I am not saying I never hope of ever playing with AC/DC again but, then again, is it even AC/DC any more? No Bon's beautiful voice. No Malcolm. No Brian.

Phil Rudd

To me as a fan, as a die-hard AC/DC fan, Brian Johnson is the reason I discovered AC/DC.

Jim Breuer

I'd still stand in line all day to get into an AC/DC show, because that was the one show when I was younger that kind of changed my life. Because it was a little wrong. I think I was 14 or 15, first concert without the parents, you know, and they were all worried because we were going to an AC/DC show, and it was an amphitheater.

Eric Church

AC/DC is a tough gig for everyone in the band.

Phil Rudd

I don't know if it's true that most people don't know this, but the reason that I play music is because of my favourite band of all time - AC/DC.

Jeremy Fisher

We always try to get new songs. That's what AC/DC has always been about. You can listen to what we do, and you can go, 'Well, it's AC/DC, but it's a new song.' So that's what we've always tried to achieve. So we've always got that style.

Angus Young

AC/DC is a prime example of taking that blues rock thing and just living in that world. They only really move the furniture around a little on each album, but it still works.

Joe Perry

My role in AC/DC is to keep time and to drive the band as much as I can. That's a drummer's role anyway.

Chris Slade

The best AC/DC cover I've heard? There was an all-girl cover band in America, the Hell's Belles.

Angus Young

I'm 33...before AC/DC I've played in a lot of bands in Australia. You're never too old to rock and roll.

Bon Scott

I liked a lot of the things other people liked - Jimi Hendrix, The Beatles, Van Halen, AC/DC - but if I compared it to my dad's music, there just seemed to be elements missing.

Dweezil Zappa

No one's ever done what AC/DC did out of anywhere, really. Conquered the world, mate, that was the idea from the start. A little Napoleon in all of us.

Phil Rudd

I personally am not a shorts-wearing guy. That goes for any form of shorts, beside sports shorts, that I have to wear.

James Wolk

In the real world, people just get on with their lives. And that's where AC/DC come in.

Angus Young

I think what AC/DC does best is play live. That's when everything comes together. Even after you make a studio album, when you go out and play live, that's when you learn what being in a band is all about.

Angus Young

We used to listen to a lot of AC/DC before games to get fired up. 'TNT,' 'Thunderstruck,' all that stuff. It really gets you pumped.
