    Sitting in a bar in Sarasota Fl in 96 and guess who walks in and sits down right next to me , Brian . Let’s just say we drank a few “Pints” that nite. What a charming man . Ended up seeing him in that bar 2 more times . I’ve been THUNDERSTRUCK 🤘🏻

      I bet not many can say that? My dad before he died sadly? Can say he knew people like Lemmy and Bon and later Brian ? He talked to me more about it than his other kids? They had no musical interest ? I was little like 2nd grade or 1st either one either or and I remember asking mom what that album was called cause I couldn’t read very well yet? I said the first song? Interests me “hells bells “ she taught me how to read that way was reading everything from the Bible to street signs to resturant menus to album covers ? Anyways I asked her why we had a can signed by a Lemmy? And since she’s Scottish ? To me she didn’t sound much different than any other South Carolinian ? Cause that’s where I am from? But anyway my dad told me some stories that was his can that he personally gave him. That’s why it’s encased like a baseball . Dad and mom knew a few rockers sadly I know none. They knew Lemmy before he died before I was born? In 98? It was really cool to hear some of the stories. I wish I had seen them in concert. Motörhead and AC/DC more times. And even Black Sabbath. Some of my other favorite bands. Dad and mom knew both Bon and Brian and loved them both. Bon briefly for a reason we all know…

    Watched the interview and it must of been good because I sat through about 3min sections of interview followed by 6/7 mins of the same fucking annoying Budweiser interview for over 45 mins but when he’s asked “what do you want to be remembered for?” And Brian answers “A gentleman” what an absolute fucking legend he is. I adore Brian Johnson, there’s no better role model out there in music for how to treat people.
