Phil's teeth rotted out of his head a few years ago from methamphetamine abuse. He has dentures but doesn't wear them all the time for some bizarre reason.Quote

The tour is even longer...

Managed to catch him in Flensburg, the town I was raised...
it was a great R&R show. They played most of Headjob and
3 AC/DC songs of the Bon - Era: R&R Damnation, Up To My
Neck In You and Shot Down In Flames. Btw: The show lasted
for 45 minutes...but was great anyway. He is still working
hard and never misses a beat.
We managed to get autographs after the show.
But has he got teeth problems? It looks like he hasn´t much left.

Angus also lost all of his teeth in the '70s due to poor oral hygiene and excessive sugar consumption. There are plenty of photos of him with rotted out teeth before he got dental implants.
Ha, never heard that story! I just remember reading that he lived on soda and candy bars as a young man, and by the time he was in his 20s, his teeth were goners.Quote

And we all know that Keith has implants...his teeth probably wasted away due to heroin, which leeches calcium from the body.

...this could have been far worse. I heard Sammy Hagar was up for the gig.
AC/Hagar doesn't sound as good as AXL/DC.

No, it was NEVER seriously considered except by Marc Storace himself. He was actually pretty cool about it when asked in an interview...Quote

Whatever happened to the rumour of the singer from Krokus joining Angus and company? Or maybe it was just speculation or wishful thinking...possibly buried somewhere in this very long thread...
Whatever the case, he sounds pretty close to Bon Scott, not to mention Krokus sounds alot like Bon era AC/DC.
KROKUS - Long Stick Goes Boom
Maybe he was never option given his age.

See my edit above - he was actually asked to audition to take the place of Bon Scott but refused!
edit: I see your blabbermouth link covers some of the same issues.

AC/Hagar doesn't sound as good as AXL/DC.
While it might not roll off the tongue as easily, and might be questionable when seeing it on paper, I happen to think AC/Hagar might have been a better option.
No it wouldn't be perfect, and yes it might have diluted the sound beyond recognition, but when it comes down to it Sammy's vocals are very strong!
Imagine Highway to Hell or Back in Black sung by the Red Rocker...all I can think of is WIN!
And if AC/Hagar doesn't sound quite right, they could have been known as Sammy/DC...
That being said, I couldn't stand Van Hagar, so maybe it's best the way it is.

But aside from all that, any word on what's happening with the band? Are they recording some new stuff with Axl?
You know AC/DC...they will go years without doing interviews or giving updates on anything regarding the band. The years in between Stiff Upper Lip and Black Ice were excruciating for fans, who started fearing they'd quietly retired, or were having health issues.Quote

I think they will.

Future in 2018 with Angus, Stevie, Chris (?), a new bass player and I think Axl.
