My new schoolmates threatened to kick the shit out of me when they heard my Scottish accent. I had one week to learn to speak like them if I wanted to remain intact. Course, I didn't take any notice. No-one railroads me, and it made me all the more determined to speak my own way. That's how I got my name, you know. The Bonny Scot, see?

Malcolm? He's the brain [of the band].

No matter how long you play rock and roll, songs might change just as long as the balls are there, the rock balls. And that's what's important to us

It keeps you fit - the alcohol, nasty women, sweat on stage, bad food - it's all very good for you.

I've never had a message for someone in my entire life. Except maybe to give out my room number.

I'm 33...before AC/DC I've played in a lot of bands in Australia. You're never too old to rock and roll.

I don't give a fuck what else on the rider, as long I've got Jack Daniels.
