Joel O’Keeffe: “I Want To Learn Guitar Again” | Airbourne Interview

Airbourne’s Joel O’Keeffe joins me for one of the most enjoyable guitar chats I’ve had in a while! We get into how Joel first learned guitar, playing AC/DC for hours at a time, isolating Malcolm and Angus Young’s guitar parts, learning Iron Man, writing riffs and why even after six Airbourne albums he says he wants to “learn guitar again.”

Joel also shares a brilliant Keith Richards story, the reality of climbing a PA in front of 40,000 people, the advice Lemmy gave Airbourne about never changing for anyone, and the hilarious story of discovering a kid on YouTube who had actually worked out a better way of playing Joel’s own riff! Lots of laughs in this one, but also some genuinely brilliant advice for anyone who loves playing guitar and rock 'n' roll.
