Former AC/DC singer Brian Johnson has been through some serious hell with the fact that hearing loss due to years of not protecting his hearing at the race track caused him to have to step down from his post in the band. Fortunately however, there is a way that he may yet be able to return.
After a big social media campaign was put into motion, Stephen Ambrose of Asius Technologies reached out to Johnson to see if he could help him with the gizmos they are working on. Johnson so far has been thoroughly impressed.
In a statement made on Ambrose's Facebook page, Johnson sings Ambrose's praises saying:
“It works. It just totally works and you can't argue with that. I was really moved and amazed to be able to hear music again like I haven't heard for several years now. I can't wait for it to be miniturised so I can use it in every situation from normal communication, going out to noisy restaurants, to performing live music on stage.”
Personally I hope that Johnson can get what he needs from Asius. It would be great to see him finish his career on his own terms rather than from health reasons like what he has been dealing with. That said though, I'm still pretty stoked about Guns N' Roses front man Axl Rose temporarily taking over the post. He has done one hell of a great job and has even helped the band pull out some classics they haven't touched in YEARS. All that aside though, I think Johnson needs to be back in the band because it just wouldn't be right to permanently go on without him.
