Angus Young, Brian Johnson, Cliff Williams, Phil Rudd, and other members of the AC/DC funeral were in attendance for Malcolm Young’s funeral on Tuesday in Sydney.
Eulogies were read by family member Bradley Horsburgh and David Albert, who described Young as a “quiet, humble and understated man,” according to ABC.
Monsignor Tony Doherty, who ran the service, told those in attendance: “Once in a while and only once in a while, someone comes along who truly understands, who has a gift to transfer all those needs and emotions into music. This genius of music and song had been cruelly struck silent.”
