Phil O'Keefe Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 Apparently it's dementia. http://preview.msn.com/en-us/music/news/ac-dcs-malcolm-young-left-band-due-to-dementia/ar-BB6Bkwg The good news is that his nephew is now playing rhythm guitar for the band... but it's still very sad to see a horrible disease like that sideline a musician at such a relatively young age.

Members riff ie Posted September 30, 2014 Members Share Posted September 30, 2014 Terribly saddening for us fans, I'll be thinking on this, hope we find more intuitive meds' for this soon, may Malcolm be as well as he can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Preacher Posted September 30, 2014 Members Share Posted September 30, 2014 A fantastic rhythm player and such a vital part of the AC/DC sound. People often seem to give Angus a lot of the credit for Malcolm's work though Angus is certainly a great performer in his own right. What a shame, that is indeed very sad. In the old HCEG tradition, mojo sent to Malcolm and his family. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
