Speaking with USA Today ahead of the U.S. leg of the band's Power Up Tour, Johnson opened up about a habit he kept up for years without even realizing it: he almost never smiled onstage. "I never used to smile or anything," he admitted, explaining that he felt weighed down for most of his career by the pressure of being in what he once thought of as "a big rock and roll band."
Johnson says that somewhere along the way, the pressure to perform a certain image just stopped mattering to him. He and guitarist Angus Young, 71, now trade grins and glances onstage, feeding off each other's energy in ways Johnson says never used to happen earlier in the band's career. He credits the shift partly to simply not caring as much anymore about how he's perceived, and partly to trusting that after 46 years together, he and his bandmates can read each other well enough to improvise in real time.
At an age when he once assumed he'd have long since stopped touring, Johnson says he's more present in the moment than ever, and finally letting the fun show on his face instead of hiding behind an old idea of what a rock frontman was supposed to look like.
