Having a career in radio (my past), gives you ample opportunity to see lots of live shows and just about any and every artist you would ever want to see. From Britney to Justin, to Sir Paul McCartney to the Stones - I've just about seen it all.
Having said that... there are only 2 bands left on my list that I would love to see.
1. AC/DC
2. Led Zepplin
Tuesday night, for my birthday, Brian offered me the chance to knock one of those off my list!
AC/DC
When you are seeing such mammoth bands, you just never know what to expect. It's either going to be REALLY bad (hello, Motley Crue) or perma-grin good. I'm happy to report, from their incredible entrance (a gigantic train engine pulling out on stage with tracks that shot out fire) to their finale of "For those about to Rock" with 6 REAL cannons, we were grinning from ear to ear. The crowd was actually louder than the band and Brian Johnson can still scream out those notes. Angus and his duck walk were incredible.... until he did the strip tease.... I don't know if you've ever seen a 60+ year old guy in a school uniform take off his clothes from his shiny bald head to his AC/DC boxers.... I was a little nauseated. The years have not been kind.
It was a great night. If there was an award for best use of props and best rock entrance, they would get it. And they can still melt some faces. :)
