    My first concert at 15, Monday October 17th 1983 at the Fabulous Forum. Paid $13.50 to see AC/DC. My Virgin ears rang for a week! Still have my ticket stub. 👍✌️❤️🙏🙏🙏

    I watched these guys in concert, Los Angeles Sports Arena, in 1981. Easily the LOUDEST concert ever. My head almost exploded from the volume. Wall to wall pot smoking in every single aisle. Back then, security ignored it. Lots of fun.
    AC/DC: still, the greatest rock band of all time.

      +Robert Jensen Yeah i can agree ..saw them in 85' at cleveland colosum, my ears rang for a day after the show , one of the loudest bands ever in concert. Iron maiden second loudest

      Saw them here in San Diego at the SD sports arena. WORST sound on Earth. Not even an ocean of beer could wash it away. They partly blew out a stack but still kept using it. Oddly enough, one of the funnest concerts I've been to.

    Love this! You can hear Brian is struggling with the high notes early before he has warmed up properly, but the finale shows his ability. This is a rehearsal after all, where the fuck ups are ironed out. Brilliant footage!

    It was on this tour that Brian destroyed his voice and he NEVER recovered. There is a DRAMATIC change in how he sounded from 1980 to 1984 (end of the tour) and then how he sounded after (recording of Fly on the Wall and beyond). The depth, the power and the range (chest voice) was fully intact until 1984 and then it just wasn't anymore (he began using a high pitched head voice nasally and more shallow falsetto scream).

    Don't worry about it; no one can. On the other hand, when you get to a video of an extremely popular band with only a few views, keep in mind that you're officially in fanboy territory at that point. When it comes to songs like these, only DEVOTED fans seek them out and you'll get flamed if you say anything that remotely resembles negativity.

    I'll never understand why Brian didn't get technique lessons. He can sing that there is no argument with, but his high range is completely forced. Breathing & exercise would have helped massively. Typical of a untrained singer. Great fuckin band though.

    Those here saying Brian couldn't hit the highs because he was just not capable are wrong. When he was in Geordie*spelling?* He hit those notes fine. Through this whole song he sounded like he had a frog stuck in his throat. Hungover maybe? lol Or just plain ole tired of rehearsing for the day.

    • @EV150
      @EV150 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I love Brian Johnson but you are wrong. He sounds like that all the time now. They kick ass live but he sounds like this every time they play. You can't sing the way he does every night and not destroy your vocal folds. Period. Any vocal coach or instructor that knows anything about good vocal technique will tell you the same thing. I love the guy, but his voice is totally fried. Sad but true.

      More than having a bad day... he's doing vocal parts on their records that are clearly out of his range and it sets him up for disaster on live performances. No wonder his voice sounds like Donald Duck these days (before anyone starts a flame war... I LOVE ACDC AND BRIAN JOHNSON).

    Brian is a bad ass, but Bon Scott was much better.
