What’s most impressive is that Brian never cheats. He doesn’t make the audience sing the whole chorus or back off on the hard notes. He always puts everything he’s got into the whole performance, which is why he’s still one of the most legendary frontmen ever in rock.
What I really love about Brian is he pulls off Screaming Crazy Frontman and Loveable Uncle all at the same damn time, and neither persona feels fake or forced. Just a genuine good bloke.
The story I like most is that when he went to audition before AC/DC the song he sang was Tina Turner's "Mountain High River Deep". Malcolm thought it was a bit funny but Brian said "Hey, I like that Song" and played it for him and that was that. He has no pretensions.
Back in the day, straight-laced me used to think of AC/DC as way to wild for me. LOL Now it it seems sooo tame and "fun" music. Yes, Brian is a very cool guy.
It takes some very special DNA to be that famous, that rich, that talented, that good at your chosen profession but yet so utterly likeable and humble. What a gift it's been to follow Brian Johnson from when he was ask to replace a legend to when he is a legend himself. That dude just thoroughly enjoys performing in front of a live audience!
Just a really personable dude. Buddy of mine lives in Sarasota, FL.. Has seen Brian hanging at a car repair shop playing music for the mechanics. Not sure how many celebrities would hang with blue collar folks like that. Salt of the earth.
I worked security in Spokane, WA back in the 80's, and I got to work the AC/DC concert when they did their Who Made Who Tour, and I was off to the left of the stage at the bottom of the stairs, and when they finished their set, they came down the stairs and right past me, and Brian said hello, and he shook my hand and invited me backstage!! One of the best memories I have working concert security, ever!!

Too many people: “AC/DC ISNT EVEN HARD TO PLAY!” Mistakes in first 10 seconds of song: Enough to know Angus is that man with the touch... a touch too much.
Looking at a lot of their songs on paper (4/4 time signatures, simple chord progressions, short riffs and straightforward bass lines) many would think that ACDC songs are easy. But there is one thing that you will never see in tabs that make their songs far from "easy" which is ATTITUDE. That alone branches off to other technical aspects of ACDC songs 🤘
@@ggonzy24 Its not the attitude its because they are rock and ROLL. The drummer here is a rock drummer not a rock n roll drummer. And the guitarist has a tone completely different to Angus/Malcolm.
@@mbz25 my friend, rock and roll IS the attitude I was talking about. It has nothing to do with angus's or malcolm's tone either, it doesn't factor into the difficulty of their songs
Saw Brian Johnson at Heathrow airport about 10 years ago, was nervous to ask for his autograph but tried it anyway, omg he couldn't be more obliging, asked me were I was from and took the time to ask after my wife and children,what a lovely person so down to earth
An AC/DC concert is similar to a Grateful Dead show. Lots of love, ones just harder than the other. Experiencing both crowds I can’t help but draw similarities. People just wanting to feel good, let loose and have fun.
Interestingly enough my feelings about AC/DC are very similar to my feelings about ice cream. It's great when I am in the mood, but that mood only strikes occasionally.
Billy Joel is right "that's how you do it" and that's Brian Johnson for sure. thanking all the band members. after giving the audience a fantastic performance. I have to say Brian Johnson is great friends with every musician in the music business. he and Billy Joel together is proof of that for sure.
I’m 32 years old and was brought up with AC/DC by my dad, I heard both Bon and Beano and they are worlds apart but that’s what makes them so special. Beano never tried to be Bon, he brought his own style and flair. It’s like 2 bands. I would have given anything to have seen Bon but have been blessed to see Beano on 3 occasions, seeing this video is a great example of why Brian has been so successful; his humility, his outstanding talent and his presence that renders him one of the greatest frontmen that rock n roll has ever and will ever see 🤘🏼🖤
Well, this is why ac dc is such an extraordinary band. They make it simple, they just use three cords and a basic rhythm section, but when others play their music you can see the difference.
Malcolm is absolutely missed look at some documentaries, he was the creator behind that band... Brian Johnson was talking about Malcom having him come down in to stage on a wrecking ball! apparently one time he was trying to get full fireworks in the stadium and they wouldn't allow it.. Malcolm wanted that stage blown up by the end of the concert! The crazy stuff Malcolm wanted to do on stage... Angus gives Malcolm full credit for founding the band.
Yeah, nobody can rip that out like Angus. In all fairness I'm sure that's a first rate guitar but I don't think it was designed with heavy metal in mind. Also the tempo was off by at least 20 bpm, probably to make it easier for the guitarist.
I agree with everything written to this comment. One video i like is Brian Johnson with the band Muse playing Back in Black. Muse did well backing Brian. There is a difference still. But they did really well. I don't even know Muse other than their name. Don't know their music lol
Ah, come on lads, people on here complaining about a pop singer's band not being as good as Angus Young, that's not what they were trying to do, the fact that Billy Joel had Brian Johnson on stage with his band, and if you notice, Billy just let him do his thing and didn't make it about Billy Joel having Brian Johnson on stage, respect to Billy Joel.
Any kid could play the lead note for note, I can, easy. But Brian Johnson sang just like in the band, he was on key for the high notes, so props to him.

As an aussie and major ACDC fan, I'm really happy with this bands interpretation of the great rock song...huge points..!!!! Great to listen to and see. Well done.
The mystery of AC/DC always confounds me. On paper it is pure simplicity, three chords and no frills. Yet no-one else can ever come close to reproducing that sound. Even great bands like this one (or the Foo Fighters) can't duplicate it.
Very true, I’ve heard the same three chord crap thing my whole life agree 100% ! Not to mention angus head banging, duck walking, spinning around on the floor, jumping off Marshall stacks in his younger years & being carried around the concert venue on someone’s shoulders (LMAO) 😂
@@stevenmckee6134 That's true, as much as he moves around on stage they would have to have pedals placed everywhere. or have some sort of controls he could carry with him. and it's pretty obvious he didn't do that.
The thing is you can steal they're intellectual/music work but the soul/feeling/emotion belongs to the creators. I trully believe that an original band/work can not be replicated. Good point my friend. If you're a christian, happy easter. If not, have a great fucking sunday! Peace.
Brian has to be one of the coolest guys in rock, always funny, always approachable. Recorded one of the best selling rock albums ever and still humble.
i can sincerely say: I love that guy. Brian, you seem to be such a lovely human being (highly recommend him interviewing other rockstars in "a life on the road"). your energy shines thru and ... first seeing you back in 1995 performing live and many times over the years: to me you are the best live vocal performer. ❤❤❤ thank you for the great time!

I remember talking to Brian in a club in Newcastle i think about 1980,he was in a local band named Geordie then.he was saying he was of to London for a job with a famous band,he wouldn’t say who,The rest is history.
Amazing absolutely incredible thank you to brian johnson great person very humble this is a few years old now it never gets old brian still looks fabulous for his age ❤❤❤❤❤
The fact that he still hits the notes at 3:52 which he usually doesn’t live is amazing he’s still got it ! Love these two . I was lucky to see ACDC with Brian Johnson before his hearing issue and it was probably the best concert I’ve ever been to ! God bless these two legends
These people showed up for a Billy Joel show and got a nice bonus performance out of it. Looks like they were havin fun and paid Brian and the band the respect they deserve during and after the song. What is it that all 3 of you (the “cool guys” who’ve commented so far) expected here? What wasn’t stereotypically cool enough for you? Expect a mosh pit from Billy Joel fans? 🙄
Brian Johnson is better than ever, what they did for his hearing loss has not only made it so he could come back and be the fabulous front man for AC/DC again. but it's also made him an even better performer. since he's been able to come back AC/DC has made an AWESOME new album. and Brian has been collaborating with other musicians if not to perform with them. but to have interviews/conversations with them. he already checked out a motorcycle collection that Billy Joel has. and he talked with Robert Plant. and visited Dolly Parton in her dressing room and others. after the problem with his hearing he has been Making up for lost time. and totally enjoying himself he is basically getting a second chance and he's not wasting it. this same thing is what all the members of AC/DC have experienced. facing adversity and getting though it. that is one of the many things that make AC/DC such a great group.
This man is a bloody legend. No other words required. I beg you to see ACDC live. I have. Twice. Quite simply the best rock and roll band in the business. Without comparison. Legends all. Now check out Brian and Dolly Parton. Both legends. Their trailer show made me laugh my nuts off. Cheers from Hampshire.
Brian Johnson if you're reading this back in Black was the first album I think I was 11 10 I'm sure you guys have heard this before but your music has inspired me when I was down to get up and move recently after a pretty successful life I found myself having to come back again and listening to back in Black and reaching back and hearing all the old stuff and some of the new music just totally changed my mental framework and got me to push. God bless you and Angus and the rest of the gang . It means so much. Thank you for staying true to who you guys always have been. New album is awesome too by the way 🙂 PS the new TV series it's fantastic hope you do another season
Brian Johnson looks like the genuine lovable person where no matter his status and how small, simple the gift you bring will be accepted, welcomed and appreciated like a person that is on a regular hard working job, cannot afford much and financially near poverty line.
Idk how I ended up here. Not a a billy fan but I noticed how happy Bryan looks on stage. I got to appreciate the dude still performs like hes tryna impress people after 40 years and a singing these songs a gazillion times. Them little ac/dc dudes are anomalies for sure lol
Not a great solo, but it wasn't that bad. Poor guy probably only got a day or so to practice it. And to be fair... Brian's regular lead guitarist has over 40 years of practice and experience. ;)
These 2 icons are sounding absolutely amazing and awesome 🎉🎉. They just performed absolutely fantastic together 🎉🎉. They both have respect for each other.They are putting on a fantastic show 🎉🎉
My first ACDC concert was in 1975 during our school lunch break when ACDC performed at JJ Cahill Memorial High School in Mascot Sydney Australia . And still loving their music in 2022 RIP Malcolm
As a young guitarist you practice and dream of playing at a gig .. FWD 20 yrs you playing in Billy Joe's band with Brian Johnson singing your fave song!! Dreams do come true!
I know this only a guest appearance by Brian Johnson at a Billy Joel concert. I know there is lots of guitar mistakes. Nobody will ever be able to play AC/DC songs like Angus Young. But just look at the crowd rocking to the song. Every one is singing and dancing!!!!! It just goes to show how much AC/DC is loved by anyone who loves rock and roll!
I am awestruck at Tommys variations in the solo keeping true and exact in certain places and then in other places just freakin inventing left and freakin right beautiful magnifico

It's incredible that Brian isn't pitching any of those songs down, after 40 years of singing them.
Isn't pitching down? He lost his voice after the 1991 razors edge tour
ACDC has been pitching songs down for a long time now.
He had a great run though
@@Mr_Ronok He didn't on that performance. The record is in G and he sang it in G with Billy's band.
Well when you are willing to just miss notes and bring the volume down so that backup singers are louder than you it's easy.

Awesome. I wasn't a big Billy Joel fan until decades later. But all the music comes together. It's all good. I am a Billy Joel fan as well as AC/DC.
2:48 That dude is wondering why the cab driver is on stage.
LMFAO !! I had to go back and freeze frame him.....yep, he looks like he has no idea whatsoever who Brian Johnson is.
😂😂👍🏼
lol !! he's sort of clapping and smiling like when you go to a concert and the band plays a song you've never heard before...😂
So funny 😆.... Brian can blend in anywhere . A laid back dude from northern England 🏴
Yep .... kind of reminiscent of Andy Capp .... for those who remember!
This man is a bloody legend. No other words required. I beg you to see ACDC live. I have. Twice. Quite simply the best rock and roll band in the business. Without comparison. Legends all. Now check out Brian and Dolly Parton. Both legends. Their trailer show made me laugh my nuts off. Cheers from Hampshire.
Even with the lower tempo this rocks and Brians vocals blossom with the added space in the measures. Well Done.
Wow two of my idols growing up on same stage is awesome
Brian Johnson if you're reading this back in Black was the first album I think I was 11 10 I'm sure you guys have heard this before but your music has inspired me when I was down to get up and move recently after a pretty successful life I found myself having to come back again and listening to back in Black and reaching back and hearing all the old stuff and some of the new music just totally changed my mental framework and got me to push. God bless you and Angus and the rest of the gang . It means so much. Thank you for staying true to who you guys always have been. New album is awesome too by the way 🙂
PS the new TV series it's fantastic hope you do another season
Two classic legends. Amazing! 🤘
One of the best songs ever written. You can’t help but sing along to it… at the top of your voice ❤️
Brian's happiness is contagious
So glad i found this! What a unique combo!
Two legends for a legendary song
Makes you appreciate the magic of the energy that is Angus. Valiant effort lads.
Brian looks like he just has so much fun on stage.
What a sweet man. Not a stiff bone or attitude in his body!
Brian Johnson looks like the genuine lovable person where no matter his status and how small, simple the gift you bring will be accepted, welcomed and appreciated like a person that is on a regular hard working job, cannot afford much and financially near poverty line.
Angus ... We need ya mate ... 😎
This was awesome !!! That guitarist is awesome !!!
Brian is such a cool dude! Total class act & nice guy who also kicks ass!
Idk how I ended up here. Not a a billy fan but I noticed how happy Bryan looks on stage. I got to appreciate the dude still performs like hes tryna impress people after 40 years and a singing these songs a gazillion times. Them little ac/dc dudes are anomalies for sure lol
Remember, standard tuning people. Brian wasn’t even singing in standard in the ACDC concerts at this time. Sounds amazing!
If you wanna call that tuning... guitar was whack out...
What you do for money.
is like a E 1/4 sharp tuning. I like that sound tho. sucks to keep tuning for every song on them old records but fun to play.
I am 74 and in my younger days maybe 1970's saw 'Geordie' at the Greyhound pub' Fulham Palace Road, London. Absolutely stunning!
This was the moment for Billy Joel's guitar player to really shine.........and he shit the bed
Hahaha 😂
Chicken scratching
Not a great solo, but it wasn't that bad. Poor guy probably only got a day or so to practice it. And to be fair... Brian's regular lead guitarist has over 40 years of practice and experience. ;)
Guitar player is atrocious
These 2 icons are sounding absolutely amazing and awesome 🎉🎉. They just performed absolutely fantastic together 🎉🎉. They both have respect for each other.They are putting on a fantastic show 🎉🎉
You would think that Billy Joel's guitar player would be able to figure out how to play 'You shook me all night long' properly.
Yes, I was a bit bummed by that myself. Not enough sparks flying there.
Or even tune the guitar....
The solo hurt my ears.
Guitar is painfully out of tune
@@composerdave68 it's a les Paul, probably was in tune 2 mins before he played it. Isn't in same league as Angus but that's no surprise really
That IS how you do it! LOVE BRIAN JOHNSON!! He Shook hands with EVERYONE !!
Love it!!! Just a great couple of guys jamming!!
My first ACDC concert was in 1975 during our school lunch break when ACDC performed at JJ Cahill Memorial High School in Mascot Sydney Australia .
And still loving their music in 2022
RIP Malcolm
The pride of Newcastle !!!!!!!!!!
Impressive, Brian is more than 70 years old, and still a great singer, and he still has fun on stage, amazing🔥🔥🔥
One of the legends. Not even his audience but he had them rocking in like 1 min
What!
As a young guitarist you practice and dream of playing at a gig
.. FWD 20 yrs you playing in Billy Joe's band with Brian Johnson singing your fave song!! Dreams do come true!
You forgot to say, Uptown girl shook me all nite long. We didn't start the FIRE💥
FIRE💥 FIRE💥 Weeeeee Saluuuuute Yoooooou
I love this song and all of you guys!!!! I listen to it all days!!!
Tune that damn guitar! Or change the fingering of the riff ffs!
Yeah, he butchered not only the solo, but also the intro. And not to mention how crappy his tone was. 🤦♂️
Dude - yes. That was brutal...this is a pro playing with Billy Joel? Wow.
@@perpetualbystander4516 Agree. Tone is hideous. But playing like that on a top level act is unforgivable...
@@jburdsinfuse Indeed. Hard to believe!
Yeah - Ouch... heard a hundred bar bands with better setup and execution on this classic. BUT Brian made it worth the listen!
Now that's pairing I wouldn't have thought of, but it works!
I know this only a guest appearance by Brian Johnson at a Billy Joel concert. I know there is lots of guitar mistakes. Nobody will ever be able to play AC/DC songs like Angus Young. But just look at the crowd rocking to the song. Every one is singing and dancing!!!!! It just goes to show how much AC/DC is loved by anyone who loves rock and roll!
One of his best performances sounds fantastic
He is one of the greatest front men for one of the greatest rock bands.
I am awestruck at Tommys variations in the solo
keeping true and exact in certain places
and then in other places just freakin inventing left and freakin right
beautiful
magnifico
He seems so down to earth and humble.

Saw them twice once with Bon Scott and Brian Johnson. So glad that I had that opportunity! Too bad Angus couldn't have been on this stage.
