AC/DC Backing Bid For Bon Scott Statue In Kirriemuir
May 15, 2013, 11 years ago
At the 2013 Bonfest in Kirriemuir, Scotland, the funding campaign for the Bon Scott statue to be erected in Bon's hometown was started. By June 5th, a total of 50,000 pounds must be collected in order to make this effort possible.
The project was initiated by DD8 Music, a non-profit organization to erect a statue of Bon in his home town of Kirriemuir. The statue has the full support of all of the local community counselors and has been offered support by several local businesses.
DD8 Music has commissioned renowned sculptor John McKenna to produce a work of art that exemplifies Bon's spirit and his Scottish roots. John is an incredible artist who has produced some truly magnificent work over the years. You can see some of his fantastic work at his website.
Now, the AC/DC community is being invited to help fund the statue project. For more information and to pledge to contribute a donation toward the Bon Scott statue project visit Facebook.
