RIP.  Was never really an AC/DC fan, but can't deny their impact on rock music.

I wonder what if anything that does to their plans...

Probably nothing because he's been out of the band for a while, they already moved on after he'd been diagnosed with dementia. Poor guy. Last I heard about him was that he didn't know anyone anymore.

Yeah, I was thinking more from an emotional point of view, but you're probably right.  Sad either way.

Awful few weeks for Angus, losing 2 brothers in as many weeks.

Yeah he was great.  Great band & unique for their era (mid 70s/early 80s?).  64 is not old for that kinda stuff.

Never a massive fan of AC/DC, but since the band I'm in starting covering Whole Lotta Rosie & You Shook Me I've grown a massive appreciation for the groove their songs had. And for that I salute Malcolm!

Yep, he was razor sharp, like a machine, but with massive groove and feel. The guy was lightning in a bottle.
