It now appears that the be-uniformed one is not dead, and actually played a gig with the Rolling Stones since his apparent demise. Impressive.
In all seriousness, we apologise for misinforming you, and equally, we're relieved that the great man's ticker is still ticking, and that he's still rocking.
If you have any questions as to why this story came about, or where it came from, please direct them to this email address.
In other not-dead news, these people were confirmed as also being alive and well today:
Paul Simon
Eddie Van Halen
Sharlene Spiteri
MC Hammer
Gary Coleman from hit TV show D'fferent Strokes

This story has now been taken offline.
Nobody has confirmed it to be true (several people in and around the band don't belive it to be true) and it's obviously a very delicate issue.
Re: This story has now been taken offline.
Angus amongst them I should imagine.

I wasn't around much today and only just read this story properly (and spent an hour trawling the web looking for some truth... to no avail).

This site sucks!
Re: Angus Young R.I.P.?
The headline contained a question mark. The story was never written saying it was certain.
We never intended to offend anyone.

Re: Angus Young R.I.P.?
it's bad enough when someone ODs and the press is split between "he's great for being a junkie" and "terrible example to our kids" etc, that could lead to loss of earnings, even just a big rumour if it's spread around enough
turns out he's alive, and while likes dressing as a schoolboy, isn't a peado, as for as DiS knows, as for endangered species? everyone likes to munch on a panda every now and then dont they? give him a break

Err, Gary Coleman died...

Angus' Age
Angus is actually 51...his birthday is 31st March 1955. It's usually a misconception that he was born in 1959, due to the record company in Aus wanting him to be a respectable 15 (schoolboy age) when AC/DC was formed in 1973. I would imagine he would find this whole journalistic fiasco amusing seeing as he leads a quiet normal life in the Netherlands.
