Kingscliff pub, or that venue near Burleigh Heads, 1983, ( its been 30 years give me a break) my brother saw them, Angry with Daisy Dukes and his “nut sack” hanging out! oh yeah, this ain’t your Disco night, Disco is dead!
I totally agree. They should have been bigger and when AC/DC did that tour without Brian Johnson they should have had Anderson fill in Johnson that would have been such an outstanding match up.
Im in Australia, going to see Rose Tattoo in April with a band called The Poor. If you like Rose Tattoo google The Poor Who Cares Album, another great Australian band that toured with ACDC.
Love you Gary … you’re one of the Aussie greats musicians . Angry was a great nick name but I never thought your be like that on real life xo from Sydney Australia
Gary was known as the angry ant in his gang days, later shortened to angry. Met him a few times. around 1980 Lovely guy and the rest of the band were just teddy bears. But what a band, and that first album is iconic.
Axl Rose you know what in 1981 when he went to see rose tattoo with Aerosmith he said Aerosmith they were has-beens by then. However, rose tattoo he said blew me away he said those guys were doing something that nobody else is really doing . He said I fell in love with him, and I used them as an inspiration for my name. Axl Rose
Pacific Coliseum, 1977. Saw Aerosmith get blown off the stage by the Back-Up Band. ACDC led by Bon Scott's vocals. To be fair, the Toxic Twins were nose-deep in...well, you know.
After a concert of the band in 2008, I asked Steve King why they never played as a guest of AC/DC... His response was "I'm just a passing musician, management takes care of that" 🤨
We had a local D.J. down here in (The Hometown/ Capitol of Classic Rock) San Antonio Texas by the name of Joe Anthony "The Godfather" (of Classic Rock) that brought US kids bands to the forefront and sometimes at HIS own expen$e,literally. He paid for Rush to come play a concert here and they dropped by his restaurant, AC/DC and Rose Tattoo were amongst the endless plethora of bands he exposed us to and I will always,.. ALWAYS be forever grateful to boast about him until the day they put me in the dirt. I had an idea of having AC/DC,Rose Tattoo and Slade go on tour and call it AUSS--fest. Wouldn't that have made that British @#$%& Sharon's panties bunch up?
Many times seen the tatts during the 80's, my best memory was a place called The Venue, St Kilda. There was also the Tarmac and Ritchies. So many great performances from the Tatts that are etched into my memories. An awesome pure rock band that stands there own. What the hell has happened to live music today?
Adelaide SA I watched the Tatts and AC/DC. Angry so credible. Eddie Van Halen seriously considered Bon and Jimmy Barnes. Timing never considered with both bands at any time... AC/DC and the Tatts were different and correct Angry. The Angels on the other hand , were inspirational ✌️🤘🏴☠️🇦🇺
Angry said he thought it came from a managers view in the beginning to keep the bands apart, he never said he didn’t play with them. My title isnt correct Im changing it … thanks for the feedback.
Rose Tattoo Rock and Roll Outlaw was one of the best songs from the 70’s hands down. Would have been good to see them perform with AC/DC though. Shame it never happened
yep i know that now. kinda glad thought i'd missed something :) met Angry a few times over 40 years ago. top guy. Thaks for the interview@@Laughingmonkeymusic
Not only should “scared for life” be in the top ten best albums ever produced, (well fark me, that cover didn’t help, and i explained it to some Yank ebay seller ; “ who else is going to buy this 40 year okd LP?”= sucker.. I saw you down Northern Suburbs in Sydney, in say 1990s and I was with me Mom. You did a few morning shows back than, (No not Ita, thats that other guy).. She’s starting bkah bkah blahing up to you and im like “ Ma, leave the man alone, he’s just chilling with his Mrs”.. , But you gave ne a big smile and than talked to my Ma for a few… True Blue Aussie Rock Star Legend 101! oh yeah.. Thanks mate for doing my Ma that way and instilling in me, just because you get a little fame, don’t forget where it starts!
Axl's voice is failing GnR songs at times but he absolutely nailed the AC/DC songs. He sang live debuts to many Bon Scott era songs and sang many early Brian Johnson songs in a way Brian can't sing anymore. Sammy "that's what Dreams are made of" Hagar doesn't have that level of cred that Axl has. Plus, he will always be remembered as the guy who replaced DLR in VH, so it's better he not upset another fanbase. That being said, I am glad Brian is back at AC/DC. And AC/DC would not want a band like Rose Tattoo as its support act because Rose Tattoo are the only Aussie band that could go toe to toe (musically speaking) with AC/DC. Support acts are usually an accident of touring commitments and who knows who.
Bogans to all non Aussies are suburban, working class beer/ bourbon drinking, street car racing yahoos, with tattoos and mullet hair cuts with a touch of redneck, who love bands like AC-DC , Cold Chisel, Angels ( Angel City) and Midnight Oil. ( Not to forget flannel shirts and black jeans!)
Loved Pete wells got tats for him the Pete wells band Annandale Sydney and we all know slash was inspired by Pete him and my brother chappo big funerals in Annandale in fifty years. House of pain Annandale does that surprise u angry
The ideal person to replace Bon Scott, voice-wise, in 1980 was Stevie Wright but his well-known drug & personal problems made him too much of a risk for Malcolm & Angus.
Okay, I grew up in the 70s and 80s. I was very much into hard rock and heavy metal like AC⚡DC, Motorhead, etc. Why in muthafukking 'ell am I just learning about the band Rose Tattoo today in 2024? 🤷 I mean, their songs are exactly the kind of music I liked then. So I'm to just accept the fact I missed out on some badass music in my youth? Nope! Can't! Someone better be building machine and sending me back so I can live it. 😡
@costelogus: Search UA-cam for 'Sarah McLeod & Angry Anderson - Highway To Hell'. Both Sarah and Angry did this duett for an episode of RocKwiz. Angry absolutely nailed it. After Bon's passing I told everybody that he should be replaced by Angry and that duett proved me right. Angrys vocals blew me away when I heard that duett for the first time.
Acdc a préféré axel rose au lieu de prendre angry Anderson pour remplacer Brian Johnson sur scène.... 🤔 😔 à l'époque acdc et rose tattoo était en concurrence en Australie 🇦🇺 les frères Young Georges, Malcom, Angus était pas du tout près à partager la "gloire" quand Brian Johnson à eu son souci d'audition ils ont préférés prendre axl rose au lieu de prendre angry Anderson....
These guys (Rose Tattoo) changed Rock and Roll in the 70's hand's down. Problem was you couldn't control them, which is the way R&R should be.
Just like GG Allen 🙌

I saw them in Dec 1982 when they opened for Aerosmith in San Antonio TX. They rocked.

Replace Slade with the Angels and your talking cause Slade aren't Australian.

If I'm not mistaken he also had another Canadian band called Moxy on high rotation. They're bigger in Texas than they are in Canada

Butcher and Fast Eddy is a masterpiece.

Mama,live GTK showed the way.Billy Thorpe was the man they followed.And we know Lobby helped Bill.King Billy is the greatest rock singer ever.
I saw Rose Tattoo and AC/DC in Parramatta park when i was 4, changed my life forever. so yes they did play with AC/DC.
Angry said he thought it came from a managers view in the beginning to keep the bands apart, he never said he didn’t play with them. My title isnt correct Im changing it … thanks for the feedback.
Why not tour together ? Because it would have broken the space time continuum and ended time with a bigger bang !!!
No shit man!😂😂😂
Angus should have thought of Bobby "Blitz" Ellsworth of Overkill! He would have absolutely nailed it, man.
blitz has the right sneer for the job
Overkill have done Dirty Deeds several times in concert, it's not an unheard of idea.. I like it
Rose Tattoo real rock n roll.band
Saw them on a cruise two years ago.
Hager or Axl would have been the end of the road for me.
Rose Tattoo Rock and Roll Outlaw was one of the best songs from the 70’s hands down.
Would have been good to see them perform with AC/DC though.
Shame it never happened
Couldve been a good show
@@Laughingmonkeymusic you think? 😄understatement of the century😉
Interesting. Heard once that the tatts supported AC/DC on opening night at Bombay Rock down in Melbourne
Gary said never happened
yep i know that now. kinda glad thought i'd missed something :) met Angry a few times over 40 years ago. top guy. Thaks for the interview@@Laughingmonkeymusic
@GodsOnlyGospel thanks for taking the time … think Angry will be back in a few months not sure we had talked about it
look forward to it@@Laughingmonkeymusic
I would have much rather have had Angry finish that tour as the singer than Axl.

Michael Vincent is the singer that sound closer than any other singer to Bon Scott
Axl's voice is failing GnR songs at times but he absolutely nailed the AC/DC songs. He sang live debuts to many Bon Scott era songs and sang many early Brian Johnson songs in a way Brian can't sing anymore.
Sammy "that's what Dreams are made of" Hagar doesn't have that level of cred that Axl has. Plus, he will always be remembered as the guy who replaced DLR in VH, so it's better he not upset another fanbase.

Marc storace from krokus has the same voice as Bon
Which is why it wouldn't have worked. They didn't want a clone to replace Bon.
The fans did not get along one had bikers and skin heads and the other had bogans
plus aussies love a good brawl

uh what? Their music is totally similar. Same thing with the angels. Total rock n roll pub rock.
@@nickcarroll5034 not the fan base back then different tribes
Angel City ? @@nickcarroll5034
Hard to believe there could be anyone shorter than ACDC, but here he is 😆
Yeah my thoughts exactly 😅
Well, there's that actor from the Game of Thrones series, Peter Dinklage. They may be small, but the talent is enormous.
Prince?
Should play the monsters of rock cruise.
They have played a cruise or two I think …
The best singer for ACDC is the one in Solo Dallas sound exactly like Bon
Loved Pete wells got tats for him the Pete wells band Annandale Sydney and we all know slash was inspired by Pete him and my brother chappo big funerals in Annandale in fifty years. House of pain Annandale does that surprise u angry
Oui Oui Oui , rock n roll has a lot of different meanings . Trust truth n real . Anything else is ?
Im singer of Street Fighter..ask vanda young....Rose Tattoo is Acdc...Most Germany Musicians think so

Lol … well I have many episodes with Angry on so dig in and catchup! Thanks for watching and talking time to comment.😎
My friends and I discovered Rose Tattoo, either 79 or 80. We found the album in the import section of our local record store and we all loved it.
Angry Anderson would have been a better vocalists for Bon sorry it never happened
Would love to hear him some of Bons songs
Would have been cool

Donc c'est. Axl dans AC/DC était un cauchemar sonore pour ainsi dire
Malcolm and George were dead (or near dead) by this time.
I thought Axel could do a Bon Job but his voice was fuckkked so he was just a poor Brian.
I heard that Australian rock singer Jimmy Barnes (Cold Chisel) was asked to join..... of all bands VAN HALEN....is this true?!
I heard it was thought about but alot of singers were …I cant confirm.
There's a Swedish Rose Tattoo tribute band whose lead singer is named Mandy Magnussen.
that sounds really ghey
Should have been UDO
They did! They opened for AC-DC at a concert I was at in my city in 1986.
Angry says they never did ….
Mark Slaughter cpuld probably sing AC DC....
Brians voice is shot now. Angry should step up. imho
He could do it but thats not him he is pure RT
With a smile
Music is a monkey business created by Vanda and young.....to be rich..
Never like Axle
Angus asked Marc storage of krokus Marc can sound just like bon Scott DC world cd is Marc doing ac/DC songs
