It looks like it's true mate.... This sucks.

I hope that he gets better, I don't want an amazing person like this to leave this world.
You think you can vist him Alex? Would be pretty tough to try right?

That's sad news indeed.

 

[eS.G.]

Very sad.

 

[JohnnyGoo]

Very sad indeed.

 

[LeadFinger]

That's a terrible affliction. Must be fairly advanced for him to need to be in a home.

Sadly with dementia you don't get any better.......only 61 years old....makes you realize that life is indeed short.

 

[shreddy bender]

That makes me sad. One of the most rock solid rhythm players in rock and roll.

true. One hell of a legend, whom I never had the chance to see live unfortunately.

Sad, sad news. I spent my whole teenage years worshipping these guys' music, I think of them as some kind of uncles.

Too bad... If they come over to my country within their 2015 tour, I'll most certainly honor them by being there.

[iblive]

Yes. Very sad indeed. Only about a year older than I am. Sure make one think.

I would love to, Adam, but Sydney is on the other side of the country.
Also, security at the facility he is now living in is very tight, as one of our former Prime Ministers is also a resident there.

My father in law recently had a stoke and one of the after effects is dementia. Totally changed his personality from being one of the kindest, gentelist people that I have ever known to being cynical, paranoid and just an all around different person. It's almost as if he lost his soul during the stroke and another soul moved in.

 

[DoodoaXD]

Well it's true.... But it's real. Very real, and he had officially moved on from the band.

May I raise a glass to Malcolm Young, the best riff maker and band leader.

Like someone on here said,the sound of that Gretch cranked through Marshal Stacks is permently etched into my brain.so true. Get a good pair of ear phones,plug them into a good ipad ,ur phone or what ever and put on Sin City and sit back and enjoy. When you really sit back and listlen to that song you realize just how loud and blistering it is. I love it and am goin to miss that guy.

Shocking news 61 years old is to young to get something like that
