FORMER AC/DC SINGER FIRES OFF AT BOOK AUTHOR

AC/DC's original frontman has taken aim at the author of the band's lauded biography HIGHWAY TO HELL over the way he has been written out of the group.

Dave Evans has dismissed Clinton Walker's account of his departure from the Aussie rock band as "bulls**t", telling the Sydney Morning Herald newspaper he "wanted to strangle" the writer when the book first came out.

In the book, Walker attacks Evans, calling him "a shameless exhibitionist", and he reports guitarist Angus Young once threw Evans off a concert stage because he was too drunk to perform.

Angry Evans rants, "It's all bulls**t, a pack of lies. Can you imagine anyone throwing me, the king of all badasses, off the stage?"

The former AC/DC singer, who insists Walker never asked him for an interview, adds, "It was just a case of clashing personalities. We all had these young egos and we were like rams butting heads. In retrospect, I suppose I should have just shut up, but I was a strong personality."
