Once again proves my point that they r the best Australian rock
band ever. I took my dad last night for saw them in 1974 with
Bon, we caught the train down from Newcastle.
Got really cool seats, I counted 32 speaker on each side which
made it very fuking loud. Living End started the night very
popular band in Sydney, they were pretty good. "Your at
a fuking ACDC concert not a library make some noise Sydney".
Living End singer the chant for ANGUS went around the centre.
The chill that went down my spine when angus and the boys came
out was amazing!!!!!!
They played the same set as the other Australian show, playing
sin city and get it hot instead of the new songs off stiff upper
lip. Lots of old songs which made my dad happy "You know
when your back in Sydney" Brian "You guys r a rough
Sydney I luv it" Brian plain and simple ppl, if u saw Angus
do what he did I think ACDC will be around for a long time.
Highlight was for sure Let There Be Rock, its the fastest I
have ever heard them play that song and the extended solo was
amazing.
GREAT SHOW GUYS ! SEE U IN CANBERRA ON SATURDAY
its now Wednesday morning, my ears r ringing like shit and I
have a sore thorat but fuk it was worth it!!!!
p.s bring your money if u wanna by a shirt cost me 45$, and
make sure u listen to the Back In Black album!!!!!!

THE GREATEST ROCK SHOW ON EARTH!!!!
This was my 5th time seeing the boys and they never disapoint.
I was six rows from the front near the walkway which made Brian
and Angus more accessible to the fans. HIGHLIGHTS buying my
tickets on the 16th Oct, then counting down the days, "the
whole show", driving home to Newcastle deaf. One thing
that stands out in OZ fans where a rough bunch but seeing all
ages" MEN, WOMEN and KIDS dressed as Angus" all chanting
Angus for 10 minutes gets the hairs on your neck stand up just
waiting for Oz most loved ban and true rock legends to come
on stage. Just one more thing the rock n roll hall of fame is
just the hall of shame until these boys get in!!!!!
Anyway to Mal, Angus, Phil, Cliff and Brian YOU ROCK. FOR THOSE
ABOUT TO ROCK for us WE the fans SALUTE THEM. See ya next TOUR.

Gee, where do i start, what an amazing show, 12,000 people in
syd on their toes, you know when acdc comes to syd town its
going to be one hell of a show. From the start with shook me
as an opener to the cannons of for those about to rock. I have
to say the boys were in top form, songs of the night for me
were dirty deeds, hard as a rock and the song of the night shoot
to thrill. I'll definitely catch the last show in syd, oh and
if you miss this show well u obviously don't like rock n roll,
cheers to angus and the boys.

i've gotta say i haven't been a huge ac/dc fan for many years
but after the Sydney performance i'm now a massive fan 4 life.
It was totally awesome. The Sydneysiders were pumping as Australia's
greatest ever rock band returned home 4 a powerhouse performance.
Angus stole the show with his fantastic solos and crazy antics
such as his strip show exposing Australia on his boxer shorts,
this nearly brought down the house.
The rest of the band gave an explosive performance especially
Brian who gave a magical show on the mike to an audience who
love the past work of Bon Scott. My favourite numbers of the
night would have to be "Thunderstruck" 4 pure crowd
excitement as well as "Highway to Hell" with it's
flames and "TNT" which totally went off as it's an
Aussie favourite. The props were great and well used such as
Rosie, the cannons, giant Angus, hells bell and the ticket tape
at the finale. Great show boys keep up the great work.

AC/DC fucken kick arse, no complaints at all. From the awesome
intro of "You shook me all night long" to there 20
minute version of "let there be rock" and the finale
of "for those about to rock".
All that i have to do now is try to get a hold of some money
to go to one of there other Sydney concerts. Rock on AC/DC.

What can I say? Just the words AC\DC invoke all that needs to
be said about them. This concert was the longest, loudest, most
kick-arse concert I have EVER seen, and shit I've seen a few.
The Canberra concert was great 'cause it was just one huge fuckin
mosh pit, they had it outdoors at EPIC and everyone went crazy.
Shit two days later I'm just getting my voice back and my arms
are still sore from the constant pumping in the air!!!
They had a few bars there too which helped everyone get crazy,
although nobody got out of hand at all. From the moment when
the guys walked out onto the stage with everyone chanting Angus
at the top of their lungs, to the final chords of "For
those about to Rock", this was the greatest concert ever.
One thing though, how the fuck does Angus do it? He must have
lost a shit load of weight through sweat, cause everytime I
saw him, especially during "Let there be rock" there
was gallons of sweat coming off him. In fact it looked like
someone had turned a hose on.
If I never see them again, this will be something that will
stick with me forever.
AC\DC -- ROCK ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Once again a absolutely great show. I wanted to go to this show
because this concert was outside and all g/a i was at the front
in the left hand corner of the mospit.
147 speakers i counted on the stage which made it very very
fuking loud. Probably the highlight of this show was Bad Boy
Boogie where angus does his strip show.
Same setlist as sydney which was a tad disappointing but i cant
complain.
Lots of olds songs which made it good, im sure how many ppl
were there but fuck i couldnt see any spaces at the park must
have been 20000 ppl who all went home wanting more.
GREAT SHOW AGAIN GUYS

It Rocked!!!. I had the pleasure of being on the local production
crew. It was a very emotional experience for me. The real specs
on the concert were as follows:
Front of house (audience speakers) were the Tour series Electro
Voice X-Array speakers. They weigh 93kg and are a three way
box. There were 32 a side, making 64 in total. The Amps to run
these were also made by EV and were the P3000 model. AT 3000
watts each and 64 of them this made 192,000 watts. Those kik
arse subs for the kick drum and bass guitar were of three different
makes. EV's XCB, EV's MTL-2 double 18'' and the long throw EAW
Subs. For the band to hear an aproximation of about 25000 watts
would be a near guess. So in other words it fucking cranked.
Cheers for the kick arse concert that I will never fogert!
