In 2011, AC/DC’s Brian Johnson was on The Howard Stern Show talking about the day he auditioned with AC/DC. This was the first time I’d heard the full story of what happened on that day. Did you know that immediately before auditioning for the lead singer role with AC/DC, he recorded a commercial jingle for Hoover vacuums? That’s just one of the fascinating stories Johnson tells Stern about the day he became AC/DC’s lead singer.
