Malcolm Young, guitarist and co-founder of AC/DC, died Saturday at the age of 64. Young had been suffering with dementia for the past three years, an illness that forced his retirement from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame-inducted band he founded with his brother Angus Young in 1973.

"Today it is with deep heartfelt sadness that AC/DC has to announce the passing of Malcolm Young," AC/DC wrote in a statement.

"Malcolm, along with Angus, was the founder and creator of AC/DC. With enormous dedication and commitment he was the driving force behind the band. As a guitarist, songwriter and visionary he was a perfectionist and a unique man. He always stuck to his guns and did and said exactly what he wanted. He took great pride in all that he endeavored. His loyalty to the fans was unsurpassed."

He definitely paid his dues, playing in a rocking band.
 
Love me some AC/DC. Every time I hear a song, I just want to be in my backyard BBQing and drinking beers.

Highway to hell, or a long way to the top?

I wonder what his mistress will get for Christmas, now.

I forgot that he had dementia.

Yeah, I forgot what we were talking about. J/K, dementia is no joke. Man, that is young though.
