I don’t know what access Americans have to Brian Johnson’s TV interview show [Life On The Road](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt6740234/fullcredits?ref_=tt_ov_st_sm), but I haven’t seen it mentioned here, and if you can track it down, it’s well worth a watch as Brian Johnson sits down and talks about music, touring, band life, fast cars, and everything else that comes up with interviewees like Roger Daltrey, Lars Ulrich, Nick Mason and Robert Plant. Johnson is hugely engaging and just plain fun, he’s like the world’s happiest gargoyle as he cackles, wheezes, chortles and calls everyone “me soon” {you may need a Geordie-to-English decoder} through his interviews. He’s like the world’s coolest mad uncle, and the show is a delight.

Haven’t seen it here, but I enjoyed him when he was on _Top Gear_. Seems like a fun guy. I’d party with him.

I have been trying to get a bunch of renovating finished, so I am missing these due to working late at home. Last night was Nick Mason (Pink Floyd) and I was very pissed I couldn’t watch. But I did catch them hooning about in Nicks F150 - awesome.

Every second Bon Scott song was about life on the road.

ETA: I’d love to see the show, sounds like much fun, but don’t think that it’s already available anywhere in Germany…
