[QUOTE=angusmaster]Ive got another Question (im just tryin to learn alot about AC/DC)What happened to Phil Rudd , the drummer , he was really good.[/QUOTE]

Hes with the band currently.

He left the band after the death of Bon Scott (the lead singer at the time), and I think he went off and invested in an airline or something? Well, the band later on decided that they wanted the old passion of AC/DC back, and replaced Chris slade with Phil Rudd again, seens as he accepted.

Well , I always thought Phil was the best , so im glad hes back (i knew he was back cause i saw some footage of them doin thunderstruck in 2003)thanks for the info

Phil is the bald one isnt he? :evil:

I have the ACDC live dvd that you get at wal-mart

AC/DC RULE!!! I love all there work and their song never get old....Angus has great skill in switching chords and his solos are very sick as we'll. I personally like them better than Metallica. Old skool rock with minor pentatonics long live this band! :D

No, Phil Rudd left the band after the Flick Of The Switch album and was replaced by Simon Wright, He was with the band for Fly On The Wall, Flow Up Your Video, and Who Made Who. Simon was replaced by Chris Slade on The Razors Edge, then Chris was replaced by Phil Rudd who is currently with the band.

Fair do's.

You hear so many versions of events that you forget which ones which.

Simon wright always wanted to be that powerful drummer he was in Dio. I doubt he enjoyed playing simple 4/4 beats with the band.

bon scott could sing like no other. i think the pre brian johnson albums are at least 5x better than those with johnson. bons personality just fit the band better, and i think the songwriting was a lot more creative (the high voltage version of the jack is awesome). but angus is a pretty amazing guitarist and puts on a pretty **** cool show at concerts. i think ac/dc is still an amazing band, but was much better pre 1980.

That concert was back in 1991 , they got Phil back after that.

I dont see why he couldnt play more than simple beats with AC/DC

AC/DC would suck with good drumming. Like Led Zeppelin on Dazed and Confused, I love LZ and Bonham, but the drums when they first come in ruin the song.

Exactly.

Just wasn't their style...

Are you saying good drumming wasn't Zeppelins or AC/DC's style?

Im saying that complex beats and song long drum solo's wasn't AC/DC's style.

It suited Zeppelin.

Complex drummin WAS Led Zeppelin's style but was NOT Ac/dc's

AC/DC is pretty good, but since they have ANOTHER album coming out, they should mix things up more. For example, Ride On is one of my favorite songs by them, and it has a completely different tone and feel than the rest of the Dirty Deeds album.

Still, it wouldnt hurt Phil to mix it up a little every once and awhile.

Aye.

On some of the quicker tracks his work is pretty decent, but nothing special.

The drumming wasn't meant to be good, the guitars' supposed to.

his point was that Phil was the only one on that album that didnt show much talent.

Well in Phil's defence, he has some pretty good fills.

[QUOTE=angusmaster]That concert was back in 1991 , they got Phil back after that.[/QUOTE]
yeah, Donnington, the biggest concert in history of Rock and Roll.
What was the guys name that was drumming with them then? I like him but he looked pretty old then. I doubt he could still play with them.

His name was Chris Slade, he is currently touring in Asia with the band EarthBand I think.

hahaha! EarthBand? :lol: how do you go from acdc to EarthBand?

Highly respected rock band=acdc
A joke=EarthBand

because chris Slade is a session player he played for Tom jones before AC/DC

My aim is brttbrry222

[QUOTE=MalcolmYoungRock]Tony Hawk 4 kids? What the hell?

back on topic...

Ac/dc's songs sound all the same. Same chord intro. Same drum beat. Screeching vocals enter. 1 verse, chorus another verse solo chorus end of song.

But they still sound good. Da[color=white]mn[/color] good.[/QUOTE]


TNT is in tony kawk 4, that apparently got that that well now by video game players.
