Pretty sad, he got Alzheimer's at a really early age and couldn't play the guitar anymore.

(No direct link, was on the official Facebook page moments ago with a statement from Angus)

interesting. a lot of alzeimers patients can live for a long time with the illness, they usually die due to a fall(because their nurse was lazy/busy and didnt care for them properly)

its possible the alcohol abuse fucked his liver up too i guess

RIP, the first band I fell in love with

Epic band. I think I will go down Memory Lane by listening to their music this weekend. This dying thing sucks, but I guess he lived a good life for a while. Thanks for the update.

oh and btw TC i just referred to it as alzheimers myself because you did but its likely he had another form of dementia, when alcohol abuse is the cause. there's many types of dementia and alzeimers is just the classic example people usually think of

sorry to be a know-it-all but theres a lot of misinformation about dementia out there

R.I.P. Got to see him (and the rest of the band) on the Black Ice tour. Was a stadium show and one hell of a show at that.

Is Angus the only long time member remaining in the band now? Damn shame.

depends how you look at it.

Bon was the original singer and got them famous(he was also better) but Brian has been there for oh, 37 of the band's 45 year existence?

First of all, it's just Axl. And that was just for the remainder of the tour.

Bon Scott-era AC/DC is one of the greatest rock bands of all time and while Malcolm and Angus are equally credited for writing, it's widely acknowledged that Malcolm was the larger creative force and responsible for a FUCKTON of their best riffs. Angus also claims Malcolm could play circles around him.

RIP to the founding member of the band that made me play music.

This is a meme btw and is absolutely not true of 70s AC/DC. Seriously, those records are A LOT harsher and more raw than people seem to remember them; the band's stadium career that followed Bon's death sort of eclipsed their roots in disgusting noisey racket.
