AC/DC are set to embark on their first tour in eight years later this month, and the legendary rock band has unveiled a photo of its revamped lineup rehearsing for the outing (see below).
The current incarnation of the band includes classic members Brian Johnson (vocals) and Angus Young (lead guitar) alongside rhythm guitarist Stevie Young, drummer Matt Laug, and bassist Chris Chaney.
Stevie, the nephew of Angus, has been with the band for several years, filling in when Malcolm Young was diagnosed with dementia and remaining with the band following Malcolm’s passing in 2017.
Laug made his debut with AC/DC at their comeback gig at the Power Trip festival in Indio, California, this past October after it was revealed that classic drummer Phil Rudd would not be performing with the band.

Eddie Wilson could tell stories about the Armadillo World Headquarters, the storied Austin music venue he founded in 1970, for hours. He’ll tell you about how “nowhere else in the world” had ever treated Charlie Daniels so good, or the “phonebook thick” contract Zz Top made him sign, or maybe the times that names like Willie Nelson, Ray Charles, and Stevie Ray Vaughan performed there in the Seventies.
“We got one wonderful picture of Frank Zappa bending over a table with a razor blade,” Wilson recounts in his Texas twang.

Legendary hard-rock band AC/DC has paid tribute to their founding member Colin Burgess, following his death aged 77.
Burgess, an Australian drummer, was recruited to form the band in 1973, along with Malcolm Young on rhythm guitar, his brother Angus on lead guitar, Dave Evans on vocals and Larry Van Kriedt on bass.
Burgess was fired from the band the following year, after his colleagues accused him of being drunk on stage; he later said his drink had been spiked. Although he left the band, he returned to fill drumming duties in 1975.
AC/DC said on their social media pages:
“Very sad to hear of the passing of Colin Burgess. He was our first drummer and a very respected musician. Happy memories, rock in peace Colin.”
No cause of death has yet been reported.

The leather jacket worn by Michael Jackson to film a Pepsi ad nearly 40 years ago has sold at a London auction for £250,000.
Jackson wore the jacket to film a Pepsi ad in 1984, hot off the heels of his record-breaking success with the Thriller album. The Pepsi ads became notorious for an incident in which Jackson’s hair caught fire while filming, leaving him with serious burns. He later said his pain medication for his injuries was what triggered his dependence on prescription medication.
The jacket was one of more than 20 items, including a jacket originally worn by George Michael and a hairpiece belonging to Amy Winehouse, plus items connected to David Bowie, Oasis and The Beatles, that were sold at auction Friday.
Other items in the auction included ones linked to Elvis Presley, Queen and Johnny Marr, formerly of The Smiths. There was also a Gibson guitar that previously belonged...

“I was emboldened to write this song because I knew we were going to do this band,” Bridgers said, in one of many references to the rock-solid friendships at the heart of her collaboration with Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker. “And if you relate to it, I’m so sorry.

AC/DC might be heading down that "Highway to Hell" again to perform some "Dirty Deeds" that will shake you "All Night Long" and leave you "Thunderstruck." While the hard rock legends have been relatively quiet since 2008, due to guitarist Angus Young's health problems, singer Brian Johnson says AC/DC is potentially touring in 2014. In a post on his site about the "Cars That Rock," the upcoming U.K. TV series he's hosting, Johnson casually mentions, "it looks very likely that we will be on the road again before the end of the year. So stand by for more music." Of course, nothing is set in stone, but be on the lookout for more updates. AC/DC's most recent album was 2008's "Black Ice.

Great to see I haven’t developed in any way…
Rumour has it that actors all want to be rock stars, the same way that musicians seek the “next level” of their career by turning their hand to acting. Whether that’s strictly true or not is a matter for debate, but what is certain is that the two trends have often combined to make both cinematic music videos (just ask 30 Seconds to Mars), but also to offer the magical sight of some of the world’s greatest acting talents (I’m not saying that’s true of everyone down below) getting their glam on in those videos.

This morning, we presented to you images from the GQ photo-spread of Lea Michelle and Dianna Agron, which involved the very dated and trite school-girl uniform cliché, even though they don't wear school uniforms on "Glee" (talk about misrepresentation!).
The recurring complaints about those images were 1) that Lea Michelle is trying too hard; 2) that the photographer, Terry Richardson, has a pedophilia obsession; 3) the sexy school girl thing is done; and 4) why isn't Cory Montieth dressed suggestively? You know, for the ladies to pant over, and the men to complain about?
I wanted to do you all a solid, and turn the cliché around by featuring the most suggestive school boy uniform images I could find from popular culture. Unfortunately, the school boy uniform doesn't really lend itself to suggestiveness. Boys in uniforms in the spread eagle pose just doesn't have the same Joie de vivre. In this respect, women got fucked on the turnabout.
