AC/DC Question

[cdjunky41]

Anybody here know's who tried out for the band after Bon's passing?

Yes, we know of Brian Johnson and I think I read somewhere that MARK STORACE (KROCUS) tried out for them.

I know Allan Fryer from the band Heaven applied. Great band and great voice. I cannot see him fitting in to Angus and the boys. Not gritty enough.

I have a biography of the band that mentioned some names but I loaned out the book and can't look up the info.

 

from wikipedia:

 

various candidates were considered for his replacement, including Buzz Shearman, ex-Moxy member, who was not able to join because of voice problems, and ex-Back Street Crawler vocalist Terry Slesser, who turned down this opportunity when he decided not to join an established band and instead started a solo career.

Damn, damn, damn. I just recently finished reading the book "MAXIMUM ROCK N ROLL" about AC/DC and it does mention some other names that were approached by the band to replace Bon, but I can't remember any of'em off the top of my head. If I have time later I'll take that book down off the shelf and try and find that section again.
