"Rockers and Rollers: A Full Throttle Memoir" by Brian Johnson, available for the first time in the US on May 24th. Containing new, never before published material, make sure to pre-order your copy today!
By night, Brian Johnson sings in the biggest rock 'n' roll band on the planet. But by day, AC/DC's frontman drives balls to the wall. Cars and rock 'n' roll-they were made for each other."Rockers and Rollers" is a tribute to Brian’s obsession with four wheels. By turns surprising, poignant, funny, and maybe a little bit bawdy, these are the stories of a man who drives as hard as he rocks.
Brian will be making in store appearances signing copies of his new book at
