AC/DC post:
Today it is with deep heartfelt sadness that AC/DC has to announce the passing of Malcolm Young.
Malcolm, along with Angus, was the founder and creator of AC/DC.
With enormous dedication and commitment he was the driving force behind the band.
As a guitarist, songwriter and visionary he was a perfectionist and a unique man.
He always stuck to his guns and did and said exactly what he wanted.
He took great pride in all that he endeavored.
His loyalty to the fans was unsurpassed.
.
As his brother it is hard to express in words what he has meant to me during my life, the bond we had was unique and very special.
He leaves behind an enormous legacy that will live on forever.
Malcolm, job well done.

It's a very, very sad day. God speed Malcolm.

Damn. Well glad I got to see them twice. Once 10 years ago and earlier this year right before Brian lost most his hearing and left the band.

RIP. Always loved some ACDC.

Wasn't he having issues with dementia the last couple of years? Sad to hear, glad he's not having to deal with all that any longer.

Yeah he was suffering from dementia since 2013 if I recall. They kept touring and pushing on. His other aspects of life really suffered, but the band was able to keep going somehow.
