By Bruce A. Ritzen, Seattle, WA:
The lads proved themselves still the top of the heap at putting on a rock concert. Even though noticeably pacing themselves compared to previous tours, they put more energy into one song than most bands put into an entire evening. First-rate playing, tight and musical (yes, musical - heck, they even through some dynamics in there), with Brian screaming his guts out over top. The packed crowd was really into it, even giving strong ovations to the new material. I found the visual spectacle, though a definite presence, a lot less distracting than the previous couple of tours, which is a good thing - they are at their best when the let the music do the talking. Man, I hope they come through the area again next year - life's too short to not have another AC/DC show in it!
By Reini, Tacoma, WA:
The boys from down under did themselves proud in Tacoma. The sound and sights were just like it was decades ago. They never missed a beat. Rock on! and Thanks for a wonderful night of rock 'n roll.

I've been a fan for many years. I saw their show in Spokane, WA back in the late 70s before they were even not know much about. The show they put on then was raw and exciting. After 30 years the show that I went to in Tacoma was just as raw and exciting as of time gone buy. I would recommend this concert to anybody. I took my youngest son with me and he had worked the previous summer at a concert theater as a stage security person and said that the show was the best thing that he had ever seen and was a once in a lifetime experience. I was able to have that feeling twice!
By Brett, Tacoma, WA:
The concert in Tacoma was great!!! I hadn't seen them since the Ballbreaker tour and they still put on an awesome show. The old classics such as Whole Lotta Rosie and The Jack really got the crowd going! Lots of great material from the Back In Black album along with 5 new ones from the latest Black Ice. I am hoping that they end up doing a second leg of the tour where this time they will come back up and go to Seattle. If so, I will be there!! This year marked 30 years since the first time I saw them (this was #8) when I was 15 when they toured with Cheap Trick and Ted Nugent. For those cities that are yet to come...you are all in for a blast!!!
By Rae Barry, Seattle, Washington:
From the second the trailer played the Comic strip type movie clip of the train, Angus and the girls to the train usting through to the stage, Rosie billowing out the top and sitting on the train, to Angus in classic, classic form. Then Brian, at 61 years young, HOLY COW! What energy and dynamic appeal keeping everyone pumped up! It didn't matter what they played, they played everything all out, balls to the wall, rocking hard on, ear splitting, best rock show in the world ever!!! I am still pumped 11 days later! Humming Rock and Roll Train, the Jack, Back in Black, I can't stop smiling and talking about the concert and have sent the PI Review of it to everyone I know. When are they coming back and how soon, I need another AC/DC concert fix!! Come on back Boys! We love you!
By Rob V., Missoula, MT:
1st song sounded like shit way too much distortion, but by end of second sound was good. I have seen them every tour since 1988 at the cow palace, all in all a great show but not enough old classics and too much off the new Lp which I do love but come on guys, 5 off the new one and only 7 from your 1st six! That is just B.S! But Brian sounds better than ever but at twice as much for a ticket as their last tour and they play 20-30 minutes less, is what makes this the least fav dc' concert ever! I have never felt let down by them till now especially since before the tour Brian had said that with all there material we could expect the shows to be at least 2 hrs up to 2.5. Still worth seeing, I can only hope they're saving it all for the stadium tour this summer. Good luck lads and don't forget your real fans who buy everything!
By Jim, Spokane, WA:
The experience of my short 23 years of existence finally came true when I got to see my idols in concert!
The night opened up with the Irish band The Answer. Don't know them, but they sounded fine. Of course, it wasn't until 8:40 that night, when a cartoon appeared on the video screen. After an explosion in the end, AC/DC roared on stage with their life-sized train!
The concert was wind-blowing, ear-bleeding, and an f***in' good 2 hours of fist-shaking and screaming to every song!
My 80's style Mom rode along for the ride, too! She used to play all the AC/DC material back in '80s when she was pregnant with me. I have been listening to those records every since I was in her stomach.
AC/DC are the true gods of rock, and I hope they come back to the Seattle area on their tour! Rock on, boys!
By Rudi de Groot, Calgary, Alberta, Canada:
Top 3 concert! Sound was deadly (which is pretty rare for arena), and the lads were on fire!
Richard Copeland: I just threw my pics up, I think we were seated behind you, let me know if that's you and your son =)
