Pumpuynarak Posted October 2, 2020 Author Posted October 2, 2020 Now what are the chances that they'll do a Bangkok venue ? I was prepared to go to Perth when they last did a tour as they did'nt have a Bangkok venue but left it late and could'nt get tickets in the end. I would love a "last chance" to see my heroes. 1
Yessongs Posted October 2, 2020 Posted October 2, 2020 We'll see Cliff, ya know they tried coming to Bangkok ( Impact Arena) years ago wifey told me. The promoter at the time did not want to pay then the going rate for their show. He was run out of town I hear......ya know with the Thai media and all........well.......this is Thailand and who knows what the real truth is/was. If I am back in Bangkok and they come to Impact....I am there. If I am here and they play locally, I will be there too. The only thing I am NOT going to do in either place, is go to a stadium show, indoor arena only. Chok Dee Mak Mak.... 1 1

Had one gig cancelled 3 times now, first time was because the singer needed heart surgery, and twice due to Covid. 2 others cancelled and one rearranged for March. Was meant to be at HRH weekend at Yarmouth next month. Really missing the live music scene. 2 2

It's all getting to me now , usually graft and have a goal wether it's meeting mates , going on holiday or even buying some clobber to go out. We're all in a massive rut the world's going mad . 1 2
Aqualung Posted October 2, 2020 Posted October 2, 2020 Hang on a mo folks! Where's Angus? Im all for a re-union of one of the best rock bands the world has ever seen but without Angus I'm not so sure. Seen them 3 times in the past, all with Brian as front man but I'm not so sure it would be the same without Angus. Time will tell I suppose as I'm sure Angus was trying to put together his own version of AC-DC.
Aqualung Posted October 2, 2020 Posted October 2, 2020 Having said that.... Whatever version of ac/dc showed up at impact arena.. If I had a chance of a ticket.. I would be there.

Lantern Posted October 5, 2020 Posted October 5, 2020 Each to their own, but it's not my type of music.

Just out of interest Pump, who do you prefer as lead singer, Bon or Brian? Im just thinking that after the release of "Back in Black" ACDC never looked back and quickly became one of the best and biggest live rock bands in the world.

You got it in one, i loved Bon Scott with his very distinctive voice and he was as mad as a box of frogs but very entertaining on stage but for some reason BJ took ACDC to another level, i think it was the riffs/material Malcolm Young was writing, top drawer stuff imo. BJ is a very accomplished professional front man whether you like his voice or not and has a real knack of getting the crowd behind him. Thats my take on the situation. 1
Pumpuynarak Posted October 8, 2020 Author Posted October 8, 2020 New song with BJ sounding as good if not better, not bad ehh at 73 yo 1

Pumpuynarak Posted November 11, 2021 Author Posted November 11, 2021 Now whats the chances of them doing a tour next year with Covid under some sort of control. I'm fast running out of time to see my heroes for the last time. The chances of then coming to Bangers is pretty remote i would think but i'm prepared to travel to OZ or back to the UK. Here's praying they will do a tour..... 1
