Axl confirmed as new singer for AC/DC tour (June 1, 2016: US dates announced)

[C0ma]

The crowd is fucking dead for real...omfg...front seats are embarassing... ... Apart form the 60-70 years old, the others could fake a jump here and there at least

I for the life of me do not understand this obsession with the crowd having to jump up and down... I'm in my late 30's so not exactly 60-70 and I am there to enjoy listening to and watching the show not bouncing up and down and off the person next to me for 2 and half hours.

[GnR-NOW]

What time did they go on and the show end?

they started around 835

Thanks

it's a 30-50 year old crowd in greensboro north carolina. Us crowds are way different and venues have seating on the floors so you cant really do much but stand there

(Gypsy Note:  great video.  guitars kind of drowned Axl out in the audio a bit.  Since this is the first time since 1982 that AC/DC has done this song live, IMO Axl seemed to be very focused on "just" singing the song.  Can't wait to see what he does with it when everyone is more comfortable onstage together.)

I'm with you. I'm in my 30s, have been going to rock shows since I was 5 years old and have never at any point being a mosher. I don't see anything wrong with that crowd at all. They're attentive (awestruck even), clearly enjoying it and no one's getting hurt.

What blows my mind is how much better Axl is sounding with these guys than with Guns - and don't get me wrong, he's not sounding bad with Guns by any means. There's just that killer instinct there and I can only think it's because he's singing songs he actually hasn't already performed to death and has to engage with. If only there were some new Guns songs for him to sink his teeth into. But que sera sera.

It's just someone from a foreign market being critical in an attempt at being "chic".. If I wanted to go jump and down for 2 hours I'd buy a pogo stick or a jackhammer..

I'm glad the official AC/DC twitter/social media finally put out something with Axl (albeit only 40 seconds).

Watching the periscopes, there are some AC/DC fans who apparently feel obligated to criticize Axl's performance like it will somehow miraculously cure Brian's hearing/health issues.  As ignorant as those fans are, I can sort of understand their misguided allegiance to Brian. I'm sure both AC/DC and GNR fans wish Brian good health and the best in everything. And there are certainly an equal amount of Axl enthusiasts (at least on periscope) to counteract the negative comments.

The really weird thing IMO is that DURING the show last night, the official AC/DC twitter decided the best way to squelch this Axl fans vs Brian fans battle was to post FULL song youtube videos featuring Bon Scott!!!

Like seriously official AC/DC twitter.... WTF??

[GazT]

Man, that looked like a killer gig and with LIVE WIRE in the set... bloody magic!!!     

Would be cool if Axl would put his old Royal Stuart kilt on and sing "It's A Long Way to the Top."...  but i suppose that song's too sacred for Axl or even Brian to touch.

[D-GenerationX]

Man, he really nails 'Thunderstruck', doesn't he?

who is saying anything about crowd surfing or jumping up and down?

Why do people not dance more or at least move to the beat?  That's fun.  Standing, staring and not moving is for the twits

It would be nice if they could upload a full song here and there, like they did with Rock or Bust for Axl's first show. If they're planning a Blu-Ray or something though, I can forgive it.

Anyway, here's another official video, this time with Back in Black and a little bit of Shook Me (and praise for Axl from concertgoers).

Hahaha I must agree with you on that, it is almost funny. The show is fucking awesome though.

Very proud of Axl for what he's been doing for AC/DC. It's history in front of us.

[LIGuns]

If I'm up front I get caught up I. The moment and don't have a voice for the next couple of days, otherwise I'm laid back just enjoying the show..

[LIGuns]

Just noticed what appeared to be a Hookers and Blow t-shirt at the 54 second mark!!

[Dr. Blutarsky]

I hope they continue this in some form after this tour ends. Axl does these songs great justice.

But I'm not sure what you'd call it. With Cliff leaving after the tour what really is left of AC/DC? I say give Tommy a call and see if he wants to play bass

I suspect Cliff leaving would not affect ticket sales all too much as long as Angus and Axl are there.
