So, he's the nephew of Malcolm and Angus. Does that make him George Young's son? -- kingboyk 00:41, 16 January 2007 (UTC)
The album that he plays on was recorded in May. I would surmise the decision to have Stevie join the band as a permanent member was made before the album was made. Maybe say he joined the band and took over for his uncle, Malcolm, in early 2014, before the band went into the studio to record 'Rock or Bust". 67.224.16.233 ( talk) 13:38, 28 October 2014 (UTC) Jack B.

"Also, Starfighters took their name from an early band of AC/DC co-producer Harry Vanda." This is just a mere suggestion of the contributor. There is no footing to this claim, other than the fact that Harry Vanda played in a Dutch band called the Starfighters before his family moved to Australia (and that is exactly what used source says). There might or might not be a connection in there. I suggest to rephrase it as a curiosity, until a reliable source which supports such claim is found. Currentpeak ( talk) 11:19, 23 May 2015 (UTC)
