Australia's greatest hard rockers play to raise funds for a statue of AC/DC singer Bon Scott.
Australian pub rock legends The Angels and Rose Tattoo join more acts to pay tribute to the man UK Classic Rock magazine picked as the greatest rock n' roll frontman of all time: Bon Scott.In February this year, on the 26th anniversary of his death, Bon Scott's grave in Fremantle Cemetery in Western Australia was classified as a heritage site. Now organisers in his boyhood home of Fremantle, Western Australia (including the Mayor) are raising funds to erect a statue of the cheeky, Scottish-born rock icon.
A concert on February 25, just six days after the 27th anniversary of his passing, promises Oz rock legends playing Bon-era AC/DC classics and their own hits. As well as Rose Tattoo and The Angels, the event will feature supergroup The Party Boys (featuring members of Buffalo, Mondo Rock, Status Quo, and Shania Twain's band), plus Dave Warner, The Spazzys and The Flairz.
The concert will be held at the Claremont Showgrounds in Western Australia with all funds going towards the statue. More information can be found at www.bonscottconcert.com.au.
