AC/DC fan site CrabsodyInBlue.com has uploaded a photo of the memorial to late AC/DC frontman Bon Scott, which was unveiled Saturday (May 6) in the small Scottish town of Kirriemuir. Check it out at this location. Special one-off t-shirts commemorating the event are still available via eBay at this location.

According to The Daily Record, about 500 AC/DC fans descended on Kirriemuir to remember Scott. Fans from as far afield as Hungary witnessed the unveiling of a plaque in honor of the heavy metal frontman, who died in 1980.

The plaque was unveiled by Kirriemuir community councillor Dave Milne, who commissioned it along with fellow AC/DC fan Gordon Burke.

Scott was born in the Angus town in 1946. He lived there until he was six, when his family emigrated to Australia. He joined AC/DC in 1974 and recorded five albums before dying of alcohol poisoning.
