My grandad used to drink with him regularly . He used to work in the federation brewery in Gateshead and Brian Johnson would pop into the local where my grandad would drink
I’m a guitarist and the drum teacher of where I’m taking lessons was invited to a party at Brian’s house (this was right before he had to leave AC/DC) and met him and he said he was extremely nice and gracious. Would give anything to meet this man!
People always, always miss the point... He is the epitome of the Cinderella story. This guy joined AC/DC at 32, hardly the time when you expect to start a successfull music career, and he was flat broke . Just shows it ain't over until it's over.
People are programmed to a ridiculous way of thinking that if you haven't succeeded in 'the arts' by 29 your chance is done I know Bros aren't exactly the hight of musical credibility, but it's as simple as this, the two guys who wrote their songs were in their 40's and made a mint off the back of it
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.
Indeed! I actually came to watch this video to hear an example of a Geordie accent, after looking up what "Geordie" meant in the Mark Knopfler tune Sailing to Philadelphia.
Brian did good, stayed sane and never lost His roots along the way with the band. Top man and I would love to have a pint with Him. A true British Legend.
It is the mark of a great man that refuses to let fame & fortune go to his head and change him. To quote Abraham Lincoln “Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power”. Hats off to you Brian.
Did anyone notice something about Brian in this interview? The guy is worth millions upon millions of dollars, he's got one of the most bad ass resumes in history, he fronts (or fronted) the biggest and best hard rock band of all time, yet he just comes across as the most down to earth, average Joe kinda guy... even when he talks about buying a bloody Rolls Royce, he just sounds so normal! I don't think this guy could show off and be full of himself even if he wanted to, humble by nature, Brian is such a great guy!! We love ya Beano!!
NO SORRY....i didnt notice that brian is the most down to earth star.....with no egos or lack of personality......ill have to watch it again...in case im deaf or blind.......lol
One of the best frontmen of all time. Just an all over class act. He seems like such a respectful person and so easy to approach, oh how I would love to shake his hand.
Brian is a genuine, sincere and authentic person! I really love his voice too and he is not only my favourite rock singer but also a very funny story teller!
The first AC/DC song i ever heard was 'What do you do for money honey' when i was 6 years old... Even at that age i knew there was something diffrent about it.. i thought,"This music makes me feel awesome." And still does to this day!! ~Long live AC/DC~
What a great interview. It felt as if you're actually there quietly listening Brian and his stories. Props to Leona for making an effort of letting Brian telling his stories while still being genuinely interested.
What a brilliant personality Brian has. I grew up in Newcastle, England and my mum went to school with him. I’ve lived in the USA for past 15 years, so it was fantastic to hear his Geordie dialect. I really enjoyed the interview.
Brian is a great singer. He is also a very humble person. Love listening to him tell stories. He has a way about him that he just i a interesting person.
Brian is such a sweet guy very down to earth. Brilliant he hasn't lost any of his Geordie accent. He was the only one who could take over the vocals for AC/DC after Bon.
@@lisascarrott6142 He lives in Lido Key, Sarasota, Fl. Everybody there knows and if you drive around you could actually see him talking to ppl like a normal, casual dude.
Geordie accent is soo lovely. This guy is an absolute legend and so humble. He totally deserves all the praise he gets. What an amazing story. Im defo getting his book. thnx absolute and acdc.
I.m from Bulgaria, I learn English almost 50 years from my 3 age but I barely understand what Brian says with his Geordie dialect. However, I love him for everything what he did for Geordie and AC/DC. On May 9th last year AC/DC performed fantastic in front of 60 thousand exalted fans in Sofia and this will be maybe the greatest concert in my country ever== Listen AC/DC, don't forget Geordie !
After Bon i didn't like him cause of the Pain of his loss. But now i find his one of the most natural superstars ever, means i like this guy very much now. As well as a musican.
Brian is a true legend in rocknroll. 'Just gets on with life and acts like he's just any another bloke on the street. Brilliant combination. Leona Graham did a superb interview too. So many of them love the sound of their own voice and keep butting in, not Leona though - well done. Long live AC/DC - what a band.
what a great guy! down to earth, so respectful for joining ACDC. Gave an indication of how demanding and how much work is done by the group, great upload!
I am only 17 and my dad took me to the Black Ice concert in Charlotte. Best concert I have ever been to!!! I hope they aren't finished making music, it would be truly depressing not to hear anymore of this unique vibe that AC/DC puts off
Brian is good but acdc was a rocking before he came with bon scott .angus and malcome are great guitarist .but their acdc.they still rock now and foeever none better
He seems like one of the nicest people in rock history. He is so humble and his story here is fascinating. For me, the two best AC/DC albums were Highway To Hell & Back In Black...the best of two great vocalists!
Slash, the Godfather I hate people constantly comparing him to Bon. He is incomparable to anyone. He was in that band for so long time and who knows where they would be without him.
I met him at work ages ago. I'm from Sunderland and the lads thought we were gonna have a fight. Nicest bloke you could ever meet, he's never forgotten where he has come from.
Brian Johnson isn't from Newcastle. He's from a village called Dunston which is in Gateshead, the same place as Paul 'Gazza' Gascoigne. Brian's mother lived at the end of my street where I grew up. A lovely Italian woman, very quiet and humble :)
This is a guy that I would love to have a beer with.
Me too that would be amazing experience
10 beers !
My grandad used to drink with him regularly . He used to work in the federation brewery in Gateshead and Brian Johnson would pop into the local where my grandad would drink
@@stu3306 Can you please tell me where he is from

I am honored to call Brian Johnson a friend. He is amazing. He is a lyricist, post, musician, awesome fucking mate.
She is a really good interviewer - Asks sensible questions then listens and has a good voice.
People always, always miss the point... He is the epitome of the Cinderella story. This guy joined AC/DC at 32, hardly the time when you expect to start a successfull music career, and he was flat broke . Just shows it ain't over until it's over.
Filmaker25 - We all need to drum that into our heads! Me included.
He was living with his parents!!
32 ain't that old mate.

I could listen to Brian talk all day. He seems like such a sweet guy. I love that expression “Me Darlin’ “. 😊🖤
Brian's accent is fucking awesome. I love the Geordie accent.
Indeed! I actually came to watch this video to hear an example of a Geordie accent, after looking up what "Geordie" meant in the Mark Knopfler tune Sailing to Philadelphia.
Michael Murphy I like it but I don’t understand a word he’s saying
Non pretentious real British accent indeed. The rest are British wonkers
soren schjodt you’re a piece of shit
I feel right the only accents I can distinguish are the British and the american, a bit Australian so I can focus on ideas rather than the accent.
Brian did good, stayed sane and never lost His roots along the way with the band. Top man and I would love to have a pint with Him. A true British Legend.
By the way they're Australian :P
Yep, a true Geordie.
Rob Trust he come from a very poor background didn't he? Northern England in them days I read were very poor and hard going.
Rob Trust He has Italian origins fools
Brian isn't British, he's Australian.
i never get tired of this bloke. He is absolutely one of the biggest rock n roll star in the history
Man, this guy is humble and down-to-earth. Great vocalist for a great band.
He seems so humble and down to earth
Top guy. No crap just a nice fella who happens to be in the best band on the planet too
I love acdc. best band on the planet? 2 of the Beatles are still living

Damn Brian is the best! I have never met somebody that does not like him, hes just awesome love him!
He seems like such an affable, down-to-earth guy :D
AMGwtfBBQsauce He sure seems, I fully agree! Cheers, Jerry
Brian Johnston is the most humble man in the world.
I would love to talk to him.
Every interview I've ever watched with this guy, no matter his age, he has always been down to Earth.
It is the mark of a great man that refuses to let fame & fortune go to his head and change him. To quote Abraham Lincoln “Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power”. Hats off to you Brian.

We love ya Beano!!
that's what makes AC/DC so successful.. it's stuff for the regular people who don't know how to properly show off
Thats because hes a lad that didnt grew up with fame.
I couldn't have put it better myself.
NO SORRY....i didnt notice that brian is the most down to earth star.....with no egos or lack of personality......ill have to watch it again...in case im deaf or blind.......lol
Maybe that's why they knew instinctively at first audition, he's [like the rest of us] just a regular down to Earth guy - we've got a *match* .
Love this guy. So down to earth. One of the boys.
Brian sounds so chill when he talks
Cool guy. That's why ACDC is so good they all where cool.
what a really nice bloke makes me proud to be English and proud that hes the front man of my favourite band. LOVE YOU BRIAN . smashing.
what a guy... what. a. guy.
What an absolute golden soul and a legendary once-in-a-lifetime voice.
One of the best frontmen of all time. Just an all over class act. He seems like such a respectful person and so easy to approach, oh how I would love to shake his hand.
what a total delight this man is......
i love AC/DC !!!
Me too
A living legend... But very modest at that. Respect!

Brian johnson has got a great Voice.
it feels weird to not hear him screaming
never knew he actually had a thick voice
You should probably listen to the begginings of Boogie Man, Rocking All the Way and Decibel, if you feel like it, of course. Those have low vocals
Yeah lol.
Ikr XD
Listen to his stuff from his Geordie times. Songs like House Of The Rising Sun, Treat Her Like A Lady.
I love how friendly and humble Brian Johnson is..!
What a great interview. It felt as if you're actually there quietly listening Brian and his stories. Props to Leona for making an effort of letting Brian telling his stories while still being genuinely interested.
he can still talk, amazing!
A true motorhead rocker!! Love it!!
A great guy to have a pint with and talk cars and driving!!
my dad spent an hour with him back stage at download the other year as my dad does the fire safety. he said he was the nicest bloke he has ever met.

Such a humble man is he..ego less and that's missing in today's society especially amongst the rich and famous!!❤️🤘😁
I'm from Brazil, I love AC/DC. Please, do one more concert in Brazil. We will stay very happy.
lovely fella
What a great guy. So funny, but humble. A natural Geordie. Loved his video series on being on the road.
He is so nice. Keep on rockin' Mr. Johnson!
After Bon i didn't like him cause of the Pain of his loss. But now i find his one of the most natural superstars ever, means i like this guy very much now. As well as a musican.
After 40 years, it's nice to know the new guy is doing alright.
@@Autisticwanderer Even if Bon had lived longer and eventually left the band not by death, he did approve of Brian taking over and the 2 were friends.
You've got to love a man who pronounces "no" as "NAOOOO!!"
That’s the Geordie accent for ya
I love his take on the US accent during the Rolls Royce Phantom.
" cool car man" hahaha spot on.
Brian is a true legend in rocknroll. 'Just gets on with life and acts like he's just any another bloke on the street. Brilliant combination.
Leona Graham did a superb interview too. So many of them love the sound of their own voice and keep butting in, not Leona though - well done.
Long live AC/DC - what a band.
if only everyone could be so genuine and down to earth as Brian Johnson, what a fabulous guy.
God bless you, Brian!
tragedy and they come out with the greatest album of all time.
There will never be another Back In Black...ever.
Seems like a fun guy to hang out with
what a great guy! down to earth, so respectful for joining ACDC. Gave an indication of how demanding and how much work is done by the group, great upload!
He’s so inspiring. Bless you,Brian. 💙💗
I am only 17 and my dad took me to the Black Ice concert in Charlotte. Best concert I have ever been to!!! I hope they aren't finished making music, it would be truly depressing not to hear anymore of this unique vibe that AC/DC puts off
"Well, I did, me darlin."
For some reason i had to play that over and over again.
He did a voice of a British soldier in call of duty finest hour.
Without Brian Johnson, AC/DC is just a tribute band with a great guitarist.
Brian is good but acdc was a rocking before he came with bon scott .angus and malcome are great guitarist .but their acdc.they still rock now and foeever none better
@@deborahmarkum465 were not bad but weren't a big success till this guy came along
Yes thats true love his voice.,brian johnson took them all the way.wish i could have seen them in concert.
Brian sounds like Spongebob
Two great guitarists. That wrote the songs.
Love Brian. A class act.
Brian Johnson is a class act!!
Been my favorite band since I was 5, still my favorite band. I actually started wearing those golf caps as a kid because of Brian. Legend
I love AC/DC... I love this great man, his voice, and his jokes ;)
living leyend fantastic man .
down to earth...Class act..Way to go Brian.
it'd be great going to the pub with Brian Johnson, thats if there are any traditional pubs still around, so many have closed.
No idea who Leona Graham is, but Brian Johnson is not only a Rock legend but a force of nature.
AC/DC is my favorite Rock 'N' Roll band ever
He seems like one of the nicest people in rock history. He is so humble and his story here is fascinating. For me, the two best AC/DC albums were Highway To Hell & Back In Black...the best of two great vocalists!
LEGEND
What a fabulous interview with the nicest guy in hard rock history.
Great Man and Rock and Roll singer.long live AC/DC,... ; )
This is not a man.This is a god....The singer of the best band of rocknroll of the world...Don't forget...Never forget it....
i was lucky enough to meet him and get a picture with him down in Sebring Florida after he was racing his cars two weeks ago
Bon Scott was a god. Brian is just some sort of Jesus :D
