Uh Malcolm is the better guitarist and even Angus admits that.

Angus was only recruited into the band because he is a good front man / guitar soloist not because he is really good at guitar. The rhythm guitar is unbelievably good. Have you ever tried playing the rhythm?

Well it's a lot more complex than Angus's guitar work.


And what's your problem with AC/DC? It's a good band...

And to say the drummer isn't good is heresy Stern%20Smile




Well I didn't know about Malcolm, But AC/DC is not a good band at all.
And the reason for me saying that the drummer isn't good is because it's true I mean i've only played drums for a year and 2 months, and I could beat out there drummer without a sweat.




LOL

Just because you don't like a band doesn't mean the band is bad.


Yeah I don't like them, but it's a fact that AC/DC isn't good.

LOLAnd are you saying that because you like them that they're goood?


LOL
I'm not that hypocritical

I think I remember reading somewhere that when a true AC/DC fan is told that AC/DC made 10 similar sounding albums, the fan would say "no...they made 11"

If this poll is to 'certify' that they are not eligible for PAs I agree that they should not be included.No way,no how. But,they are a great hard rock band and I enjoy a lot of their early,Bon Scott records.Back in Black is the only post Scott album that I have some time for.

Do 'The Stanley' otherwise I'll thrash you with some rhubarb.

Ok whatever man, I don't know what you're talking about or what you're trying to get at by saying that there alblums all sound the same which they do, which by the way makes it really boring.

Hi Rico,

Oh dear.I hoped that wasn't the case.Starting the poll with Almost Good was a bit of a giveaway but I give it the benefit of doubt.I dislike this type of thread and this type of negativity on PAs

Whereas I don't listen to them any more, I spent most of my teenage years listening to AC/DC, so could never vote against them...

Good band, but not my cup of tea, too straightforward.

AC/DC is enjoyable in small doses. Despite the fact they made the same album again and again for decades, their worthwhile material is pretty good and it turn it up every now and then. They have good riffs, though, and sometimes I need to counterbalance all of my airy-fairy prog with something a little more down to earth.

It's innapropiate to make a poll like this. The HIGHEST rate here is almost good....

Dude..... AC/DC rock!!!!! Clap

You may not like the band, but you shouldn't bash them with a ridiculous poll like this, and surely you may think that if you're in a prog site everyone will agree with your point of view about the band.... Dead

Closed because of this.
 
Show some respect for people's tastes and opinions,even if they are different than yours.
 
And don't make a poll with the intention of insulting someone again,or I will take more drastic measures.
