Never thought my hands were small until I started playing guitar. Angus and Malcolm are an inspiration.

First time I saw ac/dc 1980 back in black tour I was amazed at 16 years old how Angus played for 1 hour nonstop banging his head running across the stage playing wow look at this guy he's unbelievable he's was a animal live😅😊

will sign things for every fan, enjoys taking time with them. he has lots of class.

This guy will always be in my top ten guitar players. Those mid 70s to early 80s albums (dirty deeds, high voltage, let there be rock, highway to hell, back in black, for those about to rock, and even fly on the wall) are ALL amazing! No effects, no tricks, just guitar, amp cranked to 10, and soul.

​@Christopher Ressler Nah. He was born in 1955. 18 years old when he formed AC/DC. Pushing 20 when their first record came out. The band decided to lie about his age. Hence the schoolboy outfit.

One of the BEST ever, hands down !!!! One of a few on the planet that when you hear a few notes, *you know exactly who it is.*

I think it’s amazing how Angus is able to constantly headbang and play as concisely as he does.

I remember thinking, 'Gee, I got small hands here. I might never be able to play this insane progression or a weird chord like this.' But with time, it just comes. Practice is all it takes.

His guitar playing and solos have so much soul. He has it!!

He was kind when I met him awkwardly as a sixteen year old during the Fly On The Wall tour, and I hear he was great at my friend Vicki’s prom back in the day too. I wish him all the best, and condolences on his loss of Malcolm. Thanks for sharing, Tim! Best, Daniel 🤙🏼

Dude's always had beast solos, def gifted.

legend. genius. Thank you ACDC for all the joy you brought to my life. RIP Malcolm n BonScott. ❤️

He’s so modest and humble. He’s only been rocking the world and inspiring young guitarists since like 1974. AC⚡️DC.

Two brothers they got me through the 70s and 80s and 90s and beyond. Nothing small about you

That's why all Australia love you and your brother and the rests . Love yur bro. !!

I'm glad he mentioned his brother, because of his brother that is when I 1st truly noticed how a whole band works together!!! My 1st sighting of AC/DC was Day on the Green Oakland Collesium 1979 when I was a Jr in high school.

The fact is you And your brother, changed my life. Bought your guitar, and some jagoff stole it. But my band always would recreate y'all's music ❤❤❤❤

I absolutely love Angus Young! One of the few people that I wish that could live forever!!! I love you mate and everything You and AC/DC ever did…..!!!!!!

Angus Young is way to underrated, in my opinion he never gets the recognition he deserves for his musical genius , his rhythms are timeless & his solos are downright amazing. The music he & ACDC created 40+ yrs ago STILL KICKS A$$ & to this day still makes ppl BANG THEIR HEADS 🤘🏼 Angus Young is Definitely one THE best Rock n Roll guitar players of all time.

This cracked me up, Malcolm was a Guitar god to me growing up, my Al time favorite player. RIP ...... rock on Angus !

Angus and Malcom had a gift of writing some of the most powerful rock songs ever, using only about 4-5 chords, and yet their riffs are great. Immediately when the song starts you can immediately tell it’s AC-DC. Honestly I could get pumped up listening to their music all night and it always motivated me in my work outs. Though I loved to play their music, i rarely did because it was too hard to sound like Brian or Bonn. You really have to be able to sing like either of them to do justice to their music. I’m truly sad for Angus to have lost Malcom as I’m also very close to my own brother and it’d be difficult to replace someone so close in life but I hope we continue to hear more of the band’s “Raunch - Rock Powerful style. Such a great band for so long. Nobody like ‘em. God Bless you all Angus. Please keep Rockin’ guys. We need you on a big Rockin’ Stage. Loud and Crankin’. You’re Never too old too Rock

Seen these guys in the 80s and 94 this lil schoolboy can rock love his style bought my first real guitar and it was a Gibson sg because of Angus learned AC/DC first 42 years later I still have it 😊

I grew up listening to these guys! My dad and uncles had it playing as loud as it could go! Now I got kids and do the same thing and they love it🤣🤘🏼🤣

This little fella may be small but he’s a Rock ‘n Roll thoroughbred; all heart and energy for days.

Angus being so small is one of the reasons that watching him on the stage is so much fun. It's amazing to watch him bolt around and jerk his body as he plays. He's always been the energy of the band. No doubts about that.

He actually did have a pretty good stretch when he demonstrated it. Amazing how great he sounds considering the effort he has to put in, that's how you can tell he really "means' what he plays. Funny how he switched guitars in the middle, obvious edit, would like to see the whole interview.

It’s getting around the fretboard 😂 I love you Angus I love how you can laugh at yourself about your size and be careless. Careless self amusement is the best medicine

None the less Angus , you n brother Malcolm smashed it !! , for years ! ✌️🤘🇭🇲 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

The greatest sounding guitar I've ever heard. He makes simple cords sound amazing. My favorite is how he can create meaty riffs but also so Rich sounding.

I am 55. I've been headbanging to their music since I was a kid. This is the first time I have heard him speak. What a cool dude!

Malcolm was so underrated. He was the driving force behind AC/DC's iconic sound. I'm sure that Angus misses him very much. I know that I miss the hell out of my two bros. Keep on rockin' y'all. Let the music elevate your mood.

Just complete honesty. No ego at all.

His trying has certainly made many a people happy over the years. Thank you, Angus.

Angus will always be the greatest performers of all time! I’ve been blessed to have seen him live, twice, and he never disappoints! Thank you Angus’s!

Been listening to them since my brother gave me Back in Black as a cassette back in 1984-ish and it's the first time I have heard his voice! 😁
