LOL! I can guess a few of the answers. OTOH, in some cases, I don't even
understand the question. ;-)

I'll have to try this on some of my Aussie friends in other newsgroups.

This is the only one I know. Ronald Belford "Bon" Scott. Died from
being punk and disorderly in London in 1980. The band was never the
same again.

Oh, I don't know, I reckon Brian Johnson is pretty good at what he does. He
certainly isn't particularly good at being Bon Scott (only Bon Scott could
be Bon Scott) and can't sing Bon's songs the way Bon did, but I think he was
a suitable replacement, not for Bon (can never replace him) but rather, as
the lead singer for AC/DC, and the AC/DC songs that were written with Brian
Johnson's style of singing in mind work just as well, IMHO.

I was far too young to see Bon Scott with AC/DC live, but the shows I've
seen with Brian as lead singer were awesome. But lets face it, AC/DC is all
about the Young brothers, plus Charismatic But Hard Front Man who Can Belt
Out A Rock Tune. Jimmy Barnes would have done a good a job; anyone of that
ilk would have worked.

Can't even remember who the drummers have been.....

Naturally, YMMV.

This was a lot of fun to read, especially with Yowie's answers.

Question: Do Aussies *really* drink that much beer????

Some of them probably do, but the Aussies I've met (about 20 or so) don't,
or at least they didn't when I was with them - and I have stayed with
several of them, sometimes for days at a time. Also, drivers in Oz are no
worse than those in Southern California, and you'd think they would be if
they were all drunk. ;-)

Wine is catching up with beer. They make some pretty terrific wines
there.
