crazymanmichael Although nearly half a million fans turned out at Downsview in Toronto in 2003 to see the headlining act -- The Rolling Stones -- all anyone talked about after the show was AC/DC, and how they pretty much blew all the other acts off the stage. That's got to tell you SOMETHING, and this DVD goes a long way toward explaining why that was so: it certainly shows the Thunder From Down Under at their hard-rocking best. Angus Young is (as always) a treat to watch. Not only is his guitar technique almost supernaturally skillful, his whole "slightly whacko" schick (e.g. his "seizure" during that extended guitar solo) is just so entertaining! And the sound... ohmygoodness. You crank up the Dolby 5.1 on a good sound system and you'll FEEL it in your gut, that's a personal guarantee. Oh yes, this is the way concerts SHOULD be recorded. (And isn't it great they performed Jailbreak? That's a kick-ass AC/DC classic that doesn't get anywhere NEAR enough air-play, in my opinion.) I think my only complaint about this concert is that a lot of Brian Johnson's between-song banter seems to me to be awfully forced and insincere. But hey, a guy that can sing like that doesn't NEED to do a lot of talking...
riddler_1138-3 I have the deluxe Live Album of the same concert and I watched this and was greatly saddened to see that the Live version of Razor's Edge was NOT included on the DVD.I was crushed but overall, one of the best concerts I have ever seen. You can feel the audience's reactions the best during the opening of Thunderstruck.Anghus Young plays the true axe-man role here and you can just see his seemingly endless energy here over and over again during every song! Amazing performance overall!10/10
otisfirefly2001 This concer is probably one of the best to be released on DVD!The sound quality is fantastic. Each song comes through with great clarity.You get to see Angus run a full marathon from one side of the stage to the other. He kicks out a solo for each of the songs, His solo on Jalibreak is probably one of the best! The set list is very good consisting of all their great songs.SET LIST:THUNDERSTRUCKSHOOT TO THRILLBACK IN BLACKHELL AIN'T A BAD PLACE TO BEHEATSEEKERFIRE YOUR GUNSJAILBREAKTHE JACKDIRTY DEEDS DONE DIRT CHEAPMONEYTALKSHELLS BELLSHIGH VOLTAGEWHOLE LOTTA ROSIEYOU SHOOK ME ALL NIGHT LONGT.N.T.LET THERE BE ROCKHIGHWAY TO HELLFOR THOSE ABOUT TO ROCK (WE SALUTE YOU)I would strongly recommend this video to any AC/DC fan who does not have it. I would also recommend it for any new AC/DC fan who has just gotten into listening to the band.
eshmo2002 I've had the DVD for awhile and watched it several times on a 46" screen, and it was great. Now, I have a 70" Sony and with the accompanying Bose system, it's as if I were at Donington. The live version of "High Voltage" is one of the truly underrated hard rock songs of all time. "Hells Bells," "Thunderstruck," "Highway to Hell" are awesome.The movie shows how dynamic Brian Johnson's voice was in 1991.Angus puts on a great show, and Chris Slade's drum work is as good as it gets. This should be a must for any AC DC fan.
