Hutton Gibson, Mel Gibson’s octogenarian dad is a notorious denier who claims the World Trade Centre was destroyed by remote control and not by al-Qaida; that the Second Vatican Council was a masonic plot backed by the Jews and that all Popes going back to John XXIII have been illegitimate “anti-popes”

Angus and Malcolm Young the two guitarists in AC/DC were born and raised in Glasgow. They emigrated to Austrailia at around the age of 10. Brian Johnson the “geordie” singer replaced Bon Scott after his death in the early 80’s.

After a quick search, I have to say you are right Steve. I am sure a while back I read something about them starting in Scotland before they went to Auz but it looks like the band was formed in Sydney.
Anyway thats it – as soon as I get back, all tapes/CDs/LPs into the bin 😡

I am absolutely certain I read somewhere that they were formed in Scotland (near Falkirk??) originally, I know Bon Scott was Aussie. I will have a look. It could also be that my alcohol ravaged brain is getting confused but before I issue an apology I am going to check this out.

The Aussies like to call Mel their own as they do with Russell Crowe and the Bee Gees
Alright he’s an old fashioned American git in that case, (I’ve met too many) 😀
