Honoring The Gods Of Rock

Scottish Lawmaker Salutes AC/DC Just think: There was a time the lads in heavy-metal band AC/DC were accused of being Satan's spawn by parents across the English-speaking world. Christine Grahame, a member of the Scottish Parliament, has filed a parliamentary motion titled AC/DC, We Salute You, which calls for official acknowledgment of the group's achievements. Though they founded AC/DC in Australia, Angus and Malcolm Young were born in the Scottish city of Glasgow, and former singer Bon Scott was born in Kirriemuir.) I think they have long deserved official recognition from their homeland for their major musical contribution, Grahame said.
