ANY ONE BEEN TO AN AC/DC CONCERT?

[delayjf]

And if so, was it like this? I've been to my share of concerts, but I've never seen an audience react like the Argentinians in this video, check out 1:37 of this video Everyone on the floor is jumping up and down in unison, kinda like a rock and roll version of the wave. These guys are into it,

I just heard they are going on tour next year. That would be a blast.

Been 8 times, and would/will go again. A true rock and roll experience. The band is there to put on their show, and the crowd is there to give them energy. The give and take between the crowd and the band becomes what you are seeing.

Will they be going on tour with Brian Johnson as the singer. He was sacked in the middle of their last tour due to issues with hearing loss/tinitus. Axle Rose finished the tour for the band. It wouldn't be the same without either Malcolm Young and Brian Johnson on the stage.

I have been to a couple. My take is that it was good but not special. I dont mean that in any negative but compared to some others it was more in the middle from a concert experience.

And in Argentina (and especially Brazil) they tend to have very lively and large crowds.

Best Live performance I ever attended was RUSH...nothing compares to their light show and how it syncs with their music.

This. I know they put on a great concert, see their show Rock Goes to College in late 70s UK, wild.

But S Americans really go nuts. I've seen shows with Pearl Jam, Radiohead and others where everyone jumps around like nuts.

Brian was photoed with the band in Vancouver nearly a couple years ago now when the rumors began. Cliff, who retired at the end of the last tour, was also spotted. Rumors have suggested they're both back.

I saw them open up for Kiss in 1977. Both bands had a sold out Freedom Hall rocking hard. Kiss was at the top of their game. Angus Young had a wireless guitar and Bon Scott carried him around on his shoulders all through the floor seats during the closing song guitar solo.

Here's what they played:

Let There Be Rock
Problem Child
Hell Ain't a Bad Place to Be
Whole Lotta Rosie
High Voltage
The Jack
Rocker

Whole Lotta Rosie is still one of my favorite songs, and I remember loving The Jack, a slower, bluesy number.

It's crazy to think but both bands could still fill large arenas today.

[BuddyOscar]

Not both bands. We got our notice of the kiss “final” tour being rescheduled today. We will take refunds because even before covid the last time I checked well more than half the tickets had not been sold. In a 6,000 seat “arena”.

Gotcha, I guess the allure of the glam has finally wore off. They had a helluva run though.

[porchy44]

I have been to two concerts. I used cotton or ear plugs on both. They were still loud. Iconic band though.

For those interested.

Saw them open for Van Halen in 1979 at the Seattle Center Arena, then saw them headline on the Back In Black tour in 1981 at the Seattle Center Coliseum.

They were cool. Haven't seen them since. Have most of their stuff, but will probably never go out of my way to see them, even if they come back around this way again.

These old rock bands are starting to turn me off, their shows anyway. I've seen the Stones so many times I'm not sure how many, and when they came through here in 2006, it was simply a band going through the motions, cashing their pay check. I've been feeling that way about most of them since.

Edit: Just saw a poster mention they were with Nugent in Cleveland in 1979. Come to think of it, that may have been who they opened for here in 79 also. Memories are getting fuzzy. Hell, the moment was fuzzy, if you know what I mean.

[jay68802]

Please explain a "fuzzy moment".:lol:
