Didn't he get a Silver Clef already back in 1992 with DS, at Knebworth?
Brian Johnson's getting one, too! I didn't know AC/DC was used in music therapy :)

It's a lunch from 11.30 to 16.30 at the Grosvenor and a closed event bookable only for business people.
Hopefully we'll get to see some pics.

I am honoured to have been chosen to receive the Icon Award at this year’s O2 Silver Clefs. It’s a privilege to support an event that is directly part of such important music therapy work. One of the best parts of being an artist is meeting people who have been touched by your music. I think we have all appreciated the power of music in our own lives from time to time. Nordoff and Robbins believes in sharing the value of music with everyone who needs it – that’s why I’m a long-time supporter and will continue to help raise funds so Nordoff and Robbins’ music therapists can continue their vital work.

He does look great, but it also helps that he's not dressed like a bum.

Amen to that. I do wonder if the decision to stop touring was a weight off his mind and gave him the energy he needed for some of the productivity we are currently seeing.

I think so too. The decision to stop touring has perhaps given him peace of mind, which gives him a lot of strength for new projects.
At least that's how I could imagine it.
