    Thank God Bon Scott came to his senses and hooked up with the Young brothers.

    Interesting that the guitar player is playing an SG like Angus. I never knew that was Bon singing that song but now that it is pointed out it is so obvious.


    I absolutely loved that song when I was younger.

    OK, that is just too bizarre. I think I might have to have a little lie-down.

    I remember when that song came out. The Foundations are the group that made it a hit.
    It's wild seeing that cute little Bon Scott guy in tight double knit pants. Who would have guessed there was a tiger waiting to be uncaged? :

    Nope. There was only one person on the side. Looks like you've been practicing the Bon Scott/Warren method yourself.

    Bon looks bored. I'll bet he was looking forward to booze and groupies afterwards.

    Diggin' the SG that the guitar player was playing, though.:

    Ibanez RG 570 with a bridge Invader
