Nervous Shakedown

As there´s nothing much happening over here in Europe but anticipating the BLACK ICE Tour
to come over here I´ll just post some old pictures I took at the Rasunda footballstadium in Stockholm on the 25 of August 1984.



HAPPY NEW YEAR by the way!!

That's The Way I Want My Rock N Roll

Well now i know how Phil Rudd must feel after a show.

My son got ROCKBAND for Wii for christmas and we have been rocking since.

Playing the guitar is OK, even singing to my favourite band is OK, but drumming is something totally other than the else. I now understand all the bad drummer jokes floating around, you must be totally whacked to be able to play the drums.


But the drumming aside, this is good clean family entertainment I tell you! We will be rocking for many an hour yet!!

Brian Johnson author shock!!

According to the Sarasota Herald Tribune 18 Dec.
Our favourite frontman is going to write a
book about himself. he's going to write, amongst
other things, about his love of cars. He says to the Herald:
“cars have been a big part of my life. I’m lucky enough that I’m able to buy some of the exotic ones. Instead of doing drugs, I did motorcars. I’m not sure which one is more expensive."

I will of course attend both of the shows at the Globe Arena, Stockholm in February next year. The first of the two shows sold out in 11 minutes flat and the second one in about 20.
I managed to get tickets to both of the shows!!

Money Talks


Money will get you far,
it will at least get you
records and merchandise.
These are a few items i´ve purchased from their latest release BLACK ICE.
What you see in the picture is all of the different CD versions of the album and the vinyl copy too.

containing not only the album itself but also a DVD of the making of
R n R Train video a few stickers and a AC/DC plectrum (i.e Pic for you yanks).

For Those About To Blog...

Hi there all you Acca Dacca fanatics out there around the globe!

There has been an 8 year long wait for the
new Acca Dacca album to hit the streets.
There has been an equal long time since my old AC/DC site
called The PoweragePage been defunct.

I´ve been itching to get a new site going but time
and money isn´t allways on your side, now is it? I´ve only
recently found out about this new type of forum called a "blog".
It´s ever so much like an ordinary "site" but without the need to
scribble a vast amount of HTML-code.

But enough of this already!
My soul purpose of this here blog is to spread the gospel according to AC/DC.
And also share my thoughts and expectations about the spanking brand new -
BLACK ICE WORLD TOUR.
