Vacation Day 2.5 - AC/DC

Once again, a brilliant show! I met my friend Errol outside of the arena and we took our seats. This time, I was quite high up and over the side of the stage, so in a strange way, we still felt relatively close to the action, as it was all happening directly underneath us. And as you would expect, hearing the band was not an issue!

The show was a carbon copy of the other two shows I saw this tour but was still fresh and intense. The best thing about AC/DC is they deliver every song like the audience is hearing it for the first time. Plenty of fist pumping; pointing; flipping the "devils horns"; screaming; singing and chanting made for a great evening.

Now I guess I am done with them for this time around. Three shows in three months was a great mix - and all 3 shows had their good points. The crowd this time was the most intense of all of the shows, with people still screaming as we were walking out of the arena. Hopefully they swing back through the USA after they tear up the rest of the world, as they have done on their last two tours. You have to think that this will be their last tour, considering Brian is now 61...but I am still holding out hope that they find a way to continue for a few years yet.
