Nope.
You can say what you want about Axl, but this guy doesn't have the power or range to properly cover the full Ac/Dc catalog. His voice has no resemblance to the power of the Brian Johnson era. Sure Axl has been a jerk in the past, but he has proven (on the last tour) that he can and will do the songs justice.

I agree with Troublezone, and I can't stand Axl Rose lol I've heard a couple YouTube songs with Axl singing, and I still say AC/DC should never release an album with Axl singing, but his voice did the songs justice. That guy above sounds really weak imo, and I'd probably fall asleep before the show ended if he was fronting them.

Georg Dolivo of Rhino Bucket.
I think he could do the Bon-era or the Brian-era.

AS much as I dislike Axl (and really like Unc. Sax.) I don't feel that he did a bad job in the live clips I saw. I definitely don't want an AC/DC album with Axl on vocals; but if they choose to tour with him again, it's not the worst choice in the world. My heart wanted Marc Storace, but I know Axl had the star power to make an epic combo.

They should have gotten someone younger anyway. So they can continue forever.

Yeah I was pleasantly surprised by the clips with Axl; I thought it would sound like a train wreck.

I would agree with this choice. Plus Georg plays guitar as well. So that would be an extra bonus.

I had to eat some crow because I felt that Axl did an excellent job, especially the Bon Scott era tunes which are hard to capture its spirit

Other people I've talked to say they believe Axl was chosen for the star power. Let's face it; most vocalists mentioned here mostly play at dive bars and stuff. As cool as it would be to hire someone more obscure, I can see why people would be inclined to believe they should have gone with a superstar.

The guy they auditioned: Darren Caperna of the cover band Back in Black. I hear he can also do a mean Bon Scott.

Marc Storace - would be cool ! Having Axl - is like Hiring Dee Snyder - it’s too entertaining and curious. Truthfully AC/DC disappoints me with every release. Sure, they usually have 2-3 really good songs - 2 more that are okay - The rest are all just listenable - at a low level. For decades. And I’m a fan of theirs - lol - since 1977.
