30 years ago!!!!! 28/10/2008!!!! WOW

Though ac/dc havent ... ( 1 month ago by SauerPilsner)

Though ac/dc havent wrote the best solo in the best song ( stairway to heaven ) they have the best lead guitarist, lead singer, best energy in their songs, best stage shows, best lyrics, coolest name, coolest atitude, and the second best selling album in the world. in my opinion

I've watched this ... ( 1 month ago by poromise)

I've watched this like 5 times in a row now, and it's just PURE FUCKING AMAZING. This is the real raw power, Iggy & the Stooges are nothing compared to this if you ask me.

YES!! And it still ... ( 1 month ago by Choderific)

YES!! And it still kicks the crap out of 99.9% of anything out there today. Especially today. It's interesting to watch "vintage" stuff when the early crowds didn't quite realize what they were seeing yet. Lot of people hugging the wall or otherwise apparently not having THAT much fun. There are some Zep vids out there too of people just kind of watching and moping around while Page is going out of his mind. Are you kidding me? I would have been on the ceiling at this show.

For a bunch of guys ... ( 1 month ago by irritatedmushroom2)

For a bunch of guys hitting the same 3 chords for the best part of 40 years, I'll have to say they're pretty damn good. The audience here didn't have a clue what they were watching, and the sad turn of events that lay around the corner. Still, this kicks ass!

Saw them in concert back in '79 at the old Fabulous Forum in L.A. and they closed with this song. Still got the concert T-Shirt from that night!

so what if it's the same chords? blues is the same chords and scales over and over, and that's been around for a shit-long time. people don't bitch about the simplicity of the blues. why? because playing the simple stuff requires HEART and FEELING, that's why. it's a lot harder than playing ProgRock or MelodicPop. AC/DC FUCKIN ROCKS! that's just the way it is man. why? because they have HEART and FEELING. you try making 3 chords sound this good! Nobody can. and that's why they're famous. PERIOD!

excellent point.. you hit it on the head man.. Thats why the young brothers rock and have lasted.. and Yngwie Malmstrom, an all speed/shred/difficult guitar player, eeks out a living somewhere in the deep recesses of europe doing souless and unfeeling solos

ac/dc has been an inspiration to pretty much eveery rock known to man. man angus is a god, u cant even describe in words how great he is, that goes to everyone else in the band

i think some people ... ( 1 week ago by scooters777)

i think some people didn't know what they were seeing when they went to Led Zep concerts and that there would be nothing like it in 30 years. Huge crowds of people go out of their minds for the jonas brothers and they suck. Different mentality in different times

Please Sony release this concert on dvd! =( It's just such a kickass performance, and I suppose they've got the material to put it all up on cd. I would without doubt buy it.

If only I had lived here then, or in Lancaster when Bad Company played the Uni there. At least I have seen these boys a few times and will see them again in April. At least I saw Freddie and Zappa, too!

Pure rock like this ... ( 2 hours ago by augustusdes)

Pure rock like this is not allowed anymore. You cant smoke, drinking is just about tolerated. Armies of security personnell are on hand to make sure you dont "get out of hand". Angus would probably be told to "stop inciting crowd trouble". They would probably turn down the volume in case anyones ears get hurt. In short, there is an agenda against great rock n roll music and against peoples freedom in general. This looks like the greatest gig ever. At least we can look at it on here thank god
