AC/DC Abruzzo conquer Mt. Gran Sasso (The Big Stone)
No more AC/DC concerts. No more trips around the world. No more exotic food. No more exotic girls. No more challenges. No more adrenaline... Despite the making of the Black Ice photo book, life was getting a bit boring after the end of the Black Ice World Tour. So the boys in AC/DC Abruzzo decided to meet again for another enterprise. To conquer the highest peak of the Gran Sasso Mountain and the Apennines, the Corno Grande (The Big Horn) 2912 m above sea level.
On August 19, Matteo, Stefano, Andrea, Alessandra and Marco, after spending the night in tents near Campo Imperatore, started climbing the last part of the "Little Tibet of Abruzzo" at 2 am and managed to reach the peak at 6 am. Just in time to witness the enchanting sunrise...
What now?

THE FOUNDING PRINCIPLES OF AC/DC ABRUZZO
"I love Italian food" - Brian Johnson
But how did we make it possible? We already told you some of our secrets... But there's more... It was during the first encounter with Brian Johnson in Stockholm that we had the inspiration about our ambitious project. In fact Brian gave us a real lesson on how to build the rockstar lifestyle laying down the founding principles of AC/DC Abruzzo.
During the two hours we spent with him and Cliff, Brian explained everything we had to know about SEX, FOOD (MANGIARE) and ROCK'N'ROLL. In the following 15 months we applied his teachings (together with those of the Kosp and KK and other mentors). And it was a glorious time...
So thank you Brian and thank you AC/DC!
This abridged version of Brian Johnson's lecture and explanatory video is endorsed by KK and the Kosp and his assistants and it is considered as a valuable educational instrument for those about to rock around the world with AC/DC

BRIAN'S MESSAGE + UPDATE ON THE PHOTO BOOK
Tomorrow, 15 August, it's the second anniversary of AC/DC's comeback after 5 years of waiting. Exactly 2 years ago the whole band met in London for the video shoot of the Rock'n'Roll Train video with a few lucky fans from all over the world. We were there. And that was just the first step of an incredibly long trek around the world with AC/DC. And the beginning of our blog...
To celebrate this anniversary tomorrow we will post a special video message from Brian to our blog readers from our first meeting with him, which definitely inspired all our adventures around the world in the last two years. "The Founding Principles of AC/DC Abruzzo". See you tomorrow!
UPDATE OF AC/DC ABRUZZO PHOTO BOOK
Since we had so many exclusive photos and material from the Black Ice tour we decided to opt for a bigger format and make a real deluxe limited edition coffee table book (30cmx25cm), similar to the huge BackTracks book. The AC/DC Abruzzo Photo Book will be ready in September and started to be delivered in October.
You can preorder your copy for €65+ S/H by using the PAYPAL button below or by contacting us via email to this address for other methods of payment.

AC/DC and THE INFINITE POWER OF ROCK'N'ROLL
PERTH, Australia March 9, 2010
AC/DC Abruzzo: Hi Angus, we just wanted to thank you for this amazing tour. It's been fantastic!
Angus Young: Thanks. You're Abruzzo, aren't you? (smiling)
AC/DC Abruzzo: ... :O
This was the last meeting with Angus in Australia. We also met him in Europe in 2009 and 2010, but in Perth for some reason, it was something special. In Australia you can feel the presence of Bon and the true essence of AC/DC more then anywhere else... It was one of those unforgettable moments of this tour that we'll treasure forever.
Unforgettable. Just like when we met our good friend Yann from France outside the San Mames stadium in Bilbao on June 28 before the show. He explained to us how AC/DC Abruzzo had been important for all those hard core fans who had managed to follow the tour thanks to us. He showed us he was literally having goosebumps thinking of what we had accomplished on behalf of the fan community, in the name of AC/DC and Rock'n'Roll...
When we think about moments like these, about Angus' smile or Yann's grateful look, about all the wonderful memories we've gathered during the tour and about all the support messages we've received from all over the world in the last 20 months, we get the confirmation that this was the right thing to do in this moment of our lives.
And we also got some tears in our eyes when we realized that the dream from the London Hammersmith show in 2003 finally came true...
Thank you AC/DC!
