Malcolm

[AndyR]

It's still only unconfirmed rumours - been going for a day or two - but it's looking increasingly like there's truth in it.

Malcolm Young very poorly and can no longer play guitar

Get well Malcolm - lots of people love you and owe you lots for the fun and joy you've given us.

[Flash Harry]

Oh dear.

That's a real shame.

Wilko Johnson is still fighting it and is playing Glasto this year. It will be good to see him.

Yeah, saw this too.

      Malcolm Young may have suffered a stroke and can no longer play guitar. However, just today, the band have apparently dispelled the rumours, so who knows...

     I've mentioned in these hallowed pages on more than one occasion that Malcolm Young was the reason I wanted to pick up a guitar, and the single biggest influence on my own rhythm style.

     Whatever the situation, I hope Mr Young gets well...

The official AC/DC site confirms that Malcolm is "taking a break from the band due to ill health".

Hmm i wonder what it is but they are saying they`ll be making a new album soon and they can`t
make one without him so it`s gotta be something minor.
