@@lalnunsangalalnunsanga1695i actually love how your comment technically makes zero fucking sense from a grammatical perspective but we can all understand it anyway. Beautiful!
Live they are as good (better) then in the studio. What me always amazed, the energy. AC-DC is pure energy. No other band push so much energy then them. Also they are so tight. The tightest band of all time. And they are really great - even now. For sure, Brian was the very best replacement, but even after 44 years, there is only ONE Bon Scott. Nobody reaches him, only one is a little bit "better" - Freddie. But next to him, no one can hold Bons Water.
That was a live concert with 87,000 people. The crowd was so in sync that it registered as a 5.4 earthquake. All of these guys are in their 70s now. Angus Young was 58 years old when this was recorded.
You have not experienced live music until you join in with tens of thousands of people chanting this song and then screaming yourself hoarse cheering the rest of the way. AC/DC is my ALL-TIME FAVOURITE BAND, and has been since i first heard THIS SONG when it was still considered NEW!! This band's music has become just as mainstream as the Beatles and Elvis... You'd be hard-pressed to find a rock radio station that doesn't play at least TWO of their songs in one day! Keep going, bro! You want an old-school classic of theirs? Check out "It's a Long Way to the Top (If You Wanna Rock and Roll)".
To me... all the modern shows with holograms and flying artists or whatever... is nothing compared to skilled musicians playing live on a stage. Just the energy from them jamming together brings the music to life.
You have to watch that whole Live at River Plate concert. Band members were in their 50s at the time, and it's one of the best concert performances ever. And the audience is nuts, no doubt best fans ever!
AC/DC sounds the same in concert as they do in the studio. They are a band like many from the 70s and 80s that can actually sing and play. No auto tune or nothing to help them sound better. They are talented performers and put on a great show. You can tell they love doing it too.
I'm 65 years old and you haven't seen AC/DC in concert you haven't really seen rock and roll and they just one of the bands of that era. The '70s '80s and early '90s that's me! SOUTHERN ROCK AND ROLL! As you would say today, that's my jam. You do HELL'S BELLS and BACK IN BLACK and I'm here to stay LOL I used to coach youth football. We would play HELLS BELLS in the locker room before every game and I would tell them to get lost in the song. We were hell on the field. I'm rolling thunder, pouring rain I'm coming on like a hurricane My lightning's flashing across the sky You're only young, but you're gonna die I won't take no prisoners, won't spare no lives. Needless to say, we left the locker room fired up
I saw their last show with Bon. St John's Arena. It was so loud...the people jumping up and down...we created structural damage to the balcony preventing any other band from using it for seats. I was front and center...crushed for the entire concert. Wouldn't have had it any other way.
I'd like to report that I saw them at Wembley 3 weeks ago with 80,000 others and Brian (76) screamed for 2 hours with a smile on his face the whole time and Angus(69) played and danced around the stage like kid with huge hair! About 10,000 had red horns lol. Best time of our lives!
Was there with my 17-year-old son. His first ACDC concert. My 5th. We both had red horns! Right at the front, next to Brian. I have even more respect for them now, and that says something. For the sad people who said they were too old, well, you were wrong! They can still put on one hell of a show! Amazing to share this with my son. Absolute legend of a band! And pretty Reckless was great too. Taylor Momsen has such a great voice.
Dude, your FACE! You looked so shocked it made me giggle. 🥰 😂That’s why your subscribers in their 50’s and 60’s are always talking about the fact we were spoiled for choice back in the day, with real musicians and no auto tune-just amazing talent that we lived and breathed. We spent so much time at live shows in the 70’s, 80’s and 90’s it was practically a way of life. So happy you finally saw this video because that crowd was rocking! I wish I had been at that show too! AC/DC used to get me going every morning in the late 80’s. Works great for the gym too! 🔥🤟🏼
Bud, I wish I could take you back to the 80s. Arena rock/metal was like this. Ish being passed around, lighters in the air, and everyone happy and faded af. Wild nights with thousands of people. #acdc
Modern studio produced albums cannot be played live. Artists today in general cannot perform. Swift is in her gendre one of the few. Today ac. DC would be billionaires performing at this level of perfection
I think it's really awesome when someone like yourself says "this isn't my type of music" and then it's effects you like we just saw it do to you through a screen and headphones. You can respect the art, energy and passion of an artist or band still. Really cool.
FACTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I remember my 2 older cousins going to their concerts and posters on their bedroom walls and then I wasn’t of course old enough to go BUT IF they came home I IMMEDIATELY WANTED TO SEE WHAT THEY BOUGHT MERCH WISE, 1 cousin caught a shirt 1 show and had to know details!!!!!! Of course straight to the photo place t get film developed the next day well actually later THAT DAY 😂😂😂😂 cause how late am it was. I loved my aunt letting them live!!!!! (Dad’s sister and he was the same just my mom wouldn’t never allow me to do anything like that)SO INSTEAD I GOT HEAVY INTO RAP BECAUSE SHE KNEW NOTHING ABOUT IT LOL BUT YEAH STILL I HAD A COMPLETE FAMILY WITH UNBELIEVABLE HUGE MUSIC GENRES COLLECTIONS OF ALBUMS REG VINAL, 45’s, 8 tracks etc. oh man and my cassette & cd collection pics up where their age toned down BUT YES THEY ARE STILL AMAZING TO DATE AND SO WAS BON JOVI ABOUT 10 years ago OH M GEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love all ages!!!!!!
Seriously, these guys were known for just walking into a studio, setting up their stuff and cranking out albums. They weren't laying down individual instrument or vocal tracks in sound booths. They would all be in the same room and just play and record it.
I'm from Argentina. My big brother and I were there, at that precise show at River Plate Stadium. It was AMAZING. I live at another state and took a flight after a long day of work. My brother was waiting for me at the airport, which was "near" the stadium. I remember that at one point we started to run, cause we were already late and at the precise moment that I put my feet on the stadium's grass, AC/DC started the show! It was one of the greatest and most "professional" show that I have ever watched. And yeah, a couple of months later, we were there again to see Metallica. I have to say that AC/DC sounds better. They're just amazing when performing live.
There are fixed Camera shots that are literally (in the correct use of the word) shaking from the crowd shaking the entire stadiums foundations. Acca Dacca are great like that. It wouldn't suprise me if they have to forewarn seismologists when they perform so they don't freak them out with the seismograph readings they make.
Welcome to the dark side Cliff. It is refreshing to see you reacting to something that I have been enjoying since the late 70's. They are going on their 50th anniversary tour this year starting in Europe (April I believe). That is not a noose, it is just a loop underneath a bell that they used for Hells Bells. Brian Johnson (Lead singer) jumped and used the loop to stand in for the opening of the song. The concert at River Plate drew approximately 220,000 people for a three day concert (roughly 72,000 per show) and is the last time that Argentina allowed the use of stadiums for concerts. It seems that some of the plaster on the buildings around the stadium was cracking and falling off. One hell of a concert.
Love it mate. Seen them a dozen times. I took my two of my kids (9 & 11) to see them on this tour at Wembley Stadium. My third kid was only 3 at the time, so she stayed at home. But now, 15 years later I'm taking her to her to Wembley Stadium in July for first AC/DC gig. Proper parenting.
Cliff, you need to acknowledge this was a live concert in Buenos Aires, Argentina in 2009. Best crowd ever... then and always. Not in Australia. And bear in mind that their mother tongue is Spanish, not English. They just love good music and great performers. Kudos from Peru to my brothers in Argentina. You people rock. Gracias totales.
Cliff, your comment starting at 6:01 is so spot on. Passing music knowledge on to your kids and to quote you, "They are either there with thier parents or there, because of their parents" really hit home with me. My kids have thanked me on several occasions for introducing them to the music I grew up on. Great reaction video!
When I was 15, my older brother said he'd take me and a friend to a concert. Mom couldn't know. It was AC\DC Back in Black in concert. Had no idea who they were. But what a WILD concert. Shook me all night long, who doesn't know that song. Great band, hope you do more ❤
I'm 52 and grew up on AC/DC as a kid. I obviously went on to see and aquire new taste as my years went by. In my 40's AC/DC came to my town and I bought tickets thinking it'll be like "old" times from the radio. Heck no, they sound exactly live like they ever did that we knew they sounded like from thier albums. Infact, if you're wearing headphones and squish them to your inner ears on full blast, that's a live AC/DC concert. Thier stage performace over 40 to 50 years, that's why they lasted for multigenerations.
I have seen many concerts in my day, and AC/DC is amazing, the best. I was literally exhausted just attending the concert. The energy at the concert is 110% from start to finish.
The ENTIRE concert is like that and worth watching. And if they come to a city near you, they STILL bring massive energy and worth seeing while Brian and Angus are still alive.
When bands could play music, write songs, sing , entertain the crowd. Music was so different back in the 70s and 80s. We were blessed to have so many amazing artists. The live shows would last for 3 hours. The parties in the parking lot, so many memories.
This band and this song means a lot to the folks of Toronto. The World Health Organization had thrown us under the bus during SARS ( I will NEVER forgive them for abandoning us) and it crippled our tourism industry for a couple of years. Massive unemployment. The boys took part in a big concert for the city. Made a huge difference in our morale. They were good to us.
That's them live bro.. you have to watch Angus perform "Let There Be Rock" from this same concert. You get to ask yourself: "how can a 5'5" 50 year old in boxer shorts and a guitar hold a crowd for 7 minutes with the longest craziest guitar solo you will ever see. Sad that brother Malcolm (rhythm guitar) has past. Malcolm suffered from dementia and was showing signs of it in this concert. He died in 2014. The whole concert is epic. Love you energy with this. Kia kaha from NZ.
“I’ve lived here over a mile away from Wembly Stadium for over 5 years. Ive never once heard anything from the stadium. I can absolutely hear AC/DC tonight”. Was a quote I read once
First time I saw these was in 1978 at a collage concert and I have followed them since as it stands I am at 16 times seeing them. you really need to see them in the early days with Bon Scott (RIP).
As crazy and unfair it sounds, Brian is perfect - Bon is better. It is brutal... unfair.... but true. I appologize to Brian, but with Bon they are even better.
I've seen them 4 times live since Back in Black, and they sound exactly the same every time. Sometimes it's hard to tell, especially inside, since they are the LOUDEST band I have ever seen. I wear earplugs to cut the volume down so I can actually HEAR the music. I finally got to take my sons to see them about 15 years ago for Black Ice. It was a Sunday evening. We were hungry after the concert. Being Sunday evening, the only thing open on our way home was a White Castle burger place. The lobby was packed with people shouting at each other because they'd all been to the concert and were half deaf. Good times!
Ac dc have played more gigs than any other band in the history of music (once played to 4 people who won tickets on a radio show in the early days,gave them the full 90 min set.) They LOVE their amazing music. Totally live ,no bull
Hands down AC/DC is the real deal. No cleanup necessary. Pure adrenaline baby. That's what this generation chewed on for breakfast. Rock and roll forever! 🧑🎤
If you have not been to an AC/DC concert, you have not been to a great concert seen them live in 1981 just before I went into the Marines what a great concert and at age 69 Angus Young is still jamming with the best of them because he is the best of them
Metallica Enter Sandman video might scare the hell out of you than..........1.3 million crowd attendance, fully counted I'll be at Louder than Life 2024 in Louisville, check out that lineup cause it nuts
Yeah, you really should clarify that it was th '91 monsters of rock tour in Moscow right after the Soviet union collapsed, and it was the first time rock metal came to Russia and AC/DC were the headliners... why does everyone make it seem like it was metallica's concert... all it does is just fuel lars ego and convince him even more that he can actually play the drums😂
My Playlist "1991" on My Channel "Sunquake Airworks" on Utube. Monsters of Rock in Moscow ... Besides 4.333 Titels You havent even heared about ... Enjoy
lol, Hockey mom here. This song just reminds me of the many, many early mornings on weekends during the winter at all the different arenas. Me along with all the other parents in the dressing room putting hockey equipment on our sons when they were little. AC/DC Thunderstruck blasting loudly, sometimes at 7:30 in the morning, before their hockey games. It's still a good song. And good memories.
Hey bro I'm in the Spring of 1990 I was 14 years old and I went to my very First Rock Concert at the Original Arco Arena in Sacramento CA, it was "The Razors Edge" World Tour and I saw this live from the Mosh Pit with one of my good friends and his older brother and have loved AC/DC from when I was ten years old and I started listening to Jimi Hendrix, Ozzy Osborne, Metallica and Black Sabbath etc.... I also saw them from the parking lot at Cal Expo where they have the California State Fair every year when I was younger along with the Grateful Dead also.... this was one of my Favorite concerts and my first concert to have ever attended!!!! -Alexander The Great
I saw these guys in front of 500,000 people in Toronto in 2003. Let me tell you it was like an earthquake hit. It was so loud people in the area just sat outside and rocked for the 13 hour festival. Epic are the only words to describe the show❤
Toronto girl here. The lads came to help us during the SARS epidemic. Toronto was brought to its knees when The Workd Health Org threw us under the bus. With ACDC on the concert list, they brought a lot of attention to Toronto. Blew away the World Health Org's lies about us. The boys will always be heroes for me.
They are known for having THE. BEST. LIVE. SHOWS. EVER. And I'm 54 years old, with high blood pressure (heart attack survivor since age 48), and when I need to get pumped up for work or while at work, THIS IS MY SONG. Migraine or not, I'm HEADBANGING.
I was privileged enough to see AC/DC when they came to New Zealand about 10 years ago. I was so blown away by their musicianship, stage presence and just plain incredible charisma. Totally blew me away.
I saw them in concert in 2008 and YES they sound that good live in concert! They are incredible live. Artists back in the day didn't have autotune and other things, they had to be good all the time or they didn't make it. And yes when they play thunderstruck and get to that point, the audience can't help but start to move like that. It happened at the concert I was at in 2008, which was smaller than this one in 2009. You can't help it, the song just moves through you. That's why you are all jacked up. When I want to work out but don't have the energy, I blast this song and suddenly I need to workout to burn off the energy now cursing through me.
Glad you called out ppl saying they've NEVER heard this. I have it happen with a lot of songs where I'll hear 10 seconds of it in a movie then a year later I hear it on the radio and I go "OHH THIS IS THAT ONE SONG!" And I'm sure ppl have that for Thunderstruck all the time. You've heard it before, even if you don't know it
I seen this same tour back in 2009, and let me tell you it was the BEST concert I have ever seen live! The crowd was just as big, and the place was ROCKING just like that! Best night of my life seeing my favorite band live! If you get the chance to see them GOOOOOOO!!!!
I've seen them live 3 times, once with Bon, twice with Brian....tight, loud, and pure energy!!!!!......this IS what they sound like......we metalheads are hard-core
I saw them when I was 18 years old at the SkyDome in Toronto. I'm not the biggest ACDC fan, that said, easily one of the best concerts I've ever seen. They had 3 cannons in the upper level that they set off during shoot to thrill, the booms were incredible.
That is live. That’s what they sound like.
Acdc is like a kind of band thats sounds good in live that the original version

Live they are as good (better) then in the studio. What me always amazed, the energy. AC-DC is pure energy. No other band push so much energy then them. Also they are so tight. The tightest band of all time.
And they are really great - even now. For sure, Brian was the very best replacement, but even after 44 years, there is only ONE Bon Scott. Nobody reaches him, only one is a little bit "better" - Freddie. But next to him, no one can hold Bons Water.
That crowd made seismographs over 100 miles away go off.
Mission accomplished! 😊
The dream.
Six times.
I heard they had to shut down the stadium for 2 weeks afterward to repair cracks.
@@barrydunn682 - I heard the floor was deemed beyond repair and had to be completely replaced.

"Does anybody else feel jacked up?"
Yes. Every single time I hear them.

Because they love us, and want us to be happy.😊
That feeling is what it means to be 'Thunderstruck'.
damn straight
So does my Neighbor, whether or not they want to listen.
“Does anyone feel like they’ve been electrocuted?” That’s high voltage rock and roll for you, brother, and no one does it better than them

You do not need to explain this - it is obvious.... it is ACDC. :)

Heh heh 😂
I'm from Australia and saw Bon Scott leading AC/DC in pubs while growing up
That’s awesome 👏
Me too, Bondi Lifesaver gigs were awesome.
Me too 👍🇦🇺
I'm jealous
They didn't need autotune, and they didn't need "cleaning up"....... they had talent, skill, and drive, and they KNEW how to rock!
why "had"? They still do...
@@markyoungman148 just wanted to day that...
That reaction is exactly why ACDC is still to this day one of the greatest rock acts of all time.

I am nearly 70 and have been rocking out to ACDC since the 70s up until now.

Ditto! I miss those days so much but I’m blessed I was there to see it all! 🤟🏼
I saw them in Gillette Stadium years ago and i saw a tribute band called dirty deeds that did a lot of their songs
Seen them live twice in the early 90's in Atlanta and New Orleans. They just show up and kick ass for a couple hours.

Cliff, your comment starting at 6:01 is so spot on. Passing music knowledge on to your kids and to quote you, "They are either there with thier parents or there, because of their parents" really hit home with me. My kids have thanked me on several occasions for introducing them to the music I grew up on. Great reaction video!
When I was 15, my older brother said he'd take me and a friend to a concert. Mom couldn't know. It was AC\DC Back in Black in concert. Had no idea who they were. But what a WILD concert. Shook me all night long, who doesn't know that song. Great band, hope you do more ❤
I'm 52 and grew up on AC/DC as a kid. I obviously went on to see and aquire new taste as my years went by. In my 40's AC/DC came to my town and I bought tickets thinking it'll be like "old" times from the radio. Heck no, they sound exactly live like they ever did that we knew they sounded like from thier albums. Infact, if you're wearing headphones and squish them to your inner ears on full blast, that's a live AC/DC concert. Thier stage performace over 40 to 50 years, that's why they lasted for multigenerations.
AC/DC is legendary! Always a big party! They can fill the biggest arenas in the world if they want to!
I have seen many concerts in my day, and AC/DC is amazing, the best. I was literally exhausted just attending the concert. The energy at the concert is 110% from start to finish.
The noose is for Brian to swing on during the introduction to Hell's Bells
Founded in 1973 , 50 + years later still making music.
Long live AC⚡️DC 🤘
RIP Malcolm Young
Highway to Hell at the same concert was even impressive
Rosie beats the Highway... :D
Yes it's live, & AC/DC are really just that good.
The ENTIRE concert is like that and worth watching. And if they come to a city near you, they STILL bring massive energy and worth seeing while Brian and Angus are still alive.
The noose is a foot loop attached to a bell for the song Hells Bells that lifts Brian Johnson up in the air..
An important point of clarification
It funny how people just assume it's a noose and are either slightly concerned or just straight-up offended
I was just getting ready to say that! Watch Hells Bells and you’ll know what the rope’s for!
Welcome to the world of Ac/Dc
When bands could play music, write songs, sing , entertain the crowd. Music was so different back in the 70s and 80s. We were blessed to have so many amazing artists. The live shows would last for 3 hours. The parties in the parking lot, so many memories.
Had the privilege to see them 4 times starting in 1981. Just the best concerts , they give so much energy, amazing.
My first concert was AC/DC with Bon Scott, and The Scorpions and Ted Nugent opening up at Market Square Arena in Indianapolis. 🤘🤘
Just the fact that it was in Argentina, a spanish speaking country, and without a doubt the best crowd for concert, is a wholesome experience.
BEEN ROCKING OUT WITH THEM WAY BACK IN THE 70S.
This band and this song means a lot to the folks of Toronto. The World Health Organization had thrown us under the bus during SARS ( I will NEVER forgive them for abandoning us) and it crippled our tourism industry for a couple of years. Massive unemployment.
The boys took part in a big concert for the city. Made a huge difference in our morale. They were good to us.
That's them live bro.. you have to watch Angus perform "Let There Be Rock" from this same concert. You get to ask yourself: "how can a 5'5" 50 year old in boxer shorts and a guitar hold a crowd for 7 minutes with the longest craziest guitar solo you will ever see. Sad that brother Malcolm (rhythm guitar) has past. Malcolm suffered from dementia and was showing signs of it in this concert. He died in 2014. The whole concert is epic. Love you energy with this. Kia kaha from NZ.
He died in 2017! RIP the best rhythm guitarist ever period
“I’ve lived here over a mile away from Wembly Stadium for over 5 years. Ive never once heard anything from the stadium. I can absolutely hear AC/DC tonight”. Was a quote I read once
First time I saw these was in 1978 at a collage concert and I have followed them since as it stands I am at 16 times seeing them. you really need to see them in the early days with Bon Scott (RIP).
And RIP Malcolm!
As crazy and unfair it sounds, Brian is perfect - Bon is better. It is brutal... unfair.... but true. I appologize to Brian, but with Bon they are even better.
Parents? Grandparents. They've been rockin' for 50 years.
Check out Hell's Bells from this same concert and you'll see what the noose is for. BTW - welcome, my young friend, to the magic that is AC/DC.
That crowd motion always reminds me of watching a speaker vibrate when you have the cover off. What energy.
Ive seen these dudes live 3 times...watch every video you can from Live at River Plate
I've seen them 4 times live since Back in Black, and they sound exactly the same every time. Sometimes it's hard to tell, especially inside, since they are the LOUDEST band I have ever seen. I wear earplugs to cut the volume down so I can actually HEAR the music. I finally got to take my sons to see them about 15 years ago for Black Ice. It was a Sunday evening. We were hungry after the concert. Being Sunday evening, the only thing open on our way home was a White Castle burger place. The lobby was packed with people shouting at each other because they'd all been to the concert and were half deaf. Good times!
We really loved going to concerts 70's 80's, we rocked together and no phones.
Ac dc have played more gigs than any other band in the history of music (once played to 4 people who won tickets on a radio show in the early days,gave them the full 90 min set.) They LOVE their amazing music. Totally live ,no bull
Just another day in Oz....THIS is how we get down at a pub when "AKKER DAKKA" comes on
I've been to concerts like that, this music from my teenage years, boy did we have fun
The BEST live performance of any rock band ever
There's no words to explain the energy at AC⚡️DC concerts. So grateful I saw them live in 2001's Stiff Upper Lip tour 🤘🤘🤘🤘⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️🇨🇦❤🔥
Thats a understatement Cliff that's should be a HELL YA! THATS MY SHIT! let's go!
Hands down AC/DC is the real deal. No cleanup necessary. Pure adrenaline baby. That's what this generation chewed on for breakfast.
Rock and roll forever! 🧑🎤
I can vouch for the black community that this shit goes hard
You seen the Monsters in Moscow 1991 crowd? 1.6 million people chanting DIE! as backing vocals during Metallica's Creeping Death is nuts.
Yeah! This guy must see that ❤ Metallica 1991 live in moscow
Whole Lotta Rosie from the same concert, you'll love it ❤😂
If you have not been to an AC/DC concert, you have not been to a great concert seen them live in 1981 just before I went into the Marines what a great concert and at age 69 Angus Young is still jamming with the best of them because he is the best of them
Metallica Enter Sandman video might scare the hell out of you than..........1.3 million crowd attendance, fully counted
I'll be at Louder than Life 2024 in Louisville, check out that lineup cause it nuts
and that was the support act to acdc but as it was night you dont get the full effect of the crowd size
Yes that one is amazing too
Yeah, you really should clarify that it was th '91 monsters of rock tour in Moscow right after the Soviet union collapsed, and it was the first time rock metal came to Russia and AC/DC were the headliners... why does everyone make it seem like it was metallica's concert... all it does is just fuel lars ego and convince him even more that he can actually play the drums😂
Which was been headlined by AC-DC!!
@@bgumm9122 the metallica in moscow gig
This is 100 percent original. I’ve been to see them twice in concert! Best concert ever
Watch Metallica enter sandman live Moscow 1991😮
AC/DC played at that concert also. So did Pantera. 1.6 million people at that one.
I was going to suggest Du Hast by Ramstein.
I don’t like Metallica.😂
YES!! 🔥🔥🔥
My Playlist "1991" on My Channel "Sunquake Airworks" on Utube.
Monsters of Rock in Moscow ...
Besides 4.333 Titels You havent even heared about ...
Enjoy
They are my mom's age in this performance! No excuses to say I'm "too old" for anything. Amazing band full of energy.
The best crowd ever!!!!!!
ARGENTINA 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
The best rock band ever!!
This what real musicians sound like, no clean up, nothing extra, just them in all their glory 🤘🏾
lol, Hockey mom here. This song just reminds me of the many, many early mornings on weekends during the winter at all the different arenas. Me along with all the other parents in the dressing room putting hockey equipment on our sons when they were little. AC/DC Thunderstruck blasting loudly, sometimes at 7:30 in the morning, before their hockey games. It's still a good song. And good memories.
What you see, is what you get with these guys. Brilliant! Exactly how live should sound.
I checked to see how many fans were in attendance and my source said nearly 200,000 people. I'm 73 and still listen to AC/DC. Dan
The same concert, performance of "TNT" is an even bigger crowd response. Its insane.
Hey bro I'm in the Spring of 1990 I was 14 years old and I went to my very First Rock Concert at the Original Arco Arena in Sacramento CA, it was "The Razors Edge" World Tour and I saw this live from the Mosh Pit with one of my good friends and his older brother and have loved AC/DC from when I was ten years old and I started listening to Jimi Hendrix, Ozzy Osborne, Metallica and Black Sabbath etc.... I also saw them from the parking lot at Cal Expo where they have the California State Fair every year when I was younger along with the Grateful Dead also.... this was one of my Favorite concerts and my first concert to have ever attended!!!!
-Alexander The Great
Seen them 5 times, NEVER fails to impress!! ❤
I’m so jealous.
@@anpat3 They are AMAZING
In my seventies and still rock with ACDC .Brilliant, love it.
That killer guitar riff sows the seeds that reaps the storm.
I saw these guys in front of 500,000 people in Toronto in 2003. Let me tell you it was like an earthquake hit. It was so loud people in the area just sat outside and rocked for the 13 hour festival. Epic are the only words to describe the show❤
Toronto girl here. The lads came to help us during the SARS epidemic. Toronto was brought to its knees when The Workd Health Org threw us under the bus. With ACDC on the concert list, they brought a lot of attention to Toronto. Blew away the World Health Org's lies about us. The boys will always be heroes for me.
They are known for having THE. BEST. LIVE. SHOWS. EVER. And I'm 54 years old, with high blood pressure (heart attack survivor since age 48), and when I need to get pumped up for work or while at work, THIS IS MY SONG. Migraine or not, I'm HEADBANGING.
I was privileged enough to see AC/DC when they came to New Zealand about 10 years ago. I was so blown away by their musicianship, stage presence and just plain incredible charisma. Totally blew me away.
This is live..they sound amazing live
Definitely live. That’s what AC/DC sound like.
I saw them in concert in 2008 and YES they sound that good live in concert! They are incredible live. Artists back in the day didn't have autotune and other things, they had to be good all the time or they didn't make it.
And yes when they play thunderstruck and get to that point, the audience can't help but start to move like that. It happened at the concert I was at in 2008, which was smaller than this one in 2009. You can't help it, the song just moves through you. That's why you are all jacked up. When I want to work out but don't have the energy, I blast this song and suddenly I need to workout to burn off the energy now cursing through me.
Also I have to say RIP Malcolm Young.
Glad you called out ppl saying they've NEVER heard this. I have it happen with a lot of songs where I'll hear 10 seconds of it in a movie then a year later I hear it on the radio and I go "OHH THIS IS THAT ONE SONG!" And I'm sure ppl have that for Thunderstruck all the time. You've heard it before, even if you don't know it
I seen this same tour back in 2009, and let me tell you it was the BEST concert I have ever seen live! The crowd was just as big, and the place was ROCKING just like that! Best night of my life seeing my favorite band live! If you get the chance to see them GOOOOOOO!!!!
One of many great bands that came out of Australia :)
Thank you AC/DC.
Thank you Australia.
Thank you Argentina.
Nothing but love and appreciation from the USA!
they are absolute legends man:D great reaction
I've seen them live 3 times, once with Bon, twice with Brian....tight, loud, and pure energy!!!!!......this IS what they sound like......we metalheads are hard-core
I saw them when I was 18 years old at the SkyDome in Toronto. I'm not the biggest ACDC fan, that said, easily one of the best concerts I've ever seen. They had 3 cannons in the upper level that they set off during shoot to thrill, the booms were incredible.
