AC/DC's MALCOLM YOUNG: Why We Picked STEVEN TYLER To Induct Us -
AC/DC specifically asked for AEROSMITH's Steven Tyler to induct them
into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame on Monday (March 10) because he and
AEROSMITH were instrumental in helping AC/DC to break into the United
States in the mid-'70s.
"When we thought back about when we, we first came to the, the States,
it, it sort of just sprung to mind straightaway — 'Well, Steven
Tyler...' — because I think we were doing, sort of doing club dates and
things like that in the States, and they heard we were in the country
and they got us put on as support act for 'em," AC/DC guitarist Malcolm
Young recalled. "And when he would do interviews, inevitably he would
talk about us guys, too. When we looked back, we thought, 'He's the man
that really helped the band,' you know, so we're grateful for that.
"What really sealed it was when we did a gig with...remember that band
FOREIGNER, who had had the big hit record, and we were put on that show?
And it was great for us--it was a big stadium. AEROSMITH were on, too.
FOREIGNER didn't want us on there for one reason or another, and it was
Steven Tyler that said, 'Well, if you're gonna drop them, we're not
playing either,' and I thought that was brilliant."
The Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame induction ceremony takes place at the
Waldorf Astoria hotel in New York City. In addition, AC/DC will play a
free show in the city on Tuesday (March 11) at the Roseland Ballroom.
An edited version of the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame induction ceremony
will air March 16 on VH1
