To coincide with the US release of his book "The Lives Of Brian", the Brian Johnson Tour History/Timeline is now online, covering concerts from his early band The Gobi Desert Kanoo Klub in 1967 to the last gig he did with Geordie a week before joining AC/DC in March 1980. Included are photos, reviews, advertisements from many of these concerts.
The legendary gig that Geordie performed on 23 April 1973 in Torquay is widely documented, Bon Scott's band Fang opened for Geordie and Brian met Bon that night. There are several unseen original press articles about that event in the timeline.
Another historic Geordie concert, which has never been documented, took place on 20 January 1973 at the Ballroom Baths in Scunthorpe, and Bon Scott's band Fraternity also supported the band that night. It's not known whether the two bands met and interacted, although quite likely given the low-key venue they played at.
Anyone who saw Brian during his pre-AC/DC days is welcomed to send info/documents/photos to complete this Tour History, which is a work in progress. Contact ac-dc.net.
