AC/DC Concert Review August 14, 2009

Last Friday night we saw AC/DC at the United Center. Our seats were up in the 300 level and off to the left the side as you face the stage. We have seen them before from the main floor, but liked our seat location up high. They are touring behind their new album which came out last fall. They did 5 songs from it, which was about 3 too many. From the Bon Scott era, they did: Hell Ain’t a Bad Place to Be, Rosie, The Jack, Highway, TNT, and Dirty Deeds. My pal Spencer asked me to list my top ten AC/DC songs (not easy to do) and I came up with only two from the Brian Johnson era: Shoot to Trill and Rock and Roll Ain’t Noise Pollution. Don’t get me wrong - Brian is great and was/is the perfect addition to the band back then. Most of those earlier songs are just better than most of the ones since Back in Black (above) came out.
