Rudd's drumming is tight... Unrushed and heavy hitting. Slade is fantastic in his own right, but Rudd is just the perfect drummer for this band.

[@Brain4Zombie]

Yeah, but I prefer Slade's drumming at this song over Rudd's.

[@grep67]

LEGEND!

[@tfrost33elkhunter]

The best and only drummer for AC/DC in my opinion. He makes the songs more powerful!

[@austonthebomb3162]

Paul Roberts rock n roll ain’t noise pollution would be a great closing song

[@janh8576]

It‘s the perfect song for the end

[@YouTube-tied]

@@austonthebomb3162 I agree. For Those...is fucking awesome but I always thought they should have opened their shows with it. Then chosen another song to close with. They've always had the budget for big pyro so they could always go big.

[@laurinollitaneli]

This is a great example of Cliff Williams' quality and genius; indispensable in the band's "engine room" as one of its driving forces while being almost unnoticeable, even when you focus on his playing. At the same time, listen to the runs he delivers from 4:55 onwards. Tasty as can be, still barely noticeable, while preserving the rhythm and providing the backdrop against which Angus' lead can stand out. Masterclass.

[@blackinblue11]

Yes sir! Silent water scrapes the hills, my friend:) Gotta love that guy

[@jessegunn2033]

Taneli Laurinolli agree Cliffs badass

[@dupersuper6516]

Listen to his runs on shoot to thrill in rio 85 where they're most apparent, he's been sliding those under us this whole time

[@enigma375]

@@dupersuper6516 Took your advice and gave it a listen. I wish his bass was always that high in the mix! Sounded great.

[@matthewtayloryowieresearch1912]

Yes indeed, Taneli! Guys, it really is this simple... Malcolm, Cliff & Phil Rudd = The best rhythm section in rock n' roll... ever.

[@pauloteixeira763]

Just let these guys enjoy retirement. They did so much... just let them sit on a white sand beach enjoying a drink, far away from frantic environments, crazy headbangers , moshes and insanely loud systems.

[@pauloteixeira763]

***** I like AC DC. I do. probably for allot more time than you. But I love other bands also. And even other music styles. Legends really stay forever but I hate great musicians "representing themselves". An old man on speed trying to act like a teen and an inflated douche singing sitting down is not my idea of a rock concert. I saw a few good AC DC concerts and this tour is Angus DC, not the same..I don´t want to insult nobody... but it´s the truth.

[@pedroblabla7734]

would you still pay to see them?.peace

[@ManCrew]

Malcolm was a verified guitar genius. This is the ACDC that I grew up with. I have never forgotten the 81 concert even though I was front row, upper level, and as far back as possible.

[@rockdinosaur666]

Phil Rudd is a powerhouse on this-straightforward beat but knocks the shit out of those drums.

[@rasmuspetersen6803]

At best it’s pedestrian...technically a highschool drummer would perform better, but he fits AC/DC when they became unambitious and slowed down and just needed a guy who could count to 4 in repeat. Otherwise they would have kept Slade

[@MarkanVaran7]

@@rasmuspetersen6803 Phil is way better. He has THE GROOVE, Slade doesn't! Still love Slade though.

[@ThePsychedelicCinema]

@@rasmuspetersen6803 Lmao dumb. Phil has such a tight metronome rhythm. He's almost like a Malcolm on the drums, easy to play but so damn hard to replicate.

[@rasmuspetersen6803]

@@ThePsychedelicCinema Lmao dumb...I like your rhetoric! Return when you actually know how to initiate a proper conversation with due respect for other people.

[@Tiberius_Productions]

Rasmus Petersen Phil has still got it in my opinion. He has so much groove, and a high school drummer can “play” the beat, but they can’t PLAY it with the same focused groove that Phil has. High school drummers would try to show off all over it and add some unnecessary fills because they don’t yet understand the beat isn’t just simple, it has a very important groove that is difficult to replicate. Chris is also great imo tho just not as great at groove as Phil.

[@The.Crawling.Chaos.]

Best Live Band in the world! and yes, Those cannons will push in your ear drums 😃 🤘🤘🤘

[@Violetplayzok]

Yep I couldn't hear properly for 3 days after seeing them live lol

[@axelbartmoss8045]

I'm so happy when I think I had the chance to see that! It's wasn't the Plaza de Toros though. I saw the exact same show but in France, in Lyon city. A fantastic memory. Hard to prevent the tears to pour when I think about it; especially when looking at videos like this one. So many generations were there from children to old ones. All united for the holy love of ACDC. Thank you ACDC, I salute you.

[@MrMasseMonster]

the last part when the song truly kicks in, thats the most epic thing ive seen in my whole life. seeing the crowd jump like fucking rabbits screaming their lungs off. I salute you ACDC for providing a meaning to rock

[@SuperPinkFloyd92]

That's if you're actually ABLE to get tickets! Seriously, they've made their money. They should go out on one BANGING tour for 2 years hitting as many spots as they can so everyone can see them rock the fuck out one last time. I know I would! I got to see Motörhead before Lemmy passed away but i'd die to see these guys. Love them.

Ah, yes, AC/DC. This band, always calling their music "Rock N' Roll" makes me so happy to be alive at the same time as these guys. Even though you could say their music is obviously Hard Rock, it gives you the spirit and vibe of Rock N Roll. God bless Brian's voice. I believe that Bon Scott's soul is resting somewhere inside Brian's body, letting him bewitch the crowd whenever he pleases. Bless AC/DC. Thank you for making 2017 full of Rock N' Roll. I love you. Malcolm may have left us but he will never die for real. He's here, playing rhythm riffs for Angus all the time.
