AC/DC was finally back on the road in 2024 after eight years without touring and their first "Power Up" European tour came to an end last August 17 in Dublin at the Croke Park. Until now the band doesn't have any new tour dates scheduled. The band's current line-up has Brian Johnson on vocals, Angus Young on guitar, Stevie Young on guitar, Chris Cheney on bass and Matt Laug on drums. See the setlist and videos of their final European show https://youtu.be/Chi-VC_x8e0 https://youtu.be/7Qus0CROSS8 https://youtu.be/dOJiONZrTRQ https://youtu.be/7KnK7Y4KKZ4 "If You Want Blood (You've Got It)" "Back in Black" "Demon Fire" "Shot Down in Flames" "Thunderstruck" "Have a Drink on Me" "Hells Bells" "Shot in the Dark" "Stiff Upper Lip" "Highway to Hell" "Shoot to Thrill" "Sin City" "Rock 'n' Roll Train" "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" "High Voltage" "Riff Raff" "You Shook Me All Night Long" "Whole Lotta Rosie" "Let There Be Rock" "T.N.T." "For Those About to Rock (We Salute You)" It’s the first time that AC/DC had an American drummer touring with the band since Matt Laug was born in Florence, South Carolina back in 1968, only five years before AC/DC was formed. Unlike Matt Laug, Chris Chaney didn’t perform with AC/DC at the Power Trip Festival in 2023. The classic bassist Cliff Williams came out of retirement to play with the group that night. But as the band said in an official statement, he is the one who will “carry the torch” for Williams from now on. So he will be the youngest member of AC/DC at the moment. He was born in 1970, only three years before the band was formed.The post See the setlist and videos of the final AC/DC european tour show appeared first on Rock And Roll Garage.

Although Ace Frehley was not part of the final Kiss tour and his ex-bandmates did not always have good things to say about him over the past years, he said in an interview with  Guitar Tales Podcast (Transcribed by Ultimate Guitar), that he is still very close to Gene Simmons. According to the guitarist, he even sent an email to Gene last year when the bassist collapsed during a show in Manaus, Brazil. He said that Gene replied to him in 10 minutes. Ace Frehley says he is still very close to Gene Simmons "We can still talk to each other civilly… If we have to," admits Frehley (transcribed by Ultimate Guitar). "When Gene got sick in South America and he collapsed on stage, he was dehydrated. I got very concerned, because I'm very close with Gene to this day. I sent him an email, and I said, 'Gene, are you okay? I just read that you collapsed.'" "And within 10 minutes, he got back to me from South America, and he goes, 'Ace, we were playing in the jungle. It was 106 degrees. And very high humidity. I was completely dehydrated.' And his costume weighs about 30 plus pounds. So he said pretty much he just needed a lot of Gatorade. He had to hydrate himself. And after that, he was okay, thank God." He continued: "We created something that will endure way after we're all dead. I try to let the negative stuff go and focus on the positive memories. We had a lot of fun. We used to really be very closely knit. And we'd have weekly band meetings and get the stuff off our chest that was bothering us." "But like I said, once we became rich, we all became millionaires. Everybody started going their own way. Everybody had their own limo. Everybody had their own bodyguard. So, you know, nothing can last forever," Ace Frehley said. Ace Frehley was part of Kiss from 1973 to 1982 and from 1996 to 2002. In the late 80s he released two studio albums with his band Frehley’s Comet and as a solo act he already released 8 studio albums, the most recent one being “10,000 volts” (2024). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWIW6Ti0PbE&pp=ygUEa2lzcw%3D%3DThe post Ace Frehley says he is still very close to Gene Simmons appeared first on Rock And Roll Garage.

Sammy Hagar recently started the "Best of All Worlds" tour, which is focused on the material Van Halen wrote when he was part of the band. On the road with him are Michael Anthony (Bass) and Jason Bonham (Drums), who both had been part of his band for years already. The newly added member is Joe Satriani, the guitarist who worked with Hagar in the supergroup Chickenfoot a few years ago. In an interview with "The Bogus Otis Show", Hagar confirmed that besides touring, the band will also make new music with Joe Satriani on guitar. He said he doesn't know when but that it will definitely happen. Sammy Hagar says he will make new music with Joe Satriani "Yes. I guarantee it. I mean, it's, like, I don't know when and why, because records don't sell. I've made a couple of my best records of my life, my last two solo records, and I'm lucky to sell 50 or 60,000 records. You go and make a record nowadays just to lose a couple hundred thousand bucks. It's all good. But I need a tax write-off, so it really helps. 'I made too many this year. Let's go make a record,'" Joe Satriani said.

Born in Duluth, Minnesota, United States back in 1941, Bob Dylan started his musical career in 1961 and changed the course of music. During a career spanning more than 60 years the musician inspired countless artists and is one of the most covered musicians in history. He started as a Folk artist but then "went electric", adopting the electric guitar on his music, incorporating Rock and Roll into his sound. In a conversation with Interview magazine back in 1986, Dylan listed songs that he considered to be very influential and three of them were Rock tracks. Rock and Roll Garage selected what Dylan said about the artists that were responsible for those records and tells a little bit more about them. The 3 Rock songs that Bob Dylan considers to be influential Little Richard “Lucille" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ydBkmgJi-g&pp=ygUWbGl0dGxlIHJpY2hhcmQgbHVjaWxsZQ%3D%3D Written by Little Richard and Albert Collins, "Lucille" was first released by Richard as a single in 1957, becoming a huge hit that influenced countless musicians over the decades. The single reached the first position of the Billboard R&B chart. The track was also included on Richard's self-titled second album released one year later in 1958 that also had other hits like "Good Golly, Miss Molly" and "The Girl Can't Help It". In an interview with The New York Times back in 2020, Dylan talked about Richard and said he was triumphant in his work.  “Both of those guys (Dylan and John Prine) were triumphant in their work. They don’t need anybody doing tributes. Everybody knows what they did and who they were. And they deserve all the respect and acclaim that they received.” “No doubt about it. But Little Richard I grew up with. And he was there before me. Lit a match under me. Tuned me into things I never would have known on my own. So I think of him differently. John came after me. So it’s not the same thing. I acknowledge them differently,” Bob Dylan said. Elvis Presley “Mystery Train" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njw2oB8oRTs&pp=ygUfRWx2aXMgUHJlc2xleSDigJxNeXN0ZXJ5IFRyYWluIg%3D%3D First released by Little Junior's Blue Flames in 1953, "Mystery Train" was covered by Elvis Presley two years later in 1955 and released as the b-side of "I Forgot To Remember To Forget". Still is considered one of the most famous songs of the King. Still in the 60s, Bob Dylan said that he loved when Elvis recorded one of his songs. "Elvis Presley. I liked Elvis Presley. Elvis Presley recorded a song of mine. That’s the one recording I treasure the most’. . . it was called “Tomorrow Is A Long Time.” I wrote it but never recorded it," Bob Dylan told Rolling Stone magazine. Buddy Holly “Not Fade Away" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NN2L84dvoag&pp=ygUdQnVkZHkgSG9sbHkg4oCcTm90IEZhZGUgQXdheSI%3D "Not Fade Away" was released as a single by Buddy Holly & The Crickets back in 1957, two years before the musician's tragic death in an airplane crash at the age of 22. The song was included on the album "The 'Chirping' Crickets' (1957). That record also had the famous tracks: "Oh, Boy!", "Maybe Baby", "It's Too Late" and "That'll Be The Day". Dylan curiously had the chance to watch Buddy Holly playing live. He recalled that when he was honored with a Nobel Prize in Literature back in 2016. “If I was to go back to the dawning of it all, I guess I’d have to start with Buddy Holly. Buddy died when I was about 18 and he was 22. From the moment I first heard him, I felt akin. I felt related like he was an older brother. I even thought I resembled him.” “Buddy played the music that I loved, the music I grew up on—country western, rock and roll, and rhythm and blues. Three separate strands of music that he intertwined and infused into one genre. One brand. And Buddy wrote songs, songs that had beautiful melodies and imaginative verses. And he sang great, sang in more than a few voices. He was the archetype, everything I wasn’t and wanted to be,” Bob Dylan said.The post The 3 Rock songs that Bob Dylan considers to be influential appeared first on Rock And Roll Garage.
