Found this off of AC/DC`s facebook page. Sad.

RIP.

Digging through the archives, from my special edition of "Back in Black" (includes DVD documentaries)...

RIP "Hells Bells+ is one of the tunes from way back I consider a classic

"Hells Bells" is often the first song to our workouts, also a few others off "Back in Black" (the entire album is classic, HB being the first track). That concert version sounds really good (if a bit fast).

He was only 64! That's way too young.

I remember they played here in 1997. The whole band was trying to sober up, so they suddenly made their shows with no alcohol sales. The failed to let anybody know ahead of time. People were pissed. I'm sure they all partied very hard for years. Sometimes that can take some years off of your life. RIP.

Whole Lotta Rosie, Shoot to Thrill, Big Balls, Girls Got Rhythm, Have a Drink on Me, Shot Down in Flames, were classic jams. All speaker testers.

Loved AC/DC

RIP Malcolm

Last time AC/DC played in Baton Rouge was in 1982 and I believe they've been banned ever since (read the fan reviews below to see why)...

Fan reviews:

By Me, El Mirage, AZ/USA:
I had just turned 15, and this was the first rock concert I ever attended. The pot smoke was so thick in the air, it's amazing anybody survived the performance. After the concert, unconscious people littered the sidewalks surrounding the Centroplex, and this received heavy local new coverage for the next week. I think this was the first, and last, time AC/DC ever performed in BR.

By Cliff N Beth, Still Kickin (Norco) (Destrehan):
This was the last rock concert at the Baton Rouge Centroplex because of the destruction caused to the place by the rowdy crowd. Let there be rock, hells bells, highway to hell, whole lot of rosie, rocker, back in black. rock and roll ain't noise polution, for those about to rock, it did not stop. Cliff Bourgeois Beth Fernandez Mark Brady Walter Chaison

By JM Ortego, Baton Rouge La:
It was a great rock show. They were about at their peak. Because of the underage kids drunk and passed out it did bring a lot of negative coverage. This was the last General Admission concert at the Centroplex. It was all assigned seating after that. The only thing that would have made the show better for me would have been Bon Scott.

I was 14 years old, no way my parents were going to let me go nor would they give me $10.00 for a ticket. After reading those fan reviews, it was probably for the better. I do remember seeing this on the news and the kids talking about it at school.

Such a shame, best gig i ever witnessed (back in '78) and I've seen many bands pre 1983.

Only good side of this is that he and his family have escaped the 'Highway to Hell' , the road to advanced dementia.

I saw them Live at Wembley in the 90's, great gig but I had tinnitus for 3 days afterwards.

RIP.

His guitar rifts were just pure, raw energy! I felt like my car could drive without gas if I just played AC/DC in the tape deck.

Oh damn.

First concert: AC/DC Who made Who. 10th row. 15 years old.

Ears rang for three days.

Saw them many times after that.

Older brother George Young died recently, too.
