must be one of the greatest and unbelievable moments in Rock to have Axl sing with the boys! I would have never ever believed it and it works just incredible.
Axl fit in very nicely at the Columbus, Ohio show!!! Great concert with a ton of "oldies", Sin City, Riff Raff, Given' the Dog a Bone!!! Enjoyed my self very much!
And AC/DC have a blow up doll bigger than a house on stage and roll out fake cannons, and sell tons of cheap shirts at a ridiculous price. So what! It's part of the experience at this point. I've seen them 16 times starting with Aug 10, 1978 in a smaller venue with Bon Scott running right past me in general admission with Angus on his back pouring sweat on everyone they passed, to seeing them in Giant Stadium on the Black Ice Tour, to this concert with Axl as fill in and enjoyed the hell out of every show. 20 to 30 years from now in my very senior years I can look at those devil horns up on my mantle and remember the good time I had at the AC/DC concert. No at at 50 something I'm not trying to rush the stage and crush someone (my ribs and chest have been come away very bruised from some of those earlier general admission shows) but at this point instead of being in a drunken stupor trying to kill each other, I prefer to sit back with my devil horns and watch Angus and Co. Shred one more time.
@@JasonEdge I'm talking about the good percentage of the crowd in the video,dead or what. It looks like they've never seen a rock show like it and have only bought the horns to be cool,but no excitement or going off very dull audience.
@@russe19642 Well, 20 to 40 years ago 90% of the audience would have been in a drunken stupor jumping up and down screaming, without much memory of the show the next day. When I saw them at age 13, Aug 1978, most of the audience were stoned, drunk or on acid or all 3 and screamed their bloody lungs out the entire show. Nothing wrong with that. I am glad I was a bit to young to get into the drugs and booze and have very clear memories of that show. Fast forward to my early 50's and the Greendsboro show in 2016, I saw moms and dads with their grand kids, more inclined to just take in the spectactular that was AC/DC and Angus Young than jump up and down and shout for 2 hours. I guess I am firmly in the "dull" camp, but I have a great memory of what may be the last time I ever get to see Angus shred live (hope not!), and got some pretty decent steady-handed (i.e. sober) 4K video of Angus & Company. What this "dull" 50 year old will be not not let anyone tell me that it looks like I have never seen a rock show before. At this point I actually want to "see" the rock show and not just jump up and down shout and spill my beer on everyone.
@@JasonEdge nothing wrong in taking a back seat and let the young ones take the front, I'm talking about the obviously mid 30yos in the crowd in front that look like they've gone from hearing their reputation without having a solid background of years of listening to acdc kinda like those that buy band t-shirts but not the albums, so they buy the horns cause that's what they've seen to do.I'm 57 myself and saw them in 88 and had rear seats but you could go to the front if you wanted,but it was a right of passage to do so so to speak as it took twenty minutes to push your way thru to get halfway near the front stage and if you weren't going off you couldn't hold your position in the throng and you felt compelled to back pedal and move back which I did because I didn't have energy after fighting my way thru the crowd and if I went now I wouldn't contemplate even trying and would just enjoy them from a comfy seat being able to get to the bar easier.
@@russe19642 These are assigned seats with a "tiered" price structure and no "going to the front". Things have changed very much since 1988! Price goes into the hundreds when you get up front at these indoor venues, at least at most places in the USA. Very different from the general admission structure of the 70's and into the 80's. I am guessing many outdoor venues, and perhaps more so in Europe, still have general admission. I remember being at the Black Ice concerts in Charlotte, NC and elsewhere and had paid the BIG BUCKS for first 5 row seats. Most of the people at the very front were like me... there to enjoy the show and not so much "raise hell". I was in college in 1988 and saw them during that period on the Blow Up Your Video tour four times. Things were changing even then. I was going to NC State and saw them at Hampton Colliseum, VA, Charlotte, NC and Greensboro, NC... all general admission, earlier in the tour. I had some big buddies and remember pushing my way to the stage at the Charlotte show in particular and being literally crushed from behind from the constant 2 hr push. I had a bruise across my chest the next day where I was rammed up against the barracade. It was drunken, fun, loud and crazy. They announced later on that tour they were actually coming to NC State Reynolds Coliseum but the floor was not General Admission and I had to camp out 3 days. I was at the very front of that line and bought 3 front row tickets and 3 2nd row tickets and took my mom with my crowd to that show. That would not have worked out at the General Admission shows I had just seen. While the General Admission shows were a rite of passage for me, it was nice to beable to go thru ticket master, or camp out several days and get up front before the "tiered" ticket structure kicked in. Someone figured out there are people with deep pockets that grew up with these bands and can pay say $500 for the 1st 3 rows, $300 for the next 6 rows. $200 for the next 12 rows and on and on. That I have not been a fan of, even though I can afford those tickets at this stage and have ponied up the big bucks for Tom Petty a few years back and AC Prior, but for AC/DC with AXL in Greensboro I knew Angus would be out on the middle during LTBR and they put on a Huge Stage show so I settled for the "cheap seats" in Greensboro. If they come back around, I will probably pony up the Big Bucks to get close to Angus, Brian, and company one more time.
He doesnt get in the news much but from what ive heard hes fine, keeping busy with the racing and his new radio show. His hearing technology should be ready within a few months which will allow him to get back on stages, but it remains to be seen if the band will have him back. I sure hope so...
Although that sounds weird and a bit disrespectful to Bon, I kinda agree with you. Its great they bring some of the classics back but for the last 36 years, ac/dc's setlist has consisted only of Bon era songs, BIB songs and songs off the new album (only exceptions FTATR, Thunderstruck and RNR Train). If they wanna play some rare songs they should play some of the Brian era too. A few weeks ago on Facebook ac/dc asked which rare songs the fans would like to hear, and you only have to look through the comments to see how many people, including me, wanted to hear Brian era songs, especially from the 80's. Yet all they add to the setlist is another Bon song...
agreed. if they tour again they should definitely pick some songs from Flick of the Switch, Fly on the Wall, Blow Up Your Video, Ballbreaker and Stiff Upper Lip.

What a good view on the band !
Great audio and video. Thanks for sharing.
Excelente...
notice axl started little late ...either way was good show I was in upper level still great to see them live for first time
haha yeah, but stevie in the back is singing :F
This reminds me of the new song Demon Fire, it's the riff doing it I think.
1:06 Esse riff é tão contagiante que o Axl mandou o passinho com 60 anos de idade e foda-se
AXL KILLS! Awesome!
Acdc: we're here
American audience: we bought devil horns

Anyone knows any thing about Brian? how is his health?

Boring audience! They don´t want to hear the Bon Scott songs.
They just want to hear the 80s and 90s stuff, but not the classics. Shame on them.
Although that sounds weird and a bit disrespectful to Bon, I kinda agree with you. Its great they bring some of the classics back but for the last 36 years, ac/dc's setlist has consisted only of Bon era songs, BIB songs and songs off the new album (only exceptions FTATR, Thunderstruck and RNR Train).

I was there. this is not true. We were simply surprised and stunt
Look who was singing.
agreed. if they tour again they should definitely pick some songs from Flick of the Switch, Fly on the Wall, Blow Up Your Video, Ballbreaker and Stiff Upper Lip.
