Angus Young



image.jpeg    Angus McKinnon Young (born 31 March 1955) is a Scottish guitarist and songwriter of the Australian rock n' roll band, AC/DC. Known for his energetic performances, schoolboy-uniform stage outfits, and his popularization of Chuck Berry's duckwalk. He's the author of famous guitar riffs, like “Back in Black”, “Highway to Hell”, “Hells Bells”, among others.



    Angus Young, the youngest of eight children of William  and Margaret Young.. He dropped out of school at 15. He emigrated to Sydney, Australia, with his parents and brothers in 1963. He was 18 when he and his older brother, Malcolm, formed AC/DC in 1973. While many believe little, the name AC/DC was invented by Malcolm Young, who saw the initials on the sewing machine of her sister Margaret Young. AC/DC means: Alternative Current/Direct Current.



    Young prefers to keep his life private. He and his wife Ellen live in Kangaroo Point in the Sutherland Shire, in Sydney.



     In 2003, he and the other members of AC/DC were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In all lists of best guitarists in history, Angus Young appears in the top 10, is considered to be the best of all time riffer. His heavy riffs and extremaly fast solos made him one of best guitarists in history.



    His multiple intelligence and most developed is the musical.



    I chose Angus Young because he's the founder, guitarist and songwriter of my favorite band, AC/DC. I like his performances on stage and he plays very well.

Eric Clapton


He has brown eyes and brown hair. He’s short and he has 5 sons.
Eric Clapton is an English guitarist and sing- songwriter. He was born in Ripley, surrey, England on 30 March 1945. Clapton is the only three-time inductee to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame: once as solo artist, and separately as a member of the Yardbirds and Cream. Clapton has been referred to as one of the most important and influential guitarists of all time. Clapton ranked second in the Rolling Stone magazine’s list of the “100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time” and fourth in Gibson’s Top 50 Guitarists of All Time.


He has a brilliant musical talent, but when he started it was hard. Clapton had difficult to play the chords correctly, but his love for the blues made him continue and improve to be what he’s today.


In the mid-1960s, Clapton departed from the Yardbirds, his first band to play blues with John Mayall & the Bluesbrakers. In his one-year stay with Mayall, Clapton gained the nickname “Slowhand”. Immediately after leaving Mayall, Clapton formed Cream, a power trio with drummer Ginger Backer and bassist Jack Bruce.


For most of 1970s Clapton’s output bore the influence of the mellow style of J. J. Cale and the reggae of Bob Marley. Three of his most popular recordings were “Layla” in his solo career, “Crossroads” and “Sunshine of your love” with Cream. A recipient of seventeen Grammy Awards, in 2004 Clapton was awarded a CBE at Buckingham Palace for services to music. In 1998, Clapton, a recovering alcoholic and drug addict, founded the Crossroads Centre on Antigua, a medical facility for recovering substance abusers.

His mother’s name is Patricia Molly Clapton and his dad’s name is Edward Walter Fryer. Clapton received an acoustic Hoyer guitar made in Germany, for his thirteenth birthday, but the inexpressive steel-stringed instrument was difficult to play and he briefly lost interest. Two years later Clapton picked it up again and started playing consistently.

After leaving Hollyfield School in Surbition, in 1961, Clapton studied at Kingdom college of Art, but was dismissed at the end of the academic year because his focus remained on music rather than art.

I choose Clapton because I love guitars and he plays very well.

Misha Collins


Misha Collins is an actor, who was born in 1974, on August 20, in Boston, Massachusetts. He is tall and has black hair and green eyes.
He studied at Northfield Mount Hermon School and the University of Chicago.
In 1998, he started to act and he is best known for his character, the angel Castiel, on the CW serie Supernatural. Castiel is a very important character and, like the other angels, he doesn’t show his emotions, but Misha is a very funny and smart person.
He married Victoria Vantoch in 2002 and they had two children together.
Collins’ strongest intelligence is kinaesthetic, for being an actor, and linguistic, because he is also a poet whom published “Baby Pants” and “Old Bones”.
I chose him because I think he is a great actor, Supernatural is my favorite TV serie and I like his character very much.
