Ex-AC/DC Singer Claims He Got Kicked Out For Being Too Good With The Ladies

Dave Evans' singing is fine, considering his pants were so tight. He was better looking than than the other lads, but I suspect he knew it. Good thing they went back to t-shirts and jeans. That shit is gay! Bowie or Rod Stewart were genuine talents, poor Dave was just mediocre in that genre. We've all been mediocre. He might have done better as bit of a crooner for the youngins Leif Garret style. Were 13 year olds legal then?

Have u heard Dave's newest stuff? It's nothing like his old band "rabbit" or Evan the stuff he did with acdc. His newest stuff is awesome.

Can't say I have. I only vaguely remember this story from 4 or 5 years ago. Haven't heard of any of his bands or material. Surprising, as I always considered myself a bit of a music buff. He well and truly slipped into obscurity I think. Will be definitely checking it out. He actually sounds like a decent and honest guy in the interviews I've read. Thouroughly interesting accounts of Angus for example, first putting on the schoolboy outfit and transforming his stage presence from playing and nodding his head, to 'BANGING' and the Chuck Berry duck walk. Pretending to be 16 when he was 19 etc.. gold!

Defiantly buddy "sinner" and "judgement day" r his 2 best CDs in my opinion. There's footage on YouTube, if u get a chance check out his song "we don't dance to your song" and the title track from "judgement day" with the same name there totally awesome.

Hey check out "sold my soul to rock n roll" that's also an awesome track.

<quoted text> Wow! It's uncanny! His music sounds so much like early ac/dc.. yet some 30 odd years later.. will be 40 soon.. god help us! Lol. His influence as a founding member was definitely evident in the early Bon Scott era. But I can't help but wonder if be might have had more success if he changed the formula to suit his voice more than his successor. He has never left Bon Scott's shadow, which is a little sad for him, but you can tell he always respected him despite what happened, which is commendable. But showbiz is about making friends with your audience too I guess.
Great to hear classic ac/dc again. Which is essentially what it is. He deserves more credit, that's for sure.

Wow I took the time to listen to the songs you mentioned Struck... I would not mind AC/DC replacing Brian Johnson with Dave Evans. For what it's I like it a lot. He would be awesome with AC/DC. I means hes great, but him singing for AC/DC would actually be a perfect fit... Haha Truly good stuff.

<quoted text>Allrighty then...after doing a wee bit of research, I've discovered that Dave Evans was the original singer in AC/DC... a fact few Yanks realize. My question is...does anyone have a copy of the "Can I sit next to you, girl" single...with Evans doing the vocals??? I have never heard it...The version on the OZ "TNT" LP (and the American "High Voltage" LP) is definitely Bon Scott....

I have this single it's actually pretty decent but his later stuff in my opinion is a lot better

Struck and "one time rock singer" look to be the same person talking to themsleves.

Also we're just ppl that can use r own heads and listen to him and decide if we like him or not.
U on the other hand don't like him because other ppl don't that's the problem with today's society no one can think for themselves.
