Good morning!

* My friend Darren Tanner and I saw AC/DC open for Aerosmith in 1978 at the Salt Palace. Nobody knew who they were, but they blew the headliners off the stage. I became a big fan, and when Bon Scott died in 1980, some friends of mine and I attempted to lower the American flag in front of our school. That wasn’t viewed with approval at Vogelweh American High School in West Germany, so we were thwarted.

We were all skeptical after Bon was replaced, but when “Back in Black” was released, it rocked our young world. I still remember the first time hearing the opening track and it still gives me chills…

You’re only young, but you’re gonna die

How was your weekend?
