- 21:58SPEAKER_00: the songs that's it period they don't get into the whole personalities
- 22:02SPEAKER_00: and oh this guy was better than that guy and you know they're not into
- 22:06SPEAKER_00: that it's just hey that sounds like ACDC and that's all they care about look
- 22:13SPEAKER_00: at Bobby Blotzer
- 22:14SPEAKER_00: that's not rat but he found a band that sounds like rat
- 22:19SPEAKER_00: and people are buying it I stood there at a hotel back in March
- 22:24SPEAKER_00: and people were coming up to
- 22:26SPEAKER_00: the new singer guy saying hey Steven could you sign this
- 22:29SPEAKER_00: for me they don't know any different
- 22:35SPEAKER_03: It just surprises me that if they're that into the band they'll actually hang out in
- 22:40SPEAKER_00: the hotel room that they don't even know what the fucking guy looks like I know what
- 22:45SPEAKER_03: the guy looks like and I wouldn't even bother hanging out at the fucking hotel
- 22:49SPEAKER_00: But let me tell you something I was there in the hotel hanging out with Mick and Don
- 22:56SPEAKER_00: and people were coming up to me asking me to take a picture with them
- 22:59SPEAKER_00: because they thought I was Kip Winger
- 23:02SPEAKER_00: nice I mean that's how ridiculous it is hey Kip can I get
- 23:07SPEAKER_00: an autograph hey Kip can I get
- 23:09SPEAKER_00: a picture I
- 23:12SPEAKER_00: mean it was it was stupid it was really stupid up to
- 23:17SPEAKER_00: the fucking hotel room yeah but you know but the regardless what I'm trying
- 23:23SPEAKER_00: to say is that the average fan out there they're not that adept to what's going
- 23:29SPEAKER_00: on that's what I'm trying to say to you
- 23:31SPEAKER_00: the average person out there they're not paying
- 23:34SPEAKER_03: that much attention well I wish them luck we'll see what happens
- 23:39SPEAKER_03: but like I said you know
- 23:41SPEAKER_03: for me I mean it's just I don't know it just it just it seems like they're they're
- 23:47SPEAKER_03: morphing into a parody of their former self it is and I agree
- 23:52SPEAKER_00: and I think I think Chris will agree I agree you know people who are that big of
- 23:57SPEAKER_00: a fan will agree but the fact is is that ACD
- 24:01SPEAKER_00: is an entity it's a business as Chris said there's a lot
- 24:05SPEAKER_00: of people involved Angus is not just going to say alright ACDC is over no he's going
- 24:12SPEAKER_00: to find another angle they're going to reinvent themselves he's going
- 24:15SPEAKER_00: to find another group of guys who can fill the slot sound like ACDC
- 24:20SPEAKER_00: and they'll go out in three or four years from now if that long and be ACDC
- 24:26SPEAKER_00: and people go hey it's ACDC yep

- 24:54SPEAKER_00: and you know it'd be fine it'll it'll work people see I just don't think
- 24:58SPEAKER_01: a name will work as much as a no name
- 25:00SPEAKER_01: I think you get any sort of name whatsoever it's going to be compared
- 25:04SPEAKER_00: to everything else yeah and I agree and that was always my thought when I heard
- 25:09SPEAKER_00: that Axl Rose was going to fill in
