AC/DC to split: report
Caroline Zielinski

AC/DC may be announcing their retirement as soon as Tuesday, according to media reports. The famous rock band, which formed in 1973, is one of the most popular and highest-grossing bands of all time.

Entertainment commentator Peter Ford told radio station 3AW on Tuesday morning that after last year's talk of a tour, nothing has been announced since.

"The suggestion is being put to me that tour will never happen and we will never see AC/DC perform again or record again," he said.

Hells Bells ! If I wasn't living in Sin City and Hard As A Rock, I'd be Thunderstruck ! For Those About To Rock like having their Big Balls held every night, like most of the Riff Raff here that try to Sink The Pink but end up with D.T.

That Problem Child will Walk All Over You, but you want to Get It Hot ! The looks says Come And Get It but she is a Ball Breaker that knows Money Talks. If You Want Blood (You've Got It) but if you're going to Chase The Ace, you may end up with The Jack.

I Can't Stand Still so don't try to Hold Me Back because It's A Long Way To The Top of The Razor's Edge. My Stiff Upper Lip will be Damned if she doesn't Give It Up to my Rising Power.

While the Jailbreaker with the Meanstreak is on a Shakedown and has Gone Shootin', you've been Kicked In The Teeth again. It's time for another Whiskey On The Rocks with the Livewire sitting next to a Whole Lot Of Rosie. Hell Ain't A Bad Place To Be so you ask Can I Sit Next To You Girl ?

You're a Night Prowler and know there are Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap and that Some Sin For Nothing so you say What Do You Do For Money Honey ? She's Giving The Dog A Bone while you Shake Your Leg and tell her to Have A Drink On Me. You whisper in her ear I'm a Love Hungry Man, stop Beating Around The Bush and Let Me Put My Love Into You before I have a Meltdown.

A Fly On The Wall watches a Dog Eat Dog as she asks Are You Ready because she wants to Ride On your Big Gun and Shake Your Foundation. With a Flick Of The Switch you are All Screwed Up and having a Nervous Breakdown. She's in the House Of Jazz and knows the Satellite Blues just Can't Stop Rock 'n Roll !

You explore Who Made Who but the Girl's Got Rhythm. She has a Touch Too Much and has you yelling Hail Caesar as you Inject The Venom. You explode like TNT as she purrs baby, You Shook Me All Night Long and asks What Next To The Moon ?

You shout Baby Please Don't Go as she gets up. You tell her she'll be Safe In New York City but you are Shot Down In Flames because she is already on a Highway To Hell.

She looks at you with a gentle smile, pauses at the door to look back at you and then screams Rock And Roll Ain't Noise Pollution as she vanishes into the night.

(Made up from the titles of the 72 AC/DC songs that I have on my computer.)

AC/DC’s 40th anniversary tour under doubt due to health concerns

RETIREMENT rumours have again surrounded Australia’s most successful rock band AC/DC.

Rumours surfaced this morning that the band’s 40th anniversary tour may be axed due to the health of one member.

The greatest band ever to come out of Australia. Will be missed 40 years is a long time at the top.

Personally think the noteworthy tunes by both INXS and Men at Work are over and above anything those guys have managed to churn out, which, let's face it, is generally just noise. But each to their own, I spose. ;)

Whichever way you slice it, like them or lump them, 40yrs in the business, a recognizable style for 3 or more generations, they have something that other bands can only dream of. I am a mediocre fan, mostly their singles and anthem songs, but I still will miss the fact that they are not around. There just is not the talent around to replace these rock legends. You think Eminen is going to be squiggling angry little rhymes about his mum 40yr from now? If he is then he's just sad. A tragic start for AC/DC, a great career made, heap praise and crank up the volume. For those about to Retire, we salute you!

It's interesting how most of Australia's top hard rock acts of that era tended to be thoroughly Glaswegian (ok, Brian Johnson was a Geordie).

Homegrown Aussie acts tended to have a sunnier and lighter outlook on life.

AC/DC made it globally, but Cold Chisel never did; I wonder how it would have worked if Jimmy Barnes had taken over from Bon Scott.....

Sounds more Scottish to me.

Great band apart from the annoying little guy that wore the school uniform.

They annoying little guy in the school uniform is the main musical influence on their music, and the school uniform bit is intended as a piss take
