I will try and post the next year of the story daily, but it may end up being every few days.

1973


November 73
Malcolm Young forms a band in Sydney, Australia with Colin Burgess (Drums, ex-Masters Apprentices) and Larry Van Kriedt (Bass). Singer Dave Evans (ex-Velvet Underground after Malcolm left that same band) answers an advertisement placed in the Sunday Morning Herald and gets the gig. Angus Young, who just disbanded Kentuckee, is later brought in as the second lead guitarist at Malcolm’s request.


December 73
The band rehearses in Newtown, Australia and adopts the name AC/DC at the suggestion of Angus and Malcolm’s sister Margaret, who saw the sign on a sewing machine.

31: First concert on New Year’s Eve at Chequers in Sydney, Australia. The band’s repertoire consisted mainly of covers of Chuck Berry, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and Free rock & roll standards and some original material such as the unrecorded "The Old Bay Road" and "Midnight Rock". They all wore the obligatory jeans and t-shirts, including Angus.
