On this weeks show Chris and Steve talks about keeping your bike safe from theft as unfortunately Melbourne has seen a increase in peoples pride and joy being nicked due to combination of things like opportunistic theft, use of cordless power tools and organised activity.We discuss basic tips such as situational awareness, eg, where your bike is locked, using two bike locks, bike lock security levels, removing quick releases & components, observing that sheffield loops & steel poles are secure on the street, bike lock types, bike lock brands, bike lock reviews (these are literally endless) keeping your bike locked while at home, apartment storage units, household insurance, recording and registering your bike with a service like Bike Vault. Apologies we didn't have time to mention gps trackers in any detail and a whole bunch of extra tips.Local news includes South Crescent safety under threat - four things you can do to make a submission or public question at Darebin Council 28 January meeting, Critical Mass Yarra: Friday 31 January 2025: Meet 5.30pm State Library, Swanston Street, naarm, Melbourne.

On this weeks program Chris catches up with Karen Hovenga to talk about local Yarra issues, including what the new council maybe planning for narrowing protected bikes lanes in Elizabeth Street, whatever the future holds for intersection treatments at Coppin Street in Richmond and direct quote from petition linked below: "continue to implement Yarra's Transport Action Plan 2024-2034 including the New Deal for Schools, New Deal for Cycling, New Deal for Walking and other specified programs to meet the ambitious targets in Yarra's Transport Strategy 2022-32" Local news includes call-outs for assistance from Bite Sized Rides and Bike Rave Melbourne.Karen talks about how several generations of her family easily use the Elizabeth Street protected lanes, their connection to City of Melbourne's Albert Street protected lanes that creates a vital east-west route, being able to ride plenty of short trips to local destinations but decision-makers being unable to vote on equitable transport solutions for anything other than cars. We comment upon how successive generations build upon road safety improvements, in reference to Janet McCalman's award-winning classic ‘Struggletown, Public and Private Life in Richmond 1900-1965' which included horrifying road fatalities statistics of the post war era, where thirty people died on Richmond roads in April 1949.Coming up at the end of the month is Critical Mass Yarra: Friday 31 January 2025, meet 5.30pm, Friday 31 January 2025, State Library, Swanston Street, naarm, Melbourne. Ride, scoot and skate through our traditional home grounds of Fitzroy, Collingwood & Richmond. Many thanks to Sam Wallman for adapting his Freedom Machine design. Like it?

Welcome to another iteration of the Monday Breakfast show, broadcasted from 3CR on the lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation.  The episode begins with two speeches from the Free Palestine rally on the 23rd of June: First up is Hijrah Ahmad of Anak Bangsa Merdeka "Children of Free Nations" Collective on the need for decolonisation, and the precedent set by Western powers in allowing Israel to commit its genocide of the Palestinian people. Hijrah spoke from the infamous truck used as a stage for all Free Palestine rallies in Naarm — this week it was parked at an intersection on Swanston Street along the rally route. Organisers were unable to park it at the State Library due to being blocked by police and other authorities. Following that we hear from Prue Stevenson, a Disability Activist, Artist and Change Agent on the steps of Vic Parliament. They spoke of intersectionality, friendship as resistance, and why the genocide in Palestine is a disability issue. After those speeches, we listen to a two-part segment from the Making Contact show from the 11th of June about US encampment and divestment from Israel. US students called for divestment in 70s and 80s from South African apartheid and it was successful. During the segment, the hosts discussed what the endowments are, how they function, how they are invested as well as looking at Yale's endowment model. The Making Contact show airs from 9 - 9:30AM on Tuesday mornings, or alternatively can be listened to online here.This Thursday the 27th of June Black Spark Cultural Centre will host a conversation between Marisa Holmes and Iain McIntyre about the Occupy Wall Street movement. Marisa Holmes is the author of Organizing Occupy Wall Street: This is Just Practice (2023), NY-based activist, organiser and filmmaker. Marisa is the director of All Day All Week: An Occupy Wall Street Story, which tells the story of the OWS movement by those who were there. To tell us more about the event and to reflect on the movement, Rob spoke with Marisa.

Sus álbumes se han vendido en un total estimado de 200 millones de copias,​​ embarcándose en giras multitudinarias por todo el mundo, y sus éxitos han musicalizado varias producciones cinematográficas sobresalientes.​​​​ Son famosas sus actuaciones en vivo, resultando vibrantes y exultantes espectáculos de primer orden.​ Mucho de ello se debe al extravagante estilo de su guitarrista principal y símbolo visual, Angus Young; quien asume el rol de guitarrista principal durante los conciertos, gracias a sus dinámicos y adrenalínicos despliegues escénicos uniformado de colegial callejero.​ Al comienzo, los conciertos y tiempos por los cuales sufrieron diversos cambios en su alineación.​​ En 1974, la llegada del cantante Bon Scott se convertiría en pieza clave del éxito del grupo. Su presencia en escena, lo convirtió en uno de los personajes más carismáticos de la historia del hard rock .​​​ La formación se estabilizaría con Cliff Williams (bajo) y Phil Rudd. En 1974 incursionaron por primera vez fuera de los conciertos en bandas de punk rock locales que ofrecían un contrapunto sonoro a las ampulosidades y la fastuosidad de las bandas que triunfaron en el mercado de la época.​​​ Ese mismo año se trasladaron Glasgow de donde procedían Desembarcaron en pleno auge del punk rock, lo que contribuyó a que en poco tiempo obtuvieron una enorme aceptación del público, ocupando inmediatamente los primeros puestos en ventas. La carrera triunfal del grupo, sustentada por la rudeza carismática, y la potencia rítmica del dominio guitarrero proseguirá con el multimillonario Highway to Hell, uno de los discos más emblemáticos de la historia del hard rock y del que se vendieron millones de copias,​​ que los catapultó hacia la fama en los y solidificó el estatus de superestrellas.​​ Cuando se encontraban en su mejor momento, tanto a nivel comercial como artístico, la desgracia se cruzó en sus caminos, cuando en el 19 de febrero de 1980, el vocalista Bon Scott falleció por intoxicación etílica.​​ No obstante, y pese a que se encontraban al borde de la separación, el grupo depositó su destino en la voz de Brian Johnson, ex-vocalista del grupo Geordie. Back in Black (1980), el disco homenaje al fallecimiento del mítico cantante original, y el cual a la postre se terminaría convirtiendo en el tercer álbum más vendido en la historia de la música, con más de 45 millones de unidades en el mundo, encajaría la figura de Johnson a la perfección en la imagen de AC/DC.​​​ El éxito de este trabajo disparó las ventas de todos los discos anteriores, desatando el fervor popular por la banda. Para mediados de 1981, todos los álbumes anteriores habían superado el millón de copias.​​ En la segunda mitad de la década de 1980, una serie de acontecimientos personales hicieron creer que el grupo ya había pasado sus mejores momentos. LP como Fly on the wall (1985), Who Made Who (1986) o Blow Up Your Video (1988) reiteraban los sonidos de pasadas entregas, hecho mal visto por un sector de la crítica.​​ A pesar de ello, sus discos se mantuvieron en las listas de éxitos hasta la siguiente década.​ The Razors Edge (1990), que contenía la enérgica «Thunderstruck», y el sencillo «Big Gun» (1993), elegida por Arnold Schwarzenegger para la banda sonora de su película El Último Gran Héroe,​ los posicionaron en las listas de los más vendidos de principios de los 90.​​​ Posteriormente, Ballbreaker (1995) y Stiff Upper Lip (2000) los mantendrían en los primeros planos de la industria musical.​​ Luego de varios años de pausa creativa, lanzaron Black Ice (2008), el penúltimo trabajo en estudio de la institución australiana, y en el cual se destaca el primer sencillo, «Rock 'n' Roll Train», lanzado a la radio un mes antes, siendo todo un éxito. Con este disco alcanzaron los 10 millones de copias en el mundo.​​​ Cuando afloraron los años de satisfacciones y reconocimientos, en septiembre de 2014, y luego de meses de hermetismo y sospechas en torno al grave estado de salud que padecía uno de los integrantes, el sitio de prensa de AC/DC confirma la retirada del guitarrista Malcolm Young debido a un cuadro de demencia.​​​ No obstante, y pese a la sensible baja de su mentor, la banda informó que continuaría haciendo música. Tanto para un nuevo disco, Rock or Bust, como para giras posteriores, la guitarra rítmica fue ocupada por el sobrino de los Young, Stevie Young.​En febrero de 2016, Brian Johnson tuvo que retirarse de la gira ante el riesgo de una pérdida auditiva completa, por lo que fue temporalmente sustituido por Axl Rose, líder y cantante de Guns N' Roses, hasta el final de la gira Rock or Bust.​​Recientemente, el bajista desde 1977 Cliff Williams ha anunciado que dejará la banda al terminar la actual gira.​ Con cuatro décadas de trayectoria, la banda ha superado los cambios en la alineación, la pérdida de históricos miembros, la controversia sobre su imagen y letras, y el constante cambio de las tendencias musicales, para convertirse en la actualidad en una de las bandas más importantes e influyentes de la historia, y con mayor capacidad de convocatoria.​​​ Hasta la fecha son una de las bandas más taquilleras de todos los tiempos.​​ Desde marzo de 2003, el grupo está incluido en el Salón de la Fama del Rock and Roll.​​ Aunque están comúnmente clasificados como hard rock, y considerados uno de los grandes influyentes del heavy metal, siempre han clasificado su música simplemente como rock and roll.​​ Malcolm Young y Angus Young idearon el nombre para la banda después de ver escrito «AC/DC» en la parte de abajo de la máquina de coser de su hermana Margaret (AC/DC es la abreviación en inglés de corriente alterna/corriente continua, que indica que un dispositivo eléctrico puede conectarse a la red eléctrica alterna e internamente la convierte en corriente directa o continua). Los hermanos sintieron que este nombre simbolizaba el sonido enérgico y crudo de la banda, así como el poder de sus actuaciones.​ No obstante, en alguna culturas, es un término de jerga para la bisexualidad. La banda ha dicho que ellos no eran conscientes de ese uso hasta que un taxista les llamara la atención una noche después de un concierto, por lo que durante años trataron de demostrar la heterosexualidad del grupo, sobre todo en las primeras canciones. Asimismo, la denominación del grupo ha dado espacio a la controversia por parte de organizaciones religiosas, quienes acusan un significado oculto de índole satánico detrás estas siglas.​ La banda negó estas interpretaciones de su nombre, y hasta se ha burlado de ellas.​​ El nombre «AC/DC» se pronuncia por deletreo (en inglés: ei-si/di-si; en español: a-ce/de-ce), y ha inspirado a numerosas bandas-tributo.​​ En 1963 la familia Young, como muchas otras familias escocesas en aquellos años, abandonó los barrios bajos de Glasgow a causa de la gran depresión económica que afectaba a toda Gran Bretaña, para buscar una mejor vida en Australia. Encabezados por el matrimonio William y Margaret Young, acompañados de siete de sus ocho hijos (Steven, Margaret, John, William, George, Malcolm y Angus), se instalaron en Sídney. En Europa se quedó Alex, que ya por aquel entonces era músico, tocaba el saxofón y el trombón, y fue el principal artífice para que sus hermanos se inclinarán por la rama de la música. George fue el primero en experimentar profesionalmente con la música. Junto a su amigo Harry Vanda fundó los Easybeats, una de las primeras bandas australianas de éxito, número uno en 1968 en las listas de medio mundo con «Friday on my mind». El tipo de música que hacían era un pop ligero, similar a lo que The Beatles tocaban por esos años. La experiencia fue fundamental para hacer nacer la pasión por la guitarra en otros dos hermanos de George: Angus y Malcolm. Casi al mismo tiempo, su hermana Margaret usaba sus ratos libres investigando los discos americanos de Elvis Presley, Little Richard, Buddy Holly y Chuck Berry. No pasaría mucho tiempo sin que sus hermanos menores se desvivieran por Berry, especialmente forma de ejecutar la guitarra y su coqueto Duck Walk. Mientras los fundadores de los Easybeats se convertían en los reyes de la escena musical australiana gracias a su compañía, Albert Productions, los menores de los Young comenzaron a organizar sus primeros grupos con sus compañeros de clase. Malcolm empezó a tocar la guitarra, abandonando la acústica y dedicándose de lleno a la eléctrica, hecho que le permitía al pequeño Angus apoderarse de los instrumentos que su hermano dejaba de lado. Empezó en un grupo llamado Beelzebub Blues, posteriormente fue componente de otra banda llamada Velvet Underground (no confundir con la banda americana del mismo nombre comandada por Lou Reed), pero no lograron trascendencia alguna. Además colaboró en 1972 en algunos trabajos del grupo de su hermano mayor George. La misma ansiedad por tocar hizo que, con sólo 17 años de edad, Angus forme su grupo Kantuckee. Por aquellos días, una vez que volvía a casa del colegio, Angus llegaba a los ensayos de su grupo todavía enfundado en su uniforme escolar. Su hermana Margaret pronto le sugeriría que los atuendos colegiales le serían más originales a la hora de salir a tocar, a modo de atracción. Angus encontró su primer y único trabajo en su vida como impresor para una revista pornográfica. Sin embargo, en 1973, recibe la llamada de Malcolm para unirse a un nuevo proyecto. En noviembre de 1973, Malcolm Young y Angus Young formaron AC/DC, reclutando al bajista Larry Van Kriedt, al cantante Dave Evans y al baterista Colin Burgess.​ Esta formación adoptó una imagen decididamente ambigua, en sintonía con la moda del glam-rock de la época. Los primeros ensayos se basaban en clásicos de blues y rhythm and blues. En los festivales de Año Nuevo de 1973, el grupo tocó su primer concierto, en un club llamado «Chequers», en los suburbios de Sídney.​ La estabilidad grupal no se mantendría por mucho tiempo: Van Knedt y Colin Burgess fueron los primeros miembros despedidos, y varios bajistas y bateristas pasaron por la banda durante el siguiente año, incluido George Young. (Ver lista de miembros de AC/DC). Sumado a ello, las cosas con Dave Evans no marchaban bien, y mientras se buscaba otro vocalista, el representante de la banda de aquella época, Dennis Laughlin, ayudó al grupo como vocalista en contadas ocasiones. Evans no se comprometía seriamente con el proyecto, y además tenía problemas personales con Angus, lo que también contribuyó al rechazo de la banda hacia Evans.​ Así y todo, en junio de 1974, los hermanos Young, Dave Evans, y los incorporados Peter Clack (batería), y Rob Bailey (bajo), se internan en Albert Studios de George y Harry Vanda, para registrar lo que sería el primer sencillo de la banda, lanzado por toda Australia y Nueva Zelanda, denominado «Can I Sit Next to You Girl» (y la cual posteriormente se regrabó con Bon Scott). Para entonces, y luego de ensayar varios atuendos, Angus Young ya había adoptado su característico uniforme escolar, siguiendo la idea de su hermana Margaret. El uniforme original era de su escuela secundaria, Ashfield Boys High School. Acto seguido, los Young se trasladan a Melbourne y contratan como representante a Michael Browning, pieza clave en el éxito de la banda por los cinco años siguientes, sobre todo cuando este contrata a Bon Scott, que, al igual que los Young, era un escocés radicado en Australia, y que había obtenido varios títulos como percusionista en la escuela, antes de abandonarla a los 16 años de edad. Muy pronto Angus y Malcolm se deshicieron del resto del grupo e iniciaron la búsqueda de miembros para una nueva formación. En septiembre de 1974, Bon Scott reemplazó a Dave Evans. Hasta entonces, el grupo solo había grabado un sencillo. Durante estos tiempos combinaron la agresividad y la imaginería violenta, todo ello salpicado de un peculiar sentido del humor. Bon Scott ayudó en gran medida a fomentar esa imagen violenta del grupo. Tenía varios delitos menores y fue rechazado del ejército por estar inadaptado socialmente.​ En enero de 1975, grabaron su primer álbum (aunque sólo para Australia), llamado High Voltage. Tomó diez días,​ y está basado en canciones instrumentales escritas por los hermanos Young, con letras escritas por Scott. Al cabo de unos pocos meses, la formación se estabilizó: Scott, los hermanos Young, el bajista Mark Evans y el baterista Phil Rudd. Más tarde, ese mismo año, editaron el sencillo It's a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll), que se convirtió en su himno.​ Este tema se incluye en su segundo álbum, T.N.T., que se publicó sólo en Australia y Nueva Zelanda. En el álbum aparece otra clásica canción, High Voltage. En 1975, firmaron un contrato internacional con «Atlantic Records» y comenzaron una gira europea, con la que ganaron una valiosa experiencia, tocando junto a grandes del hard rock, como Kiss, Aerosmith, Styx, Blue Öyster Cult y Cheap Trick entre otros.​ El grupo realizó otros dos discos en Australia: High Voltage (1975) y Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap (1976). El material de ambos álbumes sirvió para elaborar el High Voltage para Estados Unidos. En otoño de 1977, publicaron Let There Be Rock. Al año siguiente, se incorporó Cliff Williams, en el disco Powerage. Todos esos álbumes fueron producidos por Vanda y George Young. El ambiente de sus conciertos se refleja en If You Want Blood You've Got It. AC/DC se fue de gira con artistas como Alice Cooper, Rush, Aerosmith, Ted Nugent, Boston, Black Sabbath, Cheap Trick, Heart, Scorpions, Molly Hatchet, Ronnie Montrose, Nazareth, UFO, Journey, Foreigner, Van Halen, Styx, Blue Öyster Cult, Alvin Lee, Rainbow, Savoy Brown, REO Speedwagon, The Doobie Brothers, Thin Lizzy y The Who. Lo que realmente les abrió las puertas al éxito fue Highway to Hell (1979), producido por Mutt Lange, para muchos su mejor álbum y que alcanzó el puesto número 17 en las listas estadounidenses, y el número 8 en las británicas; fue el primero de sus trabajos en conseguir un millón de copias vendidas y figura en la lista de los 500 álbumes indispensables, elaborada por la revista Rolling Stone. El tema principal del LP, la canción «Highway to hell», acabaría convirtiéndose para muchos en todo un himno del rock and roll, de finales de los 70. Cuando todo parecía ir muy bien (tenían éxito de ventas en Europa y los Estados Unidos), la desgracia les cayó una noche en la que estaban parando en Londres. Ese 19 de febrero de 1980 perdieron a su vocalista. La causa de su fallecimiento fue una intoxicación etílica.​ Scott bebió de más en un club nocturno de Londres llamado «MusicMachine» (mejor conocido como «Camden Palace», y luego renombrado como «The KOKO»). Su íntimo amigo Alistair Kinnear lo llevó a descansar en su automóvil, estacionado frente al número 67 de Overhill Road in East Dulwich, en la zona sur de la ciudad. A la mañana siguiente, Kinnear llevó a Scott al hospital King's College en Camberwell, donde fue declarado muerto por intoxicación etílica. La tradición oral dice que se ahogó con su propio vómito, lo que fue desmentido por el mismo Kinear años después en una revista de rock la cual figura su nombre en la biografía de AC/DC escrita por Susan Massino.​ La familia de Bon Scott despidió sus restos en el cementerio de Fremantle, (Perth), el lugar a donde habían emigrado durante la infancia de Bon.​ Tras la muerte de Bon Scott la banda se plantea su continuidad, pero finalmente reclutan a Brian Johnson. El inglés provenía de la popular banda británica Geordie, y se dice que era el vocalista preferido de Scott. Johnson se encontraba sin grupo y meditaba si continuar en el mundo musical. Sin embargo, aceptó el reto y entró con el resto del grupo a grabar lo que sería uno de los grandes discos de los años 80: Back in Black, dedicado a Bon Scott, y bajo la producción de Robert Lange. Las cifras alcanzadas por este álbum son excepcionales: en los Estados Unidos, encabezó la lista de ventas durante cinco semanas y se mantuvo durante otras veinte en el Top 10 (estuvo en total durante 131 semanas en el Top 40). Cada uno de sus diez temas se convirtieron en un éxito en potencia, y en menos de seis meses se vendieron más de 10 millones de copias. Hasta la fecha, la RIAA le certifica 22 álbumes de platino, lo que se traduce en más de 22 millones de copias vendidas solo en los Estados Unidos. A nivel mundial, las ventas de este, se estiman superiores a los 45 millones de copias,​ figurando en la lista de los más vendidos de la historia, solo superado por el Thriller de Michael Jackson, lanzado un par de años más adelante. Asimismo por este álbum se le otorgaría un Disco de Uranio certificado de venta discográfica destinado solo a aquellos pocos artistas que vendieron más de 50 millones de copias.​ El éxito de Back in Black disparó las ventas de todos sus álbumes anteriores, desatando una «fiebre» por AC/DC. Aprovechando el impulso, el disco Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap fue reeditado en marzo de 1981 en los Estados Unidos (donde no había sido publicado en su primer lanzamiento, en 1976). Permaneció 55 semanas en la lista de los 40 más vendidos y obtuvo seis discos platinos. Asimismo, todos los anteriores discos del grupo superaron el millón de copias en julio del mismo año. En noviembre de 1981, se publicó For Those About to Rock (We Salute You), que sacaría a relucir el éxito con el mismo nombre. Al igual que los dos álbumes anteriores, fue producido por John Langue. Recibió una buena acogida entre los admiradores, pero no en la crítica. Obtuvo también buenas cifras en ventas, con un millón de copias vendidas en su primera semana y, en 2001, confirmó su cuarto álbum de platino. En mayo de 1983, el baterista Phil Rudd fue sustituido por Simon Wright. Tras ese relevo, en agosto vería la luz un nuevo LP: Flick of the Switch, el primer disco producido por Angus y Malcolm. El álbum hizo decaer el estatus comercial del grupo muy te, aunque se considera exitosa la canción, «Flick of the Switch». En octubre de 1984, editaron '74 Jailbreak un mini-LP con varias canciones inéditas y que conmemoraba sus diez años de existencia. En junio de 1985, es publicado Fly on the Wall, el álbum fue no bien recibido por los críticos y tuvo malas ventas. En mayo de 1986, publicaron Who Made Who, realizado especialmente para la película de Stephen King, Ocho días de terror («Maximum Overdrive»), y que obtuvo ventas bastante buenas. Este disco resucitó temas como «You Shook Me All Night Long» y «Ride On». En enero de 1988, volvieron con Blow Up Your Video, producido por Harry Vanda y George Young. Durante la gira de 1988, por causas personales, Malcolm Young fue sustituido por su sobrino Stevie Young (solo le sustituiría durante esa gira americana). En noviembre de 1989, Simon Wright abandonó temporalmente el grupo para incorporarse a Dio, y grabar el respectivo álbum de esa banda, Lock up the Wolves. Fue reemplazado por Chris Slade. Para ese tiempo, Johnson no estaba disponible, ya que estaba arreglando los asuntos de su divorcio. Así que, los hermanos Young escribieron todos los temas para su próximo álbum. Con The Razors Edge (1990), producido por Bruce Fairbairn, volvieron, casi diez años después de su primer gran éxito, a lo más alto de las listas de ventas (77 semanas en la lista de los 40 de Estados Unidos y 12 millones de copias vendidas hasta la actualidad), lanzados por el éxito Thunderstruck. La gira del nuevo álbum queda registrada en el álbum «Live!», la segunda placa doble en vivo de los australianos. En 1991, se presentaron en Moscú, Rusia, en lo que fue uno de los diez conciertos con más asistencia de la historia. En 1993, lanzaron el sencillo Big Gun para la banda sonora de la película El Último Gran Héroe (Last Action Hero), protagonizada por Arnold Schwarzenegger, quien también saldría en el videoclip. En el verano de 1994, vuelve Phil Rudd a la batería, tras su reencuentro con el grupo después de un concierto. Malcolm le perdonó y le pidió que volviera. En otoño de 1995, publicaron Ballbreaker, producido por Rick Rubin, el cual entró en las listas en el número 4 y vendió un millón de copias en los primeros seis meses con su sencillo Hard as a Rock. De este álbum también se extrajeron temas como «Cover You in Oil», «Hail Caesar» y «Boogie Man». Stiff Upper Lip le siguió a principios de 2001. Con ese álbum, volvieron a los sonidos que más les influenciaron durante su juventud. Sus éxitos como el sencillo «You Shook Me All Night Long», han sido interpretados por grandes personalidades del mundo de la música, como Céline Dion & Anastacia en el especial de «Divas Live Las Vegas». Curiosamente, la versión de «You Shook Me All Night Long» de Céline Dion fue elegida por la revista inglesa Total Guitar en el 2008 como la peor versión del mundo.​ En 2005, se lanzó el dualDisc de Back in Black y el DVD Family Jewels, una recopilación de sus vídeos desde 1973 hasta 1990. En 2006, se editó un libro con la historia de la banda, llamado «Let There Be Rock: The Story of AC/DC», escrito por la periodista Susan Masino. En octubre de 2007 salió a la venta el nuevo DVD, titulado «Plug Me in», en versión sencilla (dos DVD) y «de coleccionista» (tres DVD), con gran cantidad de material inédito y desconocido, incluso por los coleccionistas. En octubre de 2008 se publicó el álbum Black Ice. En 2009, la Recording Industry Association of America actualizó el récord de ventas del grupo, cambiando su cantidad de ventas de 69 millones a 71 millones, por lo que AC/DC se convirtió en la quinta banda en vender más discos en los Estados Unidos, vendiendo más discos que Madonna, Mariah Carey y Michael Jackson. El 10 de mayo de 2011, sale a la venta «AC/DC Live at River Plate», en el cual se incluyen los conciertos de Buenos Aires, Argentina, los días 2, 4 y 6 de diciembre de 2009. El 20 de noviembre de 2012, sale a la venta, el CD en vivo «AC/DC Live At River Plate». El disco es doble, con diferentes portadas, incluyendo todas las canciones tocadas en Buenos Aires, Argentina que se muestran en el DVD «Live at River Plate». También fue lanzado en una edición especial en formato LP.​ En diciembre de 2014 se publicó el álbum Rock or Bust. Es el primer álbum de la banda sin el miembro fundador y guitarrista Malcolm Young, quien dejó la banda ese mismo año por motivos de salud. El 16 de abril de 2014, en respuesta a informes anteriores de que la banda podría retirarse debido a que Malcolm Young estaba gravemente enfermo e incapaz de desempeñarse, Brian Johnson comentó que el resto del grupo iba a continuar y seguir adelante.​ AC/DC posteriormente anunció en un comunicado oficial sobre su página de Facebook que Malcolm Young estaría tomando un descanso de la banda debido a su mala salud. En junio, Johnson anunció que era «muy probable» que AC/DC regresaría nuevamente antes de acabar el 2014.​ En julio de 2014, AC/DC confirmó que han terminado de grabar su próximo álbum y que el sobrino de Malcolm, Stevie Young reemplazó a Malcolm en el estudio.​ El 23 de septiembre de 2014, bajo la dirección de Alberts confirmó que el miembro fundador Malcolm Young había salido oficialmente de la banda, debido a que se le diagnosticó demencia senil​ y su enfermedad es irreversible y reveló que su nuevo disco titulado Rock or Bust con once nuevas canciones sería lanzado el 28 de noviembre de 2014; este es el primer álbum de AC/DC sin Malcolm Young en las grabaciones. La banda también anunció planes para una gira mundial para promover el nuevo álbum con Malcolm y el sobrino de Angus, Stevie Young como reemplazo de Malcolm.​ El 9 de julio de 2015, Phil Rudd fue sentenciado con arresto domiciliario por amenazas de muerte a un exempleado y por posesión de metanfetamina y marihuana.​ En abril de 2016 el vocalista Brian Johnson deja de presentarse en vivo con AC/DC por motivos de riesgo a perder su sentido del oído. Su reemplazo temporal fue el vocalista de Guns N' Roses, Axl Rose, con quien están iniciando su gira Europea.​ El 8 de julio del mismo año, Cliff Williams, bajista de la banda desde 1977, anunciaba también que abandonaba el grupo después del final de la gira del último álbum, Rock or Bust, en septiembre de 2016.​ El 18 de noviembre del 2017 el exmiembro y fundador de AC/DC Malcolm Young fallece a los 64 años.​ Durante el mes de agosto del año 2018 fueron filtradas fotos de Angus, Brian, Stevie y Phil en Warehouse Studios de Vancouver, estudio donde fueron grabados los discos Stiff Upper Lip, Black Ice y Rock Or Bust, con lo cual, comenzaron los rumores de la grabación de un nuevo álbum y el regreso de Brian Johnson y Phil Rudd a la banda.​ El 1 de octubre de 2020 la banda confirma su regreso con la formación clásica y un nuevo disco: Power Up. El decimoséptimo trabajo de la banda australiana vio la luz el pasado 13 de noviembre de 2020. La banda ha vendido más de 200 millones de álbumes en todo el mundo, y de ellos aproximadamente 70 millones han sido vendidos en los Estados Unidos.​ Han sido sin lugar a dudas, la banda de hard rock más importante del período que va desde mediados de los años setenta hasta principios de los ochenta. Su disco Back in Black ha vendido más de 50 millones de unidades en el mundo, y más de 22 millones solo en los Estados Unidos,​​ de manera que es el quinto álbum de mayor venta de todos los tiempos en este país, y el segundo entre los álbumes más vendidos de toda la historia de la música popular a nivel mundial. La canción homónima, «Back in Black», se situó en el segundo puesto en el programa Las 100 más grandiosas canciones del Hard Rock del canal VH1. Este último los posicionó en el cuarto puesto en su lista «Los 100 mejores artistas de Hard Rock»,​ en tanto que MTV los situó en el séptimo puesto de «Las mejores bandas de Heavy Metal de todos los tiempos».​ Además la revista Q los colocó en el primer lugar en su lista «Los 50 grupos que debes ver antes de morir».​ Desde el 22 de marzo de 2000, AC/DC tiene una calle en Leganés (Madrid) llamada calle de AC/DC, a la inauguración asistieron Malcolm y Angus con gran expectación de público y seguidores.​​ El mismo día de la inauguración, la placa fue robada y repuesta a las dos horas. Tres días después, fue robada de nuevo. Fue incontable el número de veces que ha sido sustraída. Ante esa situación, el Ayuntamiento de Leganés decidió sacar las placas a la venta, para satisfacer las ansias de los admiradores. Esta anécdota fue expuesta en la película española Isi/Disi. Amor a lo bestia dirigida por Chema de la Peña y protagonizada por Santiago Segura y Florentino Fernández. Del mismo modo, en octubre de 2004, la ciudad de Melbourne también les rindió honores: la Corporación de Lane, fue renombrada ACDC Lane, en honor a la banda.​​ Sin embargo, la ciudad prohibió el uso del carácter de barra en nombres de calles, por lo que las cuatro letras se combinaron. La calle está cerca del Swanston Street, donde, en la parte trasera de un camión, la banda grabó uno de sus más grandes éxitos «It's a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock 'n' Roll)». Fueron incluidos en el Salón de la Fama del Rock and Roll el 10 de marzo de 2003.​​ Durante la ceremonia el grupo tocó 'Highway to Hell' y 'You Shook Me All Night Long' (con el vocalista de la banda Aerosmith, Steven Tyler).​ Ese mismo año, Malcolm y Angus recibieron el premio Ted Albert Award por su destacado servicio a la música australiana.Escucha este episodio completo y accede a todo el contenido exclusivo de Biblioteca Del Metal - (Recopilation).

Episode Fourteen of Frontier War Stories Boe Yarns with Dr Joseph Toscano author of Lest We Forget The Tunnerminnerwait & Maulboyheenner Saga, also national convenor of the Tunnerminnerwait & Maulboyheenner commemoration committee. At 8.00am on Tuesday the 20th of January 1842, over 5,000 people, a quarter of Victoria‟s white population, gathered at the outskirts of Melbourne crowding round the gallows erected on a small rise east of Swanston Street and north of La Trobe Street. The crowd, in a carnival mood, had come to see the public execution of Tunnerminnerwait and Maulboyheenner. Early in October 1841, Tunnerminnerwait, Maulboyheenner, Pyterruner, Truganini and Planobeena – 5 of 16 Tasmanian Aborigines who had been brought to Melbourne by Robinson in 1839 to „civilise‟ the Victorian „blacks‟, stole two guns and some ammunition from a settlers hut at Bass River. Over the next seven weeks, they robbed many stations in Dandenong and Mornington, wounding four white men and killing two sealers „Yankee‟ and William Cook. All five were captured by a party of police, settlers, soldiers and black trackers on the 20th of November 1841.

Early in October 1841, Tunnerminnerwait, Maulboyheenner, Pyterruner, Truganini and Planobeena – 5 of 16 Tasmanian Aborigines who had been brought to Melbourne by Robinson in 1839 to „civilise‟ the Victorian „blacks‟, stole two guns and some ammunition from a settlers hut at Bass River. Over the next seven weeks, they robbed many stations in Dandenong and Mornington, wounding four white men and killing two sealers „Yankee‟ and William Cook. All five were captured by a party of police, settlers, soldiers and black trackers on the 20th of November 1841. (Words taken from the Booklet "Lest We Forget The Tunnerminnerwait & Maulboyheenner Saga)

Jesus wept, the saying goes, and there he was, on his crucifix, laid out on the unceremonious bench, cast rigid into a plaster block, laid to waste on the Swanston Street spine.Forsaken by Anna Sublet To see a crucifix, abandoned at a tram stop, spoke to me of false hopes, salvation, loss and delusion. Who knows when or if they will be saved? And who, if anyone, will be their saviour? I watched a couple wrestle with their mess at that tram stop, testing the gristle and tendons of their connection. They were bound together, yet I could sense her straining at the edges. Her tattoo of a square within a square spoke to me of their enclosure, and the sense of inevitability about her journey felt like a heavy weight. And so, the crucifix lay abandoned. And we are forsaken. Anna Sublet is a freelance writer.  Her personal essays have been published in The Guardian.

Today is our National Day.  It has been for a very long time and it will continue to be for a very long time ahead.It has been endorsed by multiple governments and generations.  I’ve heard the old debate again, that it isn’t our national day and perhaps Anzac Day should be instead and that argument belongs to people with different barrows to push than this day and it’s significance.Anzac Day is an enormously important day, laden with much emotion and meaning and as such it doesn’t need to saddled with the added responsibility of the national day. Anzac Day is a day to look back, but Waitangi is a day to look forward as our original peoples and our newest arrivals get together and celebrate and pledge unity and progressAnd Waitangi Day is a good day and always has been. I was in Australia this year for Australia Day. There, three Melbourne Councils chose not to celebrate the day.  Some call it Invasion Day because it only commemorates the arrival of European settlers.  Our Day commemorates when Maori and the settlers chose to work together to forge a nation which is far more positive.  That said, I watched an Australia Day parade down Swanston Street in Melbourne which crackled with positivity and I lost count of all the different ethnic groups who marched in the culture’s clothes under a banner of one country.My Waitangi Days have been uniformly excellent.  I’ve spent it with family, or at festivals and once at the Treaty Grounds. I’ve seen no nastiness only positivity.So February 6 is the day that we chose to forge a nation in 1840.  Sure there are people on both sides that have problems with its implementation.  But fundamentally it is the soundest and best day to have as a national dayJacinda Ardern is spending 5 days in the North.  Today Dr Aroha Harris has written this.  “One hundred and seventy-seven years after the signing of Te Tiriti, I wish that a Prime Minister – any Prime Minister – taking the time to pause among Māori and other New Zealanders, in Māori territories, on Waitangi Day or any other day, wasn’t a thing, wasn’t a cause for opinion or comment or media attention.”It’s hard not to agree. The argy-bargy that is credited to Waitangi Day through the years came from one place.  Te Tii Marae. That marae had a special privilege granted to it purely down to its geographical location as the closest marae to the treaty grounds. That marae misused that privilege.  Not by protesting or bringing up concerns.  It was the mud-slinging, the sex toy chucking, the name calling and the jostling that did their chips.When Bill English refused to go North all he did was discredit the day.  Either he should have sucked it up and stood up to the ratbags or he should have just crossed Te Tii off the agenda.  That’s what Jacinda Ardern has done and well done too.  I’m amazed it took so long to figure out a logical answer.
