  • cool

  • AC/DC being inducted into the R&R HOF is legitimate. They deserve it but for the most part there are dozens of bands who belong there but aren't even considered. I think the R&R HOF is a farce based on favoritism. What a joke. I will never watch or support a TV program for this. Rock and roll execs should do what is right and not what they think should be. Congrats to AC/DC but look at the bands who should also be there and aren't.

  • @CatMan1515 that's true, but the commitee that chose the bands each year is very small, so the votation is not very transparent per se, one is the rolling stone magazine creator jann wenner, as a result, if a band don't get on with them very well, you can't be inducted, that explains why very few metal bands are inducted, ac dc is too important and big to jump that obstacle, but other bands were not lucky enough. other reason is the rating,

  • this guy is odd... BUT THE GREATEST INTRODUCTION EVER

  • AC/DC LO MEJOR DEL ROCK ..........

  • Oh hell yea!!!

  • I ♥ AC/DC 

  • Angus have hiperactivit... hehe... Nice induction from Steve!!

  • AC/DC is my favorite Rock 'N' Roll band ever

  • Sad he didn't get their discography right...I mean, the whole R'n'R Hall of Fame didn't get it right, cos he was reading off the screen...

    TNT 1st album?? oh well..

  • Greatest induction speech ever!

  • WTF steve said AC/DC with metal, AC/DC isn't metal! their hard rock!!!

  • @Tenaciousrocker1993 Well, it's just Rock'n'Roll in general. It had different names in different decades....

    it was called Hard Rock in the '70 & Heavy Metal in the '80s....

    But basically it's one same thing all along: it's just Rock'n'Roll.

  • My friend was complaining about the price of ACϟDC tickets. So, I told in my best Rock N Roll voice,that ACϟDC can charge $80 a ticket because they're AC Motherfucking DC.

  • nO PUEDE SER QUE LAP UTA DE MADONNA ENTRE AL SLAON DEL ROCK , SI VOS QUIEREN POP ARMEN LO SUYO ,MADONNA PUTA MIL VECES PUTA. ACDC LO MEJOR DEL ROCK HARD ROCK QUE EL RESTO Y ESO ES OBVIO.

  • AC/DC 4 EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Remember that Brian clearly stated that he was Never brought in to "replace" Bon..He was chosen because Bon was there no more but in spirit...Brian had some very tough shoes to fill back in 1980 but clearly AC/DC fans around the world accepted him with open arms!! It was Bon Scott's family themselves who encouraged the boys to carry on because they all agreed that it's what Bon would have wanted!! It was so cool of AC/DC to have Bon's nephews onstage with them to accept the award!!

  • Comment removed

  • The big .l.. ..l. to society.

  • Brian Johnson seems like a very approachable guy. Watch his Top Gear interview and lap around the track, it is one of the celebrity interviews I have enjoyed the most.

  • Who are the 3 pratts who dislike ,why log on to this rock a roll hall of fame presentation,gotta be freaks

  • such a gr8 chemistry ACDC

  • i love them but why they don''t have any slow song mellow?

  • @MrOutsider82 because they are AC/DC, and that isn't what they do

  • @MrOutsider82 Ride on is a slow one, but that's the only one I can think of.

  • oh my god, acdc do not often use powerchords, what a dumbass:D

  • do all the people who moan about brian johnson wish ac/dc had just curled up and died along with bon?, roll on another album and another tour so the real fans can enjoy the greatest show on earth, let there be rock!

  • The youngsters in the audience that the camera focuses on every now and then, are they sons and daughters of the band members?

  • i like brian better than bon. He's been with the band much much longer, so hes more a part of the band

  • Yea big respect to Bon, but theres no need for Brian to recite lyrics and say Bon Scott wrote that! Then to get his nephew to come up when Brian was singer since the boy was about 2 anyway! Pointless!!

    Brian J = Legend

  • Three Justin Bieber fans watched this speech.

  • AC/DC is by far one of the greatest rock n' roll bands of all time!

  • Excellent band of Rock and Roll!

  • With no disrespect to Cliff Williams,but shouldn't Mark Evans have been there as well?

  • @TheWheelofLife100 No. Cliff brought much more power and song-writing, as well as versiatility to the music that was really missing in Mark's playing. You can really hear a difference with how the music was written to enhance Cliff's bass, where as Mark just hit a bunch of random notes and called it a bass line.

  • NO band has deserved to be in the R&R Hall of Fame more than these guys. They are the very sole embodiment of rock and roll in it's absolute purest form. The only other band who could rightfully share that title is the Rolling Stones ( which ironically enough, is the only band to share a stage together with AC/DC!) God bless this fucking band for EVERYTHING they have given to us all . NO ONE can ever hold a candle to these guys in my opinion. I'd follow them right down the Highway to Hell!

  • @clockworkmike83 could not have said it better myself.....have been a fan since 1979 and they are to me, Bon Scott era is the greatest rock n roll band ever

  • @clockworkmike83 well bloody said mate!!! ac/dc for ever

  • ladies and genitales OMG LOL xD

  • @Bmorethuggn

    If they where the "worst band in history"(hope i never have to say that again) why did you search them, smart one

    p.s. AC/DC IS ONE OF THE BEST BANDS IN THE FU*CKING WORLD!!!!!!!!

  • im lucky i live in ohio!

  • THERE IS ONE BAND DESERVE TO BE THERE

    THEY R LEGENDARY

    3 TIMS WORLD MUSIC AWARD FOR THE BEAT ROCK N ROLL BAND

    , LIFE TIME MUSIC AWARD , 30 PLATINUM AND 100 X GOLD

    THEY SELL MORE THEN ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTY THOUSAND ALBUMS WORLD WIDE

    THEY R THE REASON OF THE BERLIN WALL CAME DOWN

    THE LEGENDARY SCORPIONS

  • @Bmorethuggn

    DICK HEAD

  • great speech and truly funny

  • @Bmorethuggn  LOL...."be more thuggin?" this aint the lil wayne channel man.

  • @Bmorethuggn i guess you are a bieber fan ?

  • Steven Tyler is so well spoken here.

  • @IDSTARTAREVOLUTION2 Yes, his speech was great. But ironically he talks about how AC/DC never turned pop but somehow he let Aerosmith turn pop. Oh well. Bon and Brian were / are both great!

  • Brian Johnson: A class act all the way.

  • ive seen AC/DC twice in 2009. compared to Bon, Brian is better in all aspects. Bon was good, I'll give credit there. But Bon wouldnt run full steam into the Hell's Bell rope. Bon wouldnt shake hands in the audience. And Bon damn sure wouldnt do "Back in Black" or "Thunderstruck" justice. Why? Cuz he's been dead for 31 years.

  • won a ticket, saw this show in NYC, it was amazing!!! what a great intro & there is another clip where Steven Tyler sings You Shook Me with AC/DC, it was wonderful!!!! thanks for posting this, what a memory...

  • AC/DC and Aerosmith 4ever !!!!! I just dont understand why AC/DC wasnt introtuced till 2003? they were Legondary since the start !

  • Its so funny how Brian's been in the band for 31 years and is still considered the new guy.

  • @TheHappynot i have the explanation: bon scott was incredible on stage

  • c'mon!! It's been almost 30 years Brian joined AC/DC ....it now defininatively history, weeping at the graves of our idols wouldn't bring back them to earth, so ...the show must go on ... if possible .... and it WAS

  • For those who underrate Brian... We don't salute you! Brian, Angus, Malcom, Phil, Cliff and BON are fuckin music LEGENDS! ACDC FOR LIFE!

  • ur the god bon . i grew up with acdc and bon was the real shit kids these day dont know shit hate when people say brain was better bon ur the fucken best

  • Have seen them 3 times in Houston,Texas...Amazing! they never get told!

  • @sara31tx *old

  • So much Class Brian Showed with the Shout out to Bon Scott...AC/DC FUCKEN ROCKS

  • I cannot believe that Madonna is in the Rock & Roll H.O.F.!!!

    It just devalues the whole thing completely:-(

    Hopeless tramp...

    Aerosmith and Acca Dacca forever!

  • Why all the bashing on Steven??? He is a legendary singer and is a better vocalist than Bon/Brian. But with all do respect ACDC best from Australia and aerosmith best from the US.

  • how many of you before you ever head angus young speak were expecting him to hav a really high pitched voice?....i saw em in the tacoma dome in november 2008 they were really good

  • how many of you before you ever head angus young speak were expecting him to hav a really high pitched voice?

  • whats with all the aerosmith and tyler bashing? Tyler gave a good speech to induct these guys and i dont understand all the bashing. Oh and for whoever said aerosmith havent done anything good since toys in the attic, thats laughable. Both Rocks and Pump are great albums

  • It's about time that AC/DC got induction into the Rock 'n' Roll hall of Fame

  • two hardest working men in Rock n Roll ! JAMES BROWN & ANGUS YOUNG !

  • 2 people dislike the rock'n'roll

  • My biggest problem with the rock and roll hall of fame is that its trying to gain a large audience of CUSTOMERS by adding people that really should not be there, like Madonna and Grand Master Flash

  • Fuck the rock n roll hall of fame. Madonna is in the Rock and Roll hall of fame. ON WHAT PLANET IS MADONNA EVEN WORTHY TO BE IN THE SAME LEAGUE AS ACDC?

  • @funnyfunny13 wow are you fucking kidding me? I didn't know that..... fuck madonna <_<

  • @funnyfunny13 In what world is Madonna Rock and Roll?

  • @funnyfunny13 ah you said it friend

  • @funnyfunny13 Madonna and Grandmaster Flash in. Deep Purple isn't. Where is the justice in this? The Rock and Roll hall of Fame is too political.

  • @kingfish4242 it is scandalous that Deep Purple aint in the HOF yet. Dire Straits are also long overdue..Knopfler is a wizard on the guitar.

  • @kingfish4242 don't blame madonna for that, blame the bloddy commitee, deep purple motorhead maiden, all that bands should have been inducted many year ago, but she deserved it too,

  • Comment removed

  • one of the best rock n roll bands !

  • Yet Bon was unbelievable. Brian sounds allot

    Like him at times. Yet he still does it his way. Brian is an amazing singer in his own right and in no way has he ever claimed he was better than Bon ever ever ever. Bon Scott = great lost sound. Brian great new sound. Angus and Malcolm Young = AC/DC period!!!!

  • Ok try this. To say acdc would not be in the hall without Bon is ridiculous. If Johnson were first. The back in black album had nothing to do with Bon at ALL! Yet it's the second best selling album in HISTORY. FACT. Angus and Malcom are the only founding & continuos members. They got ACDC there not Bon Not Brian

  • @TheJedi270 really bac in black nothing to do with bon?? cover was black because of his deah and it was a tribute to him

  • @juank12345ps3 Yes yes I know that duh I meant the lyrics and the arrangment were all done so Brian could sing it. Angus and malcom wrote the music but Bon died before they could tell him about it. I was talking about music wise. Yes tribute. Anyother no. Brian has been nothing but respectful towards Bon. And if anyone were born to sing with ac/dc in bons stead Brian Johnson was. No other could do it. And let's not forget. They really didn't hit it real big till Brian give him a break guys.

  • @TheJedi270 yeah... its a long way to the top isnt played anymore in respect to bon right?

  • AC/DC aren't "rebel" or badass.

    they're just aussies.

    They just act that way.

  • finaly! 30 fucking years overdue!

  • Why all the arguing man? AC/DC got inducted into the Rock'n'Roll hall of fame......."PARTY TIME!!!!!" and thats 'exactly' what Bon would say.

  • haha so cute in the beginning! Angus gets picked up and carried away lol

  • This Hall is full of Shit! Full of Rolling Stone fuckin magazine flaks. Jaan, blow me! These are go bands, but until a ton of bands are in and LL cool J is no longer nominated than it is nothing but horseshit!

  • He should've said "thank pete townshend for the powerchords"

  • Steven Tyler is a walking human embarrassment here but at leats he's inducting a great band!

  • I've had the privelage of meeting Brian (I live in Sarasota, his hometown now) and he truly is just a regular great guy. Very giving and humble.

    Bon couldn't be prouder, no doubt.

  • @modernway91 yes that's so true. Just once the 80s hit. They started in a new direction. Why don't they stay the way they were cuz that's how they got popular. My teacher told me that more bands that get modern is better cuz their tours are grossing the highest- like U2. I always asked my dad do you like^(A)^ he's like they're ok. But I like AC/DC more. Well guess who has the 2nd bestselling album of all time worldwide? AC/DC! But I do have a crush on Steven Tyler. Hmm

  • i met him there man hell of a nice guy

  • Actually it's 25 years since their first Hit record, so they couldn't have gotten in until 2000 - 01.

  • Steven Tyler's mouth will suck 5 asses at the same time. I only like the old aerosmith but after only 2 albums they blew it. I knew Scott wouldn't even accept the award. 1st 97' they werent accepted now 03'. that's a whole lot of ass. If I was there I will shove it up tyler's ass. Oh wait I don't have to go that far. In his mouth instead

  • @dandyfireable Well I like AC/DC more than Aerosmith, but Aerosmith went into another direction. A bit more glam. But almost every band at that time had a glam period. Except AC/DC. If I would have found one sparkle in that Gibson SG, I would be pissed.

  • AC/DC is the Greatest Rock 'N' Roll band ever

  • Fuck AC/DC, hell yeah rock n Roll Hall of Fame.....No wait its the other way around!!!!!!! AC/DC earned when they came out.....They should have gotten in the first round!!! What is it 25 years to get in....They formed in 1972, They should have gone in, in 1997...2003 tell them to shuve it up there ass.

  • @fearlessfuryrebel its 25 since their 1st record. that was high voltage in 76 excluding the australian albums so they shoulda got it in 2001

  • ACϟDC

  • @SiadaApius HOW THE HELL DID U DO THAT!!!!!!! please!! i have to know!!!

  • AC/DC 4 EVER!!!

  • Bonn Scott would not even have accepted this award!He would have told 'em to stuff the award up their asses.I am glad I dont watch any of these boring ass shows when they are broadcast.It only makes me realize what a dick Steven Tyler is,every time!Notice how Angus and the rest of the band got nothin to say?They did it for Bonn,THAT'S IT!Let Bonn's nephew have a moment,he would have liked that,YEAH!Then :Lets get out of this dump!GO ANGUS!

  • @towncarguy04 The fuck are you talking? Steven is friends with Angus .. His attitude is everything that a "Rock Star" should be..

    If you want blessings and thanks you this and thank you that, *sniff *sniff, tune in to the country awards!

  • @Hempstraw To REPEAT,Bonn Scott would not even have accepted/attended this assinine event.The rest of the band did it to give Bonn's family the credit he deserved(coz he is dead and sometimes overlooked,get it?)and had nothing to say,or did ya miss that?Tyler is a first-class jackass as his comments,like his music since 1985,were written for him and he went out and did what he does best,make a jack-ass out of himself,fallin off stage,COOL?u watch those other awards.I would only puke watching it

  • @towncarguy04 oh, you've met Bonn Scott? I think you are spiteful at something. All of AC/DC rarely ever have anything to say, anywhere. Have you ever seen them in concert? Their music does their talking for them, hello!!!

    To think they weren't happy to be inducted into THE ROCK AND HALl OF FUCKING FAME is a naive statement!

  • Priceless

  • Why can't people give credit to Brian Johnson? Because AC/DC hit their breakthrough when Johnson came on board, and the band's international appeal was solidified. As such, many either forgot or were never aware of Bon Scott, so many fans dislike Johnson for this. They feel that Johnson was essentially replacing the old with the new, and "destroying" cherished memories of music. Not so. Scott and Johnson both have different styles; whereas Scott was extremely charismatic, Johnson has power

  • @spidervenom1992 I don't agree with this at all. Johnson gets plenty of credit, but the fact is the overwhelming majority of ACDC fans favor the early stuff to the Johnson era. They are both very good.... But many of us grew up on the late 70's ACDC, that stuff is classic.

    Without Bon Scott it is very likely there would have been no ACDC for Johnson to join.

    They are both great tho ..... Back in Black put BJ on the map forever....

  • @spidervenom1992 Brian has power but Bon had edge! Bon suited the old image of AC/DC Brian suits the new international flavour.

  • @spidervenom1992 Thankyou!!

  • @spidervenom1992 - and if i can add something spidervenom1992, Scott and Angus actually saw Brian Johnson play with Johnsons origional band. And Scott said "If I die, get him to do it".

  • @spidervenom1992 Agreed, Bon Scott was actually the first to notice Brian Johnson as a great singer. Scott saw him preforming with the band "Geordie." So I'm sure Scott himself wouldn't of had it any other way.

  • @spidervenom1992 Both singers were/are great. It is not like AC/DC kicked out or replaced Bon Scott he passed away leaving a void they could not bring back or even have the hope to bring back. Now as for what Brain did! Look at the album sells, and ticket sales from the first Album with Brian (Back in Black) to this day. You will see they sold Millions and gained Millions of fans more. If you like the shows? If you like quality recording and shows, it was $ made since Brain that paid for it!

  • @spidervenom1992 Completely agree. Johnson took them to another level.

  • @spidervenom1992 AC/DC is not defined by the voice of a singer, even though Brian´s my favourite. Angus, an specially Malcolm are the ones that give that beautiful guitar power that we love. Sorry about my english.

  • Bon Scott was a phenomenal singer and all-round frontman. The resonance of his voice and the electricity in his perfomances are sadly missed. However, it shows the strangth of the band that they could come back from such a devastating loss to go and rock the world. AC/DC paid their dues long ago playing in countless small venues, keeping the faith and hoping that one day they could get the break. Fortunately for the rock world, they did. This is an honour well and truly deserved.

    AC/DC forever!

  • the greatest rock band of all time, no fukin doubt about it

  • how does such a big balls get in such a small pants? :DD

  • I love Bon Scott but Brian Johnson's voice was so much heavier and AC/DC became one the biggest rock band's of all times

  • sick of everyone hating on brian. Bon was great. Brian continued it. And hes incredible. So fuck off you dont like him because hes one of the greatest singers ever that carried on one of the best bands ever

  • AC/DC fucking Rocks!

    (Steven Tyler sucks ass)

  • @Mr8bitgamer fuck you dumbass there both good

  • People will always remember Bon, nobody cares who Brian is.

  • bon made acdc.......brian johnson carried on that image he created

  • AC/DC is, and will always be, the ultimate middle finger of rock 'n' roll! Long live Bonn! Long live AC/DC!

  • they should'a brought up a lifesize cut-out of Bon...

  • HIIGH! Voltage ROCK N ROLL!!!!

  • This is kind of a stupid question, but who's the guy @ 0:07?

  • @SuntanSuperman8 Angus Young.

  • @SuntanSuperman8 Angus Young :D

  • @SuntanSuperman8 I hope you're joking. Honestly.

  • Comment removed

  • @TheGrantCave problem?

  • The thunder from down under! AC/DC is the only band that can make a career last without moving forward musically! Great band though!

  • i love his metaphors!!!!!!

  • The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is a JOKE! I mean Michael Jackson is in it Madona, Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, etc. NONE of which had ANYTHING to do with rock n roll!! But people like Megadeth, Alice Cooper, Rush, Motorhead, Judas Priest, Iron Maiden FUCK YOU ROCK AND ROLL HALL OF FAME!!

  • Is it my imagination or does Steven Tyler look oddly much taller than all the members of AC/DC...? didnt know Tyler to be tall..lol ..

  • @misshair, Angus is 5'2, Malcolm 5'3, Brian and Phil 5'6 and Cliff 5'7 I think.

  • Im sick of Brian acting like a replacement or a outcast. Don't get me wrong I love Bon and on a lot of stuff I think he is better then Brian, but with Bon AC/DC was a bar band who played infront of 4000 people most the time. Brian brought them to huge arenas and a great live show with bombs and explosions which they never had with Bon. In my opinion Brian is the chemistry of AC/DC but Bon was amazingly good and musically most likely better then Brian.

  • @TheHappynot, Bon gave AC/DC their image and direction, without him they wouldn't be where they are today. They were poised to play the big arenas when Bon died, Brian simply stepped in where Bon left off. Not knocking Brian, but without Bon's live voice and charisma, they wouldn't be standing on this stage. Had they hired Brian in 1975 instead of Bon, no way would have they been as big.

  • the hall takes a lot of criticism there are still alot of people who are not in there.

    KiSS, Rush, Alice Cooper, Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Motor Head, April Wine, Journey, Steppenwolf, Boston, The Guess Who. Thank god AC/DC is in there though.

  • @TheHappynot Oh yeah!!!!!!

  • @TheHappynot don't forget heart, thin lizzy, and Yes!

  • @TheHappynot

    Then you're missing the point.

    They don't induct all those bands ON PURPOSE.

    Think about it- if they inducted every great band there was in the 70/80/90 right away, they won't be able to keep having these ceremonies.

    They WANT to keep these annual shows running, and they need big bands every year, so they don't waste all their "hot ammunition" right away, they keep some for later years.

    Further evidence to that: Alice Cooper is an inductee in 2011.

  • 1 dislike = 1 person is mentally retarded LOL

  • LEGENDS

    

  • Ride on Bon!

  • thank god some idiot FINALLY said..."hey, what about AC/DC?" it took too fucking long!

  • Don't Let Bonn's Death Be In Vien, Stop listening to shit like hip hop, rap, and pop!

  • @guitarlordification its not often you see a dedicated fan anywhere these days i myself am one of two at my school.i actually dressed up as a school boy for halloween in dedication to Angus Young.

  • @Ozzyfan140 Nice, so did I. Then the next year I dressed as BOnn, Then Brian the Next year and the next year I tried to dress as every member of ac/dc in one costume.

  • AC/DC ain't heavy metal, they're rock and roll.

  • Best shit I`ve ever seen.

  • j'ai pas tout compris (i m french...sorry nobody's perfect !!)
