birthday

May I have your attention please.  Someone was asleep at the switch yesterday, and because of this, you were not given the opportunity to "Party like it's 1985" (the "Prince" song?).

Today, AC/DC guitarist Angus Young turns 56 years old.  The rocker has spent 41 of his years in the band, so what is the secret to their longevity?  He told us it’s consistency.
