- Ben Jones speaks to Angus Young and Brian Johnson from AC/DC about their new live DVD Live at River Plate. They also discuss what they were doing while on a break between albums, how they carry out the recording process of their albums, having fun together, how interviews are a pain in the arse, the follow-up to Black Ice... and much, much more.
I saw an interview where Angus said, "when we came to town they use to say lock up your daughters. Now we're so old they say lock up your grannies!"
😂😂😂
Who is sleeping with these ugly motherfuckers?
Still get more pussy than you
@@sychophantt In a world where Joey Ramone got laid, everything is possible!
Macolm said that to 😂
Angus is definitely one of the most iconic rock stars
Molag Bal agreed🤘🏼
I agree
As a guy who wasn't a huge fan of AC/DC, but never thought their music sucked I gotta say Angus is no doubt an iconic guitar player. I guess radio killed their music for me.
@Jacob Molyneux 74 jailbreak, flick of the switch, if you want blood you got it, highway to hell.
@@Strings-jg2to fire up powerage and thank me later.
I admire Brian Johnson so much for stepping into a tragic situation and fitting in right away, and I admire the band for making him feel welcome. AC/DC are not just great rockers, but they are great people, too. Love these guys.
Hopefully Lars wasn't AC/DC's drummer!
Very humble men. Love that about these guys
Same
Same
they need to make a movie about ac dc
Charlie Lopshire I agree
they did. decades ago. way before mtv. LET THERE BE ROCK. watch it and enjoy.
@@angusrocks939 I think Charlie meant a docu-drama like Bohemian Rhapsody.
Watch the 2004 movie thunderstruck
Charlie Lopshire ikr
I could listen to Angus and Brian talk all day.
Angus has always been quiet and introspective.. Hes actually really artsy fartsy type besides his guitar he does these awesome pencil sketchings.. Everyone who meets him says same thing.. hes nice, approachable and (basically) zero ego!. He is such an awesome dude and a total gent at same time.
Cool!
AC/DC....LOVED THEM SINCE 1974. BON. BRIAN ANGUS. MAL. PHILIP CLIFF. MARK EVANS. CHRIS SLADE. SIMON WRIGHT. LOVE YOU

cant imagine how much these guys are worth but they are so down to earth,all your biebers and minajis could learn a lot
the biebers and minajis fuck off with that crap
they'll never be here watching to read your comment so they'll never learn
Angus worth 140 million and he is generous to a lot of charity’s
@@josephmagalhaes5445 *charities
Get a life douchebag
How can't you love these guys? With all their massive success over four decades they still come across as down-to-earth normal blokes who love what they're doing. Long Live AC/DC!
Genuinely cool as fuck these two certainly influenced Steve Jones that's for sure
AC/DC Van Halen Metallica! Thats it..
Angus is the best ever
I.just love Angus ❤️ he is so good I loved it when he bounces all over that stage
I’ve been a casual fan and enjoyed their music for 40 years but the last few weeks I’ve been deep diving their catalog and watching interviews and getting to know their story ….unbelievable how awesome these guys are. I can’t get tired of watching the interviews even..not pretentious in the least.
It doesn't matter if it's Brian or Bon. It is a moot argument. What it is the ONLY important thing to any AC/DC fan is that the band recovered from the death of their lead singer and didn't decide to split and end it all. That with both singers the band has continued to rock the planet for decades now, not starting to mass produce senseless ballads but to stay true to their own sound and style. That they are still, at just under and over 60 yrs of age able to rock stadiums and be one of the greatest live bands ever.
Anything else is trivial.
If it wasn't for Brian Johnson, AC/DC would've ended and there wouldn't be any more awesome albums like Back In Black, For Those About To Rock, The Razor's Edge, Flick Of The Switch, Black Ice
Preach it
Zane Williams SISTA
Stop comparing the two Jesus... they're both very gifted singers and have the band a good voice. Bon had to depart earlier and we all love him and his voice. Brian was a good replacement and has acknowledged bon as an integral part of this bands history. Let Bon Rest In Peace Jesus..
MultiSanchez1995 Both of them are the best!
after selling over 200 million albums ...i think you would struggle to find 2 more down to earth guys then Brian and Angus....in it for the music !!
Stop this war beetween Brian and Bon..These two singers are just...a fuckin good rock nroll singers..and ACDC IS JUST..The only real band of rock n roll...The best of the world...That's all !
This. And the band knew of Brian because Bon liked him.
Ok..it stopped. I hope you are ok
That must be an incredible brotherhood to be in a band like that for so long, the memories they must have...Truly amazing LUCKY lives.
These guys really 💘 their fans
Real AC/DC fans love Brians' and Bons' voice. Ain't no difference when ur rock n rollin'!
Same here. IDGAF who's singing. ACDC is ACDC
Yeah
Well YESSS there is a big difference between the two of their voices. C'mon man. Go back & listen.
Greatest band of all time. And cool people.
These two are very genuine people, proper well mannered guys who never forgot their roots, hard to find in the vacuous fake world of rock n roll , nice guys
I love Angus ❤️
BEST BAND IN THE UNIVERSE FOREVER
They're starting to look old.. But you know what? That's why they are so great! A bunch of elderly guys rockin' hard like they are 20 years old!
That's the magic of Rock ´n' Roll!
Starting to look old? How the hell old are you? So do you think they should go get plasticized so they don't look "old" to YOU? jfc. Do you ever think before you type/speak? Reread? Try it before you send your insults.
How could you not like AC/DC they are with out a doubt the best ever IMO.........
"FAR AS I'M CONCERNED, AC/DC IS
THE NUMBER ONE ROCK AND ROLL
BAND IN THE WORLD!" 5-30-2016
Rock On Rockers, WW
funny how some people quote themselves like they're going to appear in rolling stone magazine or something. tool
wwvette awesome I agree their the b est keep on rocking
Yes the best off all time high energy raw power.
Hell yeah 🤘
brian johnson honestly seems so genuine and down to earth
Angus is a completely different person when he's on stage, I've said it before, he's the Freddie Mercury of guitarists imo. He knows how to work the crowd. Legend.
Saw ac/dc, cheap trick and kiss in the same night in Seattle in 1978. They put angus on Bon's shoulders and walked him thru the audience while he played guitar.
Mystery Painter omg!
They love and appreciate their fans and vice versa. Its perfect balance.
That's the equation.
Math never lies.
"It's a Long Way, to the Top, ..."
"We do from the people that matter to us" That says it all... AC/DC will always be the quintessential rock band to me!
I love how humble they are. It's rare, and it's a blessing.
Love Brian's accent
True
Brian’s a north east fella , friendly folk in general.
Used to watch him in the club circuits
The thing I love about Brian is that he makes me feel like I've been friends with him for years, even though I haven't met him. I feel like I'm having a conversation with him when I watch stuff like this even though I've never been able to say anything to him. He always puts a smile on my face and makes me happy, ever since I first got into AC/DC before I could walk. thank you Brian. You've inspired me as a 17 year old to pick up my guitar, microphone, drums and bass and give it my best shot to make more rock n roll in the world.
Do it for the love of rock and roll
I love AC/DC and Angus Young and Brian Johnson!!!
Got to love Angus and Brian! So down to earth.
I hope they come back very soon
Just Amazing how Brian overcame his hearing problem. He never gave up! And it paid off!!
Angus’ accent is so unique; a great blend of Scottish and Australian!
Have already commented on other videos of AC/DC and I would like share my experience with them. In 1982 they played the old Glasgow Apollo theatre on the tour dubbed the "Cannon and Bell tour" due to the fact that it was just after the album release of 'For those about to Rock'. Well I was fortunate to see the three sell out shows due to knowing someone who worked at the theatre and after the show on the first night I met them at their hotel just across from where I live in the city centre. On the last day (Sunday),myself and four others who were waiting outside the hotel were invited inside to meet with them and they had just sat down to eat and Brian Johnson invited the five of us to join them for dinner. So my claim to fame is having dinner with AC/DC.They are the most down to earth guys who are funny and generous of their time. Even Phil Rudd was cool regardless of what you read about him. What you see in these interviews with them that is what you get, solid, good natured and generous guys who have time for their fans.
Cool story m8,I'm Scottish myself from hamilton,nice one
Samsta871, thanks for your reply. I hope to be working on their gig at Hampden next year.
My claim to fame goes to back to Feb 11th, 12th, 13th & 14th 1988 with their Blow up your Video World Tour Sydney Australia. I won a competition organised by their record Company. I spent 4 days with them. The first song of the concerts was Who made Who. The Band had 10 `Angus clones` for each show & I was lucky enough to be one of them. So I spent those 4 afternoons backstage at the Sydney Entertainment Centre with them before each show. Had dinner with them each night. Angus made me a chocolate milkshake & the odd cup of tea. Drank Coca cola with Simon. Played cards with Cliff & Malcolm. Cliff even wrote a `love letter` to my girlfriend at the time for me :) Sang Hells Bells with Brian as he warmed up. Best 4 days / nights of my life. Wish I could do it all again
Super cool!! I had a similar experience with Lynyrd Skynyrd about 17 years ago. Like you I will never forget the experience.
***** That's so cool!
0:30 "Kids 5 to 75 Coming to rock and roll" How Awesome is that!!!!!!
I was born in 95 but grew up on all the greats via my parents. I hope that never dies and kids will always cherish the greats
Happy Birthday Brian! Love you from Sweden🎁💖
nice to see angus has never lost his Aussie accent :)
Mox_au a Scot with an Aussie accent
Craig Brainimpact While being born in Scotland, he considers himself to be Australian and Sydney his true home.... he lived there from the age of 7 right up until his mid 20s. He married a Dutch girl in 1980, and has resided in Holland, since the age of 25, until present. So if we're getting pedantic, he's actually more Dutch than anything else lol.
+Mox_au In Australia there is a lot of pressure to be Australian esp if you`re famous , as there as so few Australians of world renown. Back in the 80s I lived there and they amongst others came in for a lot of bad press because they didnt have Aussie citizenship. They just kept the Brit passport. So on the quiet I think they are Scots first. Think one of the other celeb who got dragged in was Jimmy Barnes, another Scot.
+housecarl6 Angus has stated himself that he considers himself Australian. He left Scotland at age 7, and has never returned. Also Jimmy Barnes's family immigrated when he was five. He's had 54 years in Australia, so I'd be very surprised if he didn't consider himself an Aussie lol. But yeah, the whole 'pressure to be Aussie' thing is a joke.
Mox_au I have heard Angus say (albeit reluctantly )when asked if he was an Aussie ,",no one else would have us " hardly a ringing endorsement.
As for Jimmy barnes whats the time spent in Oz got to do with anything ? Rolf Harris as lived in the UK for 60 years he still considers himself an Aussie.
I love how Angus says "and from then on, all I see is my feet" Angus is so funny!!!
Angus is so tame and then give him a stage and a guitar huge difference. Crazy..
It's amazing to see how humble they are. And unlike lots of other bands, they're not greedy, money, stats or fame isnt why they keep playing it seems, just the fans and the the fact they still love to do it!
I'm 51 and my daughter 13. We both love them. It's amazing how they've survived time. I
Their accent is so lovely:-)))))))) It is pure enjoyment for my ears::)
I have loved AC/DC since back in black I heard it and was obsessed! I love them !
such lovely little old rock and roll grandads
Cudos, it is the fans that recognise, respect & love the band. Who care of the rest. They have nothing to prove. They are one of the best & beloved acts ever.
Glad to see Brian back thank God
Word. 100% agreed. Brian says that right away and without even thinking about it and you can tell it comes from the heart.
angus has still got the same sense of humor just like back then
hi are we still friends
No stop bothering me and her or me and nick are going to put u on BLAST
I love u too baby
and you only love her for her body
are me and you still friends and sisters love amberlynne
Such cool guys!
This is why AC/DC are amazing! Badass rockers on stage and genuine down to earth men off stage ! They are truly the best band ever in my book! I have a great size AC/DC collection,cds, t shirts, necklaces, a few keychains , guitar pics a Epiphone SG with an Angus truss rod cover. And a few movies. Both live cd sets, and more! Gonna be adding more soon as I find stuff I like! I seen online an AC/DC back in black edition clock! I have two lighters butane and one regular zippo. A few car decals with AC/DC on them. Angus cut out! He’s my hero! Like they all are! I put the cut out behind my bed, I got a pillow case and tons more!!!!! I even have The Rolling Stones tote bag that AC/DC are on! I really cannot wait for them to start touring again. I was hoping they would announce the tour dates yesterday. But I only see two of them up so far. And they are both in England. But fuck my collection is so big I can’t remember all of it right off. Let me just say it would not fit in one tote it would fit into probably a room lol.
So cool to see musicians at this stage in their lives boasting laughter and smiles like these two.
My favorite Rock 'N' Roll band ever
Two of the greatest guys in rock
If you sat a 10 year old kid down and showed them this interview and told them that these two guys are a couple of the greatest rockers in history, they'd never believe you. Such genuine blokes
''Making dough and having a ball doing it'' - Brian Jonson - 4.45 min - that's rock & roll
Brian's biog is brilliant one of the best books iv ever read
Just when I thought I couldn’t love them more! So down to earth! Legends, that are down to earth! ❤️❤️👏👏👏
..totally agree! Here four years later and I've just booked tickets for power up tour at Wembley 👌⚡⚡
You know you're a good band when you can record as you would play live. No session musicians, no adding tracks, no auto tuning, no drum machines etc.
This band melts my heart! The most talented and the most humbling guys past and present you could ever wish to meet! You are in my ❤ forever!☺
Every time they laugh together my heart just melts, seriously. This is what real friendship looks like, no ego, no bullshit. Makes me think of Lethal Weapon, same thing.
Love Angus ❤
Hey I love you Guys!! I'm 47 Years old and AC/DC has been a staple in my life from pretty much the beginning. Through the Low times (Boy there have been some low times to a time of wanting to take my own life low) to bring me back to life. To the great times to when your music took me even higher!!! Thanks for a life time of Rock and Roll!!!!!!
Angus is a Legend !!
These guys are so real, so genuine and so open. When they sit and talk, and share with us you can see that they are still in touch with their fans and themselves. The awesome responsibility of being the greatest band on Earth has not turned them into egomaniacs. They remain just folks with a talent beyond belief. Thank God for AC/DC!
These guys are legendary. Angus is one the most ionic guitar players to ever live
My favorite Band. AC/DC 😈🤘
These guys are awesome.
People like AC DC top music still liked around the world allowed to have the music still available half century true musicians and magic talent for everyone in the world there DNA test the people who have worked with music brilliance for GoodLife healthy future generations
Super Legend and super people
FUCKING LEGENDS!!! Love you mates ! You are the true spirit of ROCK'nROLL!!!
Angus and Brian, the dynamic duo! And I love them together or apart! They are such great people!
They are so humble
Great questions! I will never forget being twelve and hearing Back In Black when it first came out, listening with my brothers on a scratchy little radio. Priceless memories!
Just got back home an hour ago from the Rock or Bust concert in FINLAND.. gotta say, THANKS!! Thanks Angus and all the guys, you were awesome!!!
Great interview with ang and Brian
These guys are great. I could listen to them tell stories for hours.
Great interview. After all these years...they still get along & are still friends. They just love playing the music. & We still love listening. Isn't that what it is all about? I think alot of other bands are too busy fighting, because either they have overly inflated egos or it has become just about the money. Sadly.
Plus they are just about the only band I can think of that the lead guitarist is really the front man and I think Brian has always known that and couldn't be happier with it just that way.
Im not a fan of rock music but you got to love angus an brian's humility and love of music,
Angus: You know, you know...
These guys always have been and always will be cool. Some of the most non-egotistical and honest people in music. Been rockin out to them since I can remember, and I think now I will put on Fly on the wall, good stuff there. Rock on guys.
These guys pumped a lot of heavy albums during the 70's and 80's. I'm amazed they are still playing. I can't believe Angus isn't completely crippled by his head banging back then. Luckily, I go to see them on "Back in Black" tour. Angus was intense. He was much different the next time I saw them on the "Blow up Your Video" tour. I had the tape, but didn't like it much until I saw the show. Angus may have slowed with age, but he never missed a beat. I fell in love with that tape after the show.
These two are so down to earth I would love to sit and talk to both of them
i like it when bands aren't pressured or rushed to get in the studio. when they are relaxed and on a fun path. the music always comes out better and an album that is worth getting.
I love it when Brian says "me and Angus are not exactly natural interviewees, but we'll do" he can't stop talking !!!! LOL Great stuff :-)
I love these guys, love the music, love the shows they put on, but most of all I love that they are genuine blokes that are approachable, love what they do, love their fans and are still doing it all these years down the line! fingers crossed for a new album and new tour!
the living legends
they look normal right now GO AC/DC ! WOOOO!
What's up with all the smoking comments?
These dudes were a gift to rock music, if they want to smoke themselves to death let them fucking do it, fuck.
i respect you HIGHLY
He'll die one day anyway, deal with it.
Surely the meaning of rock n roll is not to live as long as possible.
Who gives a fuck just let them die if they want to, what are you, their mother?
FFS
***** dying young? Well they are not that young anymore......
those who are a member of the 27 Club were young
These Guys are old bastards (and I mean that in a good way) and I love them. Of corse I don't want them to die but I have seen musicians do other Things that are way worse than smoking a cigarette......
Smoke themselfes to death? Smoking is not a drug, just unhealthy like a beer or a hamburger.
Some of the all time greatest musicians
I think AC/DC is a world treasure .all these guys are laid back and easy going.They have made some of the best rock n roll not to mention doing things for charity
These guys are great
best band ever!!!
These guys are old but gold ;)
I like these people's attitude!
Best rock band ever .. whatever and however they did it it just worked they rocked
i think one of the most naturally tight lead singer/guitarist bands in history!Fun an laughs..no "feed the world or save the whales bullshit"...jus the fukin an roll!
VIVA AC/DC!
I miss Bon terribly, but if he had to be replaced, Brian was the right man for the job.
Did you know bon?
