And now for something completely different: AC/DC drummer charged with trying to hire hitman

From http://www.cnn.com/2014/11/05/world/asia/acdc-phil-rudd-hitman-charge/index.html

Phil Rudd, the drummer for legendary hard rock band AC/DC, has been charged with attempting to have two men killed.

The 60-year-old appeared in a New Zealand court Thursday afternoon facing a count of attempting to procure the murder of two men, said Bay of Plenty district's police spokesperson, Kim Perks.

He was also charged with threatening to kill, possession of methamphetamine and possession of cannabis, Perks said.

The names of the men he allegedly wanted killed and the name of the alleged potential hitman are suppressed, CNN affiliate TVNZ reported.

until we know the identity of the two men he wanted killed.

As I always say, the right people are never targeted for death by AC/DC drummers...
