AC/DC: More Information Released About Upcoming BON SCOTT Memorial Stone

March 13, 2006

More details have been released about the upcoming unveiling of the memorial stone to late AC/DC frontman Bon Scott, which is set to take place May 6 in Kirriemuir, Scotland.

The following information was kindly provided by Kirriemuir museum on behalf of one of the organizers, Dave Milne:

"The stone, which is a 3' x 2' Caithness slab, will be unveiled at 1:00 p.m. in Cumberland Close (across the road from the museum). Open to all.

12 - 1pm, Bellie's Bar, band, "Sonnet 65" will perform.(beside Cumberland Close).
2 - 5pm, Town Hall, Kirriemuir, young bands from Kirriemuir will perform.
7 - 11.30pm, Town Hall, Kirriemuir, local Angus bands will perform.

"Dave Milne has explained that arrangements for these events have still to be finalized, so it is possible that some changes will be made. Unfortunately, I don't think AB/CD or any other tribute band will be playing at the concerts, although the organisers hope to have some catering during the evening concert.

"There are to be no tickets for the concerts held in the Town Hall — people have just to pay at the door.

"To coincide with the unveiling of the stone, Kirriemuir museum have a very small display, using only items which belong to the museum this time. As we already had other exhibitions planned for this year before we were aware of the stone etc., it just wouldn't have been possible to do another 'Bon' exhibition on the scale of last year's. However, for anyone wishing to pop in and see some Bon-related memorabilia, I think it will be interesting, especially as the museum is situated directly opposite Cumberland Close, where the stone will be situated. The display will run from Saturday 6th — Saturday 13th May."
