Great band for a quick put together. Bon Voyage assembled for one night and was RecordedLiveAt. The Royal George for A tribute performance for, Ronald Belford Scott who was born on 9 July 1946. It was at Sunshine Primary School that he received his nickname; there was already a classmate with the name Ronald and as he had recently arrived from Bonnie Scotland he was dubbed "Bon" and the name stuck. In 1974 AC/DC's lead singer was Dave Evans, but soon the Young brothers decided that Evans was not a suitable frontman for the group. Scott, who had become the band's driver, expressed an interest in becoming their drummer, but the band kept telling him they didn't need a drummer, they needed a singer. Bon Scott replaced Dave Evans as the lead singer of AC/DC in September 1974. On 19 February 1980, Bon Scott, 33 at the time, passed out after a night of heavy drinking in a London club called the Music Machine.
