The late Bon Scott...
- For example, in the AC/DC movie"Let There Be Rock", Bon Scott was asked by the interviewer, "Do you think you're a star?" Bon's answer probably would not be any of your answers. His response was simple and direct, with a laugh and a smile, "No, but sometimes I see stars." In another interview for BBC Radio One Network dated interestingly February 1978, Bon was asked, " How does it feel to be a rock star?" His response yet again was truly admirable; it was like he had never left the club circuit. "I don't know. I'll let you know when I get there." At this point in his career, he was playing to packed arenas as frontman for AC/DC, opening up for the top acts of the seventies, like Aerosmith, Ted Nugent and during the 1979 tour, Bon was asked why he wore a Lynyrd Skynyrd belt buckle on stage. "It was a tribute to one of my heroes, Ronnie Van Zant, who died as a Rock-n-Roll Martyr in a plane crash two years before. Had that not happened, AC/DC would have opened for them on the Highway to Hell tour". -
