That Anheuser-Busch Co (makers of Budweiser) take over was by a Belgian Brewer. I couldn't believe that Political leaders or the Anheuser Busch Co would allow for this deal to go through. Other people were shocked aswell. This name was an American Icon.
Molson-Coors are separate, they were not involved in the deal.
I'm not trying to prove you wrong Rhonda. I know your not really much into debating. (immature arguing) It's just that I was closely watching this senerio unfold. |

AC/DC's new single, "Rock 'N Roll Train", will receive its world premiere on www.iHeartMusic.com tonight at midnight. The track, from the group's upcoming album "Black Ice", will arrive at radio stations nationwide on Thursday (August 2 . According to Billboard.com, which got an advance listen to the album, "Black Ice" is a "15-track extravaganza that frequently echoes the down-and-dirty rock 'n'roll of its iconic 1980 album 'Back in Black'." |

"Rock 'N' Roll Train" is classic AC/DC from start to finish, with bluesy riffs, a rock-solid tempo and a scorching solo from Angus Young.
According to a posting on the unofficial AC/DC web site AC/DC Highway To Hell, a limited-edition "deluxe edition" version of AC/DC's new "Black Ice" will include a blue AC/DC logo and will be packaged in a special hardcover package. It will also come with a 30-page expanded booklet with exclusive new illustrations, studio and live photographs of AC/DC.
ACDC. com has started a brand new feature called "AC/DC 101" which can be found here. This new feature will give you an in-depth look of AC/DC's history decade by decade, and also offers a cool new widget which will have "On This Day" AC/DC news of events that happened through the band's career.
"Black Ice", the band's first studio album in eight years, will arrive on October 20 and will sold exclusively at Wal-Mart, Sam's Club and ACDC. com in the U.S. All three plan multiple promotional campaigns aimed at the group's millions of fans.
AC/DC was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2003. The band has sold more than 200 million albums worldwide, including 69 million in the U.S. alone.
"No Bull: The Director's Cut", a chronicle of the band's famed July 1996 concert at the Plaza De Toros De Las Ventas in Madrid, Spain, was released on DVD and Blu-ray September 9.

I believe they'll add cities due to demand as the tour unfolds. They did this in Toronto where they added two days back to back and added Ottawa. Maybe Montreal will get added. There is a lot of money in Alberta so they'll probably add Calgary or Edmonton. |

I agree they are worth it, but when you only get 900 to live on for the month and 652. of that goes towards bills and food... bit a whole lot left over for the month......  (with no payday in sight until the following month)

| Did you know Angus and Malcolm have two other succesfull brothers (George & Alex) that played guitar and paired off in bands in the early 60s? Their music is pop though. It isn't ACDCish. One other brother, Paul Young who sang pop and Disco. Remember that hit song "Love is in the Air" that's their brother! Yes, singing the original hit. Guess three of the five brothers didn't get electrocuted by the High Voltage fuse box. |

woops! My mistake. Paul Young is not a brother of Angus and Malcom.
Paul Young's songwriter and producer is George Young who is the older brother of Angus and Malcom. George and Harry Vanda wrote this and many other JPY hits... in fact, they wrote lots of hits for lots of people. |

Due to overwhelming demand, AC/DC have added second dates at the Allstate Arena in Chicago (November 1) and at The Forum in Los Angeles (December . The band's official fan club is holding an on-sale for these tickets that will function exactly as all others have. If you have already picked up a passcode for Chicago or Los Angeles but you were previously unable to purchase tickets, the codes will work for the new shows.
The band's November 9 show at Boston's TD Banknorth Garden sold out within 15 minutes as did the November 21 Columbus, Ohio, gig at that city's Schottenstein Center. Toronto fans took all of 30 minutes to snap up sell every single ticket for the 25,000-seater Rogers Centre.
To deter scalpers from selling tickets above box office price, the band is using the Paperless Ticketing system. This means tickets will not be transferable, and concertgoers will need only the credit card they used to purchase the tickets and a picture I.D. to enter the venue.
