So ended up seeing Pearl Jam at Jones Beach on Weds & Thurs, and then AC/DC at the Garden on Friday. And yes…AC/DC doesn’t have any “ballads”, so I didn’t sit down once!

He said that his warm-up routine consisted of screaming as hard/loud as he could into a towel for 45 minutes and chain-smoking a pack of cigarettes. That sounds about right...

    AC/DC... I've loved this song... I've loved this whole album, "Back in Black" since I got it (my first "adult" album lol) way back in 1980.
    What can I say about AC/DC ? Angus Young obviously made a deal with the devil to absolutely master his guitar and even though they are a bunch of lads who like a little drink and like a little fight and like a little rock and roll, they are absolute Rock and Roll masters !
    I mean Brian Johnson has a voice like a two-stroke chainsaw but it just freaking WORKS with the music. Just like no one can say that Bon Scott had a fantastic voice, but it just freaking WORKED with the music !

    Brian's voice has definitely deteriorated over the years. But when he was in his prime, I think he had the greatest rock voice of all time. I would put him up against anyone you want to throw out there. I've never heard a voice like his. It's both shrill and gravely at the same time. Everyone else is either one or the other, but he was both. It's like he gargles with razor blades! He was an absolute beast back then!!!

    This was Brian's voice and lyrics at their absolute best - annunciation is most clear - later albums don't have the consistency this album did all around (reasons/theories aside).
    I began listening to AC/DC in 1978 as a 10 yo. Bon Scott was king and when he died (1980) following the release and tour of Highway to Hell (1979), it was inconceivable that anyone could take his place. Back in Black was nearly unbelievable and the new band formation's best effort. Sadly AC/DC would never top their freshman showing.
    However, Bon Scott's album's were repeatedly gutsy and brilliant with H2H being the crowning jewel.
    Please, Darling Rebecca, give Bon's singing a listen: Highway to Hell; Let There Be Rock; Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap; High Voltage, etc.
    Quick note: only Bon Scott, brothers Malcolm and Angus Young were born and raised their early years in Scotland before emigrating to Australia. All other band members are either English, with Phil Rudd being the sole Australian.
