    Photos of original lineup + Steve Young purportedly.
    They appear to have been taken during a video shoot and show drummer Phil Rudd playing with guitarist Stevie Young for the first time – with the fan site claiming that the footage was shot in the Netherlands earlier this year.

    The new look at the band comes after it was claimed that they have already recorded their next album.

    In July, Twisted Sister’s Dee Snider, a close friend of the band, claimed that their next album is already finished but its release has been delayed due to the coronavirus pandemic.

    “This is gonna be a miracle of technology,” Snider told ABC.

    It's on.
    As Malcolm said they would, sticking to the same musical formula.
    I like it.

    Yeah...they only became one of the biggest metal bands of all time post Scott.

    I prefer Bon Scott also.
    However the Young brothers cranked out tons of great songs after that. And for some songs Brian Johnson totally fits.

    Chunko is right in that they went on to become huge with Johnson. Would have with Bon Scott too imo. But the guitar work stands either way.

    They're one of my favorite bands... saw them live in Buenos Aires and at the Madison Square Garden...

    But even legends like them have an expiration date, tbh...

    Well no . But I can't imagine Bon Scott pulling of the songs that Johnson made classics.

    Bon Scott being replaced by Brian Johnson isn't David Lee Roth being replaced by Sammy Hagar.


    Sad they want to go on tour when the other members of the band are decrepit as .

    Or, Dennis DeYoung being replaced by an absolutely incompetent imposter who can't carry a tune much less replace one of the great ones.

    I saw Styx at the AT&T Center in February 2011, and they were downright terrible outside of 2 Tommy Shaw songs (which weren't Styx's best to begin with). My mom & I requested (and were denied) refunds.

    I have no doubt in my mind you asked for the refund after you saw the full show and you and your mom went halfskies on a concert shirt that you tried haggling the price down on.

    As an aside, speaking of old bands that put on great shows playing all their hits, Foreigner puts on great sets. Seen them a few times, once at the county fair and at a casino. Were great shows.

    Only official concert shirt I own is "All Hope is Gone" from Slipknot in 2008. But, of course that's heavy metal, so I went with friends, not family.

    As for the Styx concert; it was just awful. At some point late in the show on-stage they realized that the imposter singer was so incompetent so they actually set it up karaoke style for THE CROWD to sing "Domo Arigato, Mr. Roboto"... it was a goddamn joke. And they totally butchered some of their best songs like "Lady", "Don't Let It End", "Grand Illusion", and of course... "Come Sail Away" (which the imposter guy quit halfway through because he knew the crowd was doing a better job than him)... just pathetic.

    The only bright spots of the night were Tommy Shaw's "Too Much Time On My Hands" (their best of Shaw's songs) and "Renegade", which is overrated and I'm not a personal fan of. But overall a disasterpiece and a waste of money, even though we had nosebleeds.

    The songs were definitely better during the later Bon Scott years. Back in Black was basically a Bon Scott album with a different vocalist, though Johnson was at his peak for that album. I do give them props in the '80s for not becoming another Mutt Lange puppet band like Def Leppard and Foreigner. They probably could have sold a ton more albums in the '80s if they had kept him as the producer, but they went back to their raw roots against all trends at the time. Flick of the Switch is underrated.

    I like both, tbh... Johnson even sounds better on some Scott songs, like Shot down in flames. Then on songs like TNT, Scott is irreplaceable, IMO...

    The only screwup I thought was drafting fat Axl Rose, tbh... but at that point, it didn't matter.

    You are comparing an album version to a live one.

    Only because I can't find the Brian Johnson album version of Highway to , imo the single most legendary AC/DC song and a top 10 classic rock song of all time in general.

    Has Linkin Park attempted to replace Chester yet?!? That one hit me hard in the midst of a bad year in 2017. I respect the out of Mike Shinoda, but I don't think Mike can really carry a tune, definitely not like Chester, and in any case Linkin Park sans Chester is just a whiter Fort Minor.

    Yeah Johnson was great on the ACDC Live album with the Scott tunes. Tbh I heard a lot of those songs for the first time on that album and it took a while for the originals to grow on me. Would have liked to hear him live around 1981.

    It's tough when the vocalist is relatively iconic... it's like Layne Staley with Alice in Chains, they never sounded the same. Same thing is going to happen to Soundgarden/Audioslave, Stone Temple Pilots, etc.
