Q: AC/DC is releasing their 15th studio album on October 20th and who's excited?

A: Pretty much everyone at the office here, and you (obviously).

 

This AC/DC giveaway is kicking off the Community Trivia Challenge where at random times, without warning, I'll post a question to a board and the first person to answer it correctly will receive a copy of whatever new release I'm asking about (could be music, could be dvd, could even be a game).  You won't know when the next trivia question will get posted, so check back often!

Sound easy?  Sound fun?  It is.  The full rules and regulations can be found here.  If you win, I'l accept your answer as the accepted solution and send you an email to the account that you registered to the community with to confirm and collect your mailing address.

What was the original singer's name and what was his job before joining the band?

Bon Scott

Postman Bartender and Truck packer

[Laura]

Congratulations WolfgangQC - you got it with "driver"! 

Bon Scott was AC/DC's driver before they discovered that he could sing and added him to the line up!

Everyone else:  there will be more Community Trivia Challenges coming up, so keep your eyes peeled!  You can also pre-order AC/DC Black Ice on futureshop.ca to snag your own copy.

The original singer of AC/DC is actually Dave Evans. He isn't as well known or as well loved as Bon Scott, but it's true. He played with Angus and his brother under the name of....you guessed it, AC/DC. I am the biggest AC/DC fan in the world and you can't pull one past me ya know !
