Death

Bon Scott's grave.

On February 19, 1980, Bon Scott, who was only 33 at the time, passed out after a night of heavy drinking in a London club called MusicMachine (hosted at the Camden Palace, currently known as the KOKO). He was left to sleep in a car owned by an acquaintance named Alistair Kinnear, at 67 Overhill Road in East Dulwich, South London^[13]. The following afternoon, Kinnear found Scott lifeless, and alerted the authorities. Scott was rushed to King's College Hospital in Camberwell, where he was pronounced dead on arrival. Although common folklore claims that ingestion of vomit or drugs were the cause of Scott's death, the official cause was listed as "acute alcohol poisoning" and "death by misadventure."^[14] Scott was cremated and his ashes were interred by his family in Fremantle, the area to which they had immigrated when he was a child.^[15] Image File history File linksMetadata Download high resolution version (2048x1362, 658 KB) Summary Photo taken (18th Feb 2006) and supplied by Nachoman-au. ...
