i believe mac/dc and the skyhooks were rival bands for awhile -ishmaelblues

They were very different bands, from different cities. In the same way as there was a stones-beatles rivalry (true only in the media), there might have been something similar. But not that I remember. AC-DC carried a bit of history from the Easybeats, and Skyhooks were a little more like Split Enz, kind of nutty University intellectuals having a good time.Trishm 02:21, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
