Several of the shows had already been announced, but the video message made the Cocked, Locked And Ready To Rock trek official.

30TH ANNIVERSARY OF AC/DC SINGER BON SCOTT’S DEATH

Posted in: Uncategorized

bonscott_narrowweb__300x4560It was 30 years ago on today, February 19th that AC/DC’s Bon Scott was found dead in his car at the age of 33.   The Scottish-born singer was enjoying the success of the band’s sixth album, Highway To Hell, and had gone out drinking the night of the 18th in London with several friends.   One of those friends drove Scott, who passed out, home and left him to sleep it off in his car.   Scott’s lifeless body was found the next morning in the car, dead from alcohol poisoning. He was cremated in Australia a week and a half later, clad in jeans and a white T-shirt.

Scott’s hard-living persona and genuine skills as a performer and storyteller were a cornerstone of AC/DC’s early albums and classic tracks such as “Whole Lotta Rosie,” “Let There Be Rock,” “It’s A Long Way To The Top (If You Want To Rock ‘N’ Roll)” and “Highway To Hell.”

Angus Young said that he and Scott got along so well because they both refused to take life too seriously, and they both had rebellious streaks: “Well, Bon was just… he was just one of those people. We have a tendency to laugh a lot about… things that go on. You know, Bon was the same. And I think if you’re playing rock and roll, there’s just a streak of rebellion in you, you know?”

Jake and Josh Harris left a statement on their Dad’s web site http://captainphilharris.com/

Unfortunately, during “Won’t Get Fooled Again,” Daltrey was caught missing his vocal mark twice when his “visual” vocals didn’t match the audio Daltrey’s missed lip-syncs can be caught at 2:46 — “Get on my knees and pray” and at 3:03 — “My family aside.

Impossible shot(s)

Posted in: Uncategorized

From my old stomping grounds in Johnson County Kansas, Olathe Northwest High School was doing an attempt to spoof College Humor’s Prank Wars Half Court Million Dollar Shot, the school told science teacher and girls basketball coach Joel Branstrom if he made a half-court shot while blindfolded, he would win NCAA tickets. However, the school never had NCAA tickets to give him, as they never expected him to make the shot. Not only did he make it, he sunk it!

Then WDAF reporter Rob Low shows up to do a report on the amazing shot for the evening news, but check out what happens, again…
