Book Description
Live Wire gives us the Bon Scott we never knew. In this deeply personal and revealing portrait, we learn what it was like to be his friend, live and tour with him and be part of the close-knit world out of which one of the biggest bands of all time emerged. With Bon, there was always sex, drugs and rock'n'roll, but this deeply personal insight also shows the humour, intelligence and warmth of the man. From his early days with The Valentines, living in rundown apartments in Melbourne, to the legendary early years of AC/DC, this is the story of Bon, told by three of the people who knew him best.

[A] loving behind-the-scenes tribute. * Sunday Age * Their personal reflections...provide an intimate portrait of a wild rocker with a good heart, and help to fill the gaps in an important part of Australia's music history. This memoir provides a rare insight into the private life of a rock legend. * Newcastle Herald * A real and raw remembrance of the person behind rock's ultimate persona... The memoir is frank... Scott's softer side emerges. * The Weekend West *
About the Author
The Roadie: John D'Arcy is a legendary Australian roadie, though no one - except his mum and the police - has ever called him 'John'. To the Australian music community, he is Darcy or Darce. After being the roadie for Bon Scott's first major band, The Valentines, Darcy worked with many Australian bands, including Healing Force, and he worked on Leo Sayer's first Australian tour. As The Masters Apprentices' Jim Keays acknowledged, Darcy was there for 'the birth of it all [with a] wide grin, a joint in one hand, spanner in the other, as he got ready for another big night'.
