“This new video is gonna ‘blow’ your mind (as well as other parts of your body),” laughs Johnny Martin of L.A. GUNS about the new video “Highway To Hell” by those feather boa-sportin’ gay rockers, GayC/DC.
Starring as the geek/nerd whose fatal car accident thrusts him into the Hades-headed tour bus, Martin joins dUg Pinnick (KING’s X) and John Bush (ARMORED SAINT/ex-ANTHRAX) in the rock star-studded tribute to the popular AC/DC anthem which is released today. The band will also hit the road this year.
“When GayC/DC decided to do the ‘Highway To Hell’ video, Brian [Welch, drummer] asked me if I would be interested in doing a cameo,” says Bush. “He said dUg and Johnny were also doing it, so I said, ‘Let’s do it!”
Directed by the multi-hyphenate Frank Meyer (director, journalist, musician in Streetwalkin’ Cheetahs and new guitarist for FEAR), the “Highway To Hell” video finds the band lovingly paying tribute to the Aussie band with their trademark irreverent eye.
