Although AC/DC considered disbanding, they felt that Bon Scott would have wanted them to keep playing music. Brian Johnson took over as lead singer, and he continues to be the lead singer of AC/DC to this day.

About Pop/Rock Music
One of the most popular forms of music today is Pop/Rock. Also called Rock 'n' Roll or Pop, Rock music features catchy beats, memorable lyrics and extensive use of the guitar. Rock music began in the late 1940's, and has roots in the Blues and Country music. Characterized by a fast beat that is easy to dance to, Rock music often uses the electric guitar, drums, keyboard, synthesizers, and other instruments. Pop/Rock music is so popular because it appeals to the widest range of people. AC/DC tickets sell quickly since many people love AC/DC concerts. Whenever you turn on the radio, you are likely to hear a Pop/Rock song that you can't get out of your head.
In the 1950's, Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis, Eddie Cochran and other stars played a type of music called Rockabilly. Some people think that Rockabilly is the purest form of Rock 'n' Roll. It eventually led to the type of music that artists like AC/DC play today. Now you can find discount AC/DC tickets on TicketNetwork to hear the latest Pop/Rock sounds. Some people still listen to Rockabilly today, as it mixes the Blues, Country, wild emotion and a powerful rhythm and beat. One summer night in 1954 in Memphis, while Elvis was recording a song at Sun Records, he and his group started fooling around, jumping and dancing while playing the music. Rockabilly was born.
Jerry Lee Lewis only had two formal piano lessons, but he went on to become an icon of Rock 'n' Roll. With his songs "Great Balls of Fire" and "Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On", he pioneered piano rock. Jerry Lee Lewis was also famous for energetic performances that included jumping up and kicking away his piano bench, and sitting and standing on his piano. This may be normal for Rock musicians today, but in the 1950's it was shocking and Jerry Lee Lewis was one of the first stars to act like this on stage. Fans with AC/DC tickets will also experience an energetic, exhilarating concert.
Elvis Presley, Jerry Lee Lewis, and Cliff Richard were among the first Pop/Rock stars influencing future artists such as AC/DC in many ways. Elvis played an important part in the history of Rock.
