Jim Breuer’s Hilarious AC/DC Parody Led to a Real-Life Jam Session With Brian Johnson
Jim Breuer has long been known for his comedy, but fans of both humor and hard rock know he brings something extra to the stage: an uncanny ability to impersonate rock legends. One of his most beloved routines is his heavy-metal twist on the children’s classic “Hokey Pokey,” transformed into a loud, electrifying parody titled “AC/‘Hokey DC’s Pokey.’” In it, Breuer channels Brian Johnson’s unmistakable shrieking vocals and wild stage movements, merging childhood nostalgia with full-throttle rock energy.
The bit exploded online, gaining hundreds of thousands of views and earning applause not just from comedy fans, but from devoted AC/DC listeners who appreciated Breuer’s enthusiasm and accuracy. He wasn’t mocking the band — he was celebrating them. His genuine love for rock ‘n’ roll shined through every exaggerated note and headbang.
When Comedy Meets Rock Royalty
The parody soon reached the ears of Brian Johnson himself — and instead of taking offense, the AC/DC frontman was delighted. What began as a comedic tribute quickly evolved into something far more surreal: a full-blown collaboration between Breuer and Johnson.
The two eventually met in a recording studio, where comedy and rock collided in the most unforgettable way. Together, they performed a wild, thrilling rendition of AC/DC’s “Rock and Roll Ain’t Noise Pollution.” Johnson’s trademark raw vocals merged effortlessly with Breuer’s playful, hyper-charged energy, creating a performance that fans of both worlds still talk about.
It wasn’t a staged gimmick — it was real chemistry. Johnson leaned into Breuer’s antics with laughter and enthusiasm, while Breuer treated the moment with gratitude and deep respect. For fans, the joy on both men’s faces said it all: this was a dream collaboration born from pure love of rock music.
A Tribute That Hit All the Right Notes
Speaking with Rolling Stone, Breuer described the experience as “surreal,” noting how remarkable it felt to go from imitating Brian Johnson in comedy clubs to sharing a microphone with him in the studio. He praised Johnson’s talent, humility, and humor, calling the rock legend one of the warmest and funniest people he had ever met.
Their jam session wasn’t rehearsed or polished. It was spontaneous, raw, and overflowing with personality — the perfect blend of comedy and rock. Fans adored it not only for the music, but for the friendship and genuine admiration on display.
Many viewers said the best part was watching Brian Johnson fully embrace the chaos with a grin, proving he is not only a legendary rocker but also someone who knows how to have fun. Meanwhile, Breuer showed that his devotion to rock music is authentic — not just a comedic bit, but a true passion.
Fans React to the Unlikely Duo
