It took the Highway to Hell album to get 24 hour a day Ted Nugent off my player. Pickin's were slim in the late '70s. Been a big fan ever since.
About their name, I seen an interview with Angus a long time ago where he was asked if the name AC/DC had bisexual overtones or if it stood for, "After Christ Devil Comes," and all the other speculations of the time about the meaning of their name. In typical laid back Angus fashion, (although he looked a little pissed about the stupidity of it all), he said, "Powah...it stands for powah." I guess that's where the lightning strike comes in.
I have since read that Angus' sister came up with band's name off of an old vacuum cleaner.
I do still believe what an old video tape of them says on the back, "The band you want on your side when World War III begins."
It was a sewing machine.
