April 29, 2013, 11 years ago
According to The Courier, rare AC/DC items are set to go on display in another coup for the Gateway to the Glens Museum in Kirriemuir, Scotland
Collector Neil McDonald has loaned even more memorabilia celebrating Bon Scott’s place in rock history to the attraction in the town square,
It comes just in time for the annual Bon Fest, which will once again see AC/DC disciples converge on Angus to pay homage to one of Kirriemuir’s most famous sons.
Neil, who has the biggest collection of Scott memorabilia in the UK, told The Courier: “In addition to the permanent Bon Scott display, the museum has decided to use one additional case for Bon Fest this year.
“Consequently I have provided them with several more rare items of memorabilia - some of which I have never displayed before.“These include an extremely rare reel-to-reel tape from 1979 of tracks from the then forthcoming album Highway To Hell, which was produced at Basing Street Studios in London.
“To promote the continuing legacy of Bon Scott, there are also a number of Bon-related items which have been produced since he died in 1980.
“Unfortunately, I won’t be able to attend Bon Fest in person this year due to other commitments, but I am certain that both the existing exhibits and the new ones will generate considerable interest amongst Bon Scott and AC/DC fans alike.”
