LISTEN UP, YOU FILTHY ANIMALS! If you don't know the name BON SCOTT, then you don't know jack about rock and roll! Bon was the ultimate wild man. He had the voice, the grit, and the attitude that made AC/DC the biggest, loudest, and baddest band on the planet! Even though he left us way too soon, his legend is still crushing everything in its path. And guess what? 2026 marks what would have been his 80th birthday, and the world is celebrating with a massive explosion of metal glory! HELL YEAH!
This isn't some weak, quiet tribute. This is a full-on assault! We are getting SILVER AND GOLD BARS with Bon’s face on them from the Perth Mint! Can you imagine? Real metal for a real metal god! There’s also a new statue coming from Knucklebonz based on the Powerage tour. If you don't want a statue of Bon rocking out on your shelf, you’re clearly listening to the wrong music!
But wait, it gets even better! We’re getting killer new gear to wear. Dixxon Flannel is dropping a "Heritage" Tartan shirt, and there’s even a "Bon 80" football jersey. I don't care if you don't play sports—you wear this to the pit and show everyone who the king is! Plus, the ABC is dumping a ton of rare video content onto Bon's YouTube channel. We’re talking interviews with legends like Scott Ian from ANTHRAX and Sammy Hagar talking about why Bon still rules our world 46 years later!
The parties are going to be INSANE! Bonfest in Scotland is turning 20 years old and it’s already SOLD OUT! They’ve got former AC/DC drummer Chris Slade showing up to melt faces! If you can't make it to Scotland, New York City is throwing a massive Birthday Bash, and the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame is screening the Let There Be Rock movie! This is the kind of high-voltage energy we live for! Bon Scott is the reason we headbang, and 2026 is going to be the year of the legend! LONG LIVE BON SCOTT!
Want more headbanging action? Tune into THE CLASSIC METAL SHOW LIVE every Saturday night from 9pm to 3am Eastern on Rumble, X, Substack or Odysee!
