AC/DC- For Those About To Rock [Live in Landover, MD, Dec. 1981] (Pro Shot)

[@gmanhirt8818]

malcom was once asked in an interview in a guitar world magazine why he doesnt play any leads in ac dc and his response was awesome. he said there is nothing better when you get those nights when your just locked in perfect with the bass and drums and you let the groove of the song carry your performance. there is nothing better than that..............thats malcolm......

[@Frip36]

That's what a rhythm guitarist SHOULD say.

[@blacksabbath1022]

Ac/dc has one of the best, scratch that...the best rhythm section I've ever heard, couple that with one of the greatest lead guitar players and two of the best vocalists they are without a doubt my favorite rock band of all time. I was 12 when ACDC live double disc came out and got my first guitar around that age. I would crank that in my stereo and have my amp in between the speakers. Playing a long with Let There Be Rock, Sin City, Heatseeker, FTATR, High Voltage etc..made me appreciate this band. They are so tight it could be a studio recording with some live songs going 10 minutes plus. Malcolm was a machine. When I first started playing with a live band I already felt 2 steps ahead, so much that I got annoyed the rest of the band would be off ever so slightly but they couldn't hear it lol. I still to this day jam a long with ac/dc just as much or more than playing with others.

[@ppeterson6407]

He has stated in other interviews when the band is really "cookin", there's nothing better, its better than sex. Now that is a man with a passion for music, and it is part of his soul.

[@timothya.olmeda7299]

[@the1gunslinger2008]

This was Brian Johnson about a year after he stepped in to fill Bon Scott's shoes after his passing. Although no one could do what Bon did, Brian Johnson emerged as the powerhouse that we did not know that we needed. The FTATR album is one of the most underrated albums of all time. Check the B-side on that album, more specifically the song "Spellbound". One of my favorites.

Well my son, let me explain. You see, this song and video came out in the early 80's when MTV was still in its infancy and VH1 didn't exist yet. Then, at some point in the future, another channel, the previously aforementioned VH1 came along and put together a collection of classic videos, slapped their logo in the corner and well....there you go. Those of us who are old enough know this video (and many others which may show up with a VH1 logo on them) is from MTV when it was still the great channel it was at the beginning.

When I was 11, my brother bought this record for me for Christmas a few weeks after it came out at the end of November in 1981.But my parents made him wrap it up and put it under the tree and we had to wait until Christmas. But one day they left somewhere and we open it up, dropped the needle and turned it up as loud as it could go. After listening to the whole thing we re-wrapped and put it back under the tree. Good times.

God I wish we could hear Brian’s voice better in the mix. He sounded absolutely legendary in ‘81, yet he’s so low in the mix here you can barely hear him.

Young people can't imagine what it was like to see this band in 81. They were so fucking loud your ears would ring for days. This was before every band played through the PA system. They literally had marshal stacks 30 to 40 feet high with the amps to support them. They are still the loudest band I've ever seen and I've probably seen over 200 concerts the last 30+ years. Angus was one of the first guys to use wireless and he was a total spaz on stage, spinning around on his back on stage while doing solos. You used to be allowed to smoke in stadiums and you couldn't see the other side from all the cigarette and pot smoke. It was mostly pot to be honest. Modern concerts don't even compare to this era. Yes I'm old, but I saw good hard core rock concerts live that you can't see today.

[@michaelhamann5000]

Saw them at The Cow Palace in San Francisco on this tour. When the cannons went off during this song and at the end, my ears honestly didn't stop ringing for over a week. I wasn't expecting them to be so loud. Now 43 years later I can still say this was the loudest concert I've ever attended. 5:54

Phil Rudd is just killing it back there on the skins. Great performance captured in Maryland. It was only two months later on February 22nd 1982 at the Fabulous Forum in Inglewood that I was fortunate that my older brother asked me to go see them live. The band was so tight, so freaking loud, and possessed me with their energy that from that point on (two weeks before my 14th birthday) until today I stayed a huge fan of theirs. It caused me to purchase a guitar and learn how to play it properly. They are the ultimate timekeepers of the music industry. Period. As for that night at the Forum, the band in the video looked the same. Brian Johnson wore the same outfit, red bandanna around his neck, sweatband, cap and Harley Davidson shirt. Our seats were mid section behind the stage on Malcolm’s side. But honestly, due to their stage design, you could still see them in action. Angus running up and down the ramps on either side, cannons firing off, and the Hells Bell. You could still see Malcolm and Cliff whenever they would approach the microphone to sing backup. The best though was when Brian would go back behind the stage from the sides where the Hockey glass walls were and wave back at us all back there. Always polite and considerate that guy was throughout his career. He often took smoke breaks and getting something to drink in the process. I still have ringing in my ears 41 years later. A badge of honor that I will never regret.

It's true, this is the original clip, live (no playback, it's in full concert), with Phil Rudd on drums. Not the one in Vevo which is with Simon Wright on drums

[@dchenkin02]

Better than 1983 version on Family Jewels.

I went to the Toronto For those About To Rock show it was my first ever Rock gig, my God did they deliver the tour program stated 55 000 watts of sound I was side stage reds at Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto, this song for me personally is one the greatest songs to hear live, my ears were ringing for more the a week

Brilliant stuff! All excellent. Phill Rudd's drumming is so brilliant. Never speeds up. Just grooves all the way.

[@JoseLuisPerazaOfficial]

Yes this is the original video for this song. This video would come on like clockwork every morning on MTV right before school!!! 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

Yeah this is the original vid I remember MTV showing back in the day. As I recall, they played the audio from the studio album instead of the "live". This performance is so tight it svncs perfectly. Thanks so much for posting this.
