[ROCK] You’re not alone if accepting Axl Rose as AC/DC’s front man proves difficult. Arguably the best of the metal-tinged classic rock bands still in the game, AC/DC always managed to avoid the hackneyed rock pitfalls of excess and deluded egomania that claimed GNR pretty much straight away—making the new arrangement almost unimaginable. Thing is, the reviews have been pretty good. While some have criticized Rose’s vocal style as being too shrill, others have praised his ability to hit notes long abandoned by Brian Johnson and have also cited noteworthy chemistry between Rose and guitarist Angus Young. Better catch ‘em now: apparently, bassist Cliff Williams is also gone at the end of this year. Sunday at First Niagara Center, 7:30pm.
