Hmmm, glad I sold my tickets now!
Was thinking about getting a last minute one for Dublin but might just give it a miss!
Maybe Malcolm leaving has taken away the magic??
I've heard that Malcolm was the one who kept everybody in line, especially his brother, so you could be on something there.Was thinking about getting a last minute one for Dublin but might just give it a miss!

Was down at hampden gig last weekend. While it was a great show, it seemed like it was absolutely blown out of the water by the black ice tour. Things like the intro video with the train crashing through the stage, extra video for all the songs, the last tour just seemed like a much 'bigger' show.

Well, AC/DC last night at Hampden Park in Glasgow, and I have to say...I was a little disappointed. I have loads of AC/DC albums but I'd never seen them in concert before;.

Your while review really just underlines to me that you just don't get AC/DC.
They've never had the mid song rapport of American bands, they come on, do their stuff and get off - not even a big group bow at the end.
I've seen them numerous times since 1979 and every show has been, virtually, done to the same recipe.
Angus has always said that this is their thing, and I'm quite shocked you expected anything else.
I purposely didn't get tickets for this tour as they are just not the same (No Malcolm AND Phil is no AC/DC to me) - I don't want the memories I have of them to be sullied by this tour. The Black Ice tour a few years ago was the beginning of the decline (it was sorry to see Angus finally showing his age), so I definitely didn't want to see any more.
I'm sorry you're disappointed - it's just a shame you didn't see them 20 odd years ago, you would have written an entirely different review then.
Just got back home from Wembley and I am in awe of what I just witnessed earlier. Seen AC/DC last in 96' on the Ballbreaker tour and they were brilliant then, nearly 20yrs on and in their 60's last nights show was truly immense, pure power and so much raw energy. Roll on the next time if they tour again

You may managed to get better tickets than me! You couldn't see a great deal from up in the stands. Sound quality didn't seem brilliant either. Great gig but I wish they'd play some smaller places instead. Wembley isn't the best IMHO. I can see why they do play it though to be fair, from a financial point of view.
Possibly the last time they'll tour, who knows. Glad we went though even if everything wasn't perfect.
