AC/DC - Whole Lotta Rosie (1979 Paris) | Reaction

[@ITNerd1970]

I've been an AC/DC fan my whole life! I first heard them when I was about 8 years old on the Midnight Special and have been a HUGE fan ever since. RIP Bon Scott, and thank GOD they found Brian Johnson when they did! I have had a lifetime of AC/DC and my life would not have been the same without them!

[@thewintergardener2873]

It was kind of prophetic that Bon Scott kind of appointed his own successor ... He had seen Brian Johnson perform in a band called Geordie, and told his AC/DC bandmates how Brian was an incredible rock singer. ..

[@MartinaBabic-es6bz]

yeah, Brian was jackpot for them after Bon Scott...love them both...we have era of Bon and era of Brian...they have simular voices

[@edb6690]

Got to see AC/DC in 1978, can't tell you how great they were, it was much more than great. RIP Malcom, Bon.

[@stuartdear1187]

Saw them in 1980 on the 'Highway to Hell' Tour at Hammersmith Odeon. Seen a lot of bands before and since but that night was something special.

[@mrbaddog4749]

Watching you smile and be mesmerized by Angus Young was such a treat. Angus has been my favorite guitarist/entertainer for over 40 years ( even have a tattoo of Angus ). Hope to see more of that smile while reacting to AC/DC.

[@davidzornes6863]

You will see Rosie at the concert at 'The River Plate" concert, with the new singer ,Bryan Johnson. In 1978, I was shoehorning a V=8 motor in my little 71 Gremlin, HOT SUMMER DAY,,,, all of a sudden my cousin slide in my driveway side ways in his 74 red Vette, and yelled ' Hey ! Zoro ,,, ya wanna go see Cheap Trick and AC/DC , NOW ? i threw down the wrench, hopped in , he handed me a cold brew, and burned rubber . Wow what a time to be alive. GREAT BANDS ALL THE TIME PLAYING THEIR HEARTS OUT ! I'm 69 now. still listen to the rock of the 60s, 70s, and 80s, Merry Christmas !

[@nikkireviews]

Sounds like a fun time! 😁 Merry Christmas to you too, and a happy new year! 🎉

That story ruled!

[@gordonallen7638]

i seen Ac/dc before they became famous in a pub in Sydney not a big place and Angus ran wild through the crowd and i was hooked. And not long after that i meet bonn and Angus at a party. Then they took Auz by storm

[@nikkireviews]

Oh man that's awesome. 😁

[@markhill9275]

Sport, i saw them at StAlbans school hall, well before they were even huge in Aus. Saw them a few times in Pubs, The Croc, Bombay Rock. Pretty wild nights!

[@paulorobertomariano4821]

Bon Scott, I miss seeing him on stage R.I.P. too young, he left us. a legion of his fans

[@billc.5861]

First time seeing AC/DC was 1978 at the Oakland Coliseum , they were the opening act for a “Day on the Green” concert. They were followed by VH - Pat Travers - Foreigner - Aerosmith. Fast forward to about 10 years ago and one of my adult kids asked if I wanna go see AC/DC at the Oakland Arena (sits next to the Coliseum) I said absolutely - it was a blast. Enjoy the show

[@nikkireviews]

Oh wow, that's awesome that you could see them again and so close to where you saw them the first time. Sounds like an amazing memory. 😊

[@billc.5861]

Hello , it was fun being there with my son

[@jasonthompson3443]

Hi Nikki. You should check out their video for the song "Bad Boy Boogie". I don`t remember the year it was done, but it was in a small venue. The crowd was packed in so tight they were probably duct taping the walls to keep them from bursting. Amazing show, excellent song!

[@enemde3025]

BON SCOTT is the original AND BEST singer !! R.I.P BON .🎤🎸

[@SteveHughesOfficial]

Yes it’s true. I played in bands in the 80s and 90s in AUSTRALIA. and on one tour we had an ex AC/DC roadie on our crew. He told me the story of Rosie when he was touring with AC/DC in Tasmania in the 70s. He was one of Bon Scott’s best friends and even showed us letter Bon had written him when they did their first European tours. Classic stuff.

[@RealJDGaming]

Key thing to watch that’s interesting is when Angus has a problem with his guitar and needs to change it, the change is almost seamless in the sound of the music because Malcolm - the guy to the left of the drums (via our POV aka the drummer’s right) - Angus’ (lead guitarist)’s brother was so good a guitarist that he was able to fill in for Angus whenever a problem would arise all while keeping the rhythm which is what a rhythm guitarist’s job is - to keep the rhythm of the song - basically the background guitar. If you were to watch their live performance of You Shook me all Night Long live 1996 at the Plaza Toros de las Ventas, you’ll see that just before Brian starts singing, Angus snaps a string and has to change his guitar and Malcolm essentially plays lead until Angus changes his guitar which coincidentally happened to be when Malcolm would naturally enter the song anyway. He was so skilled and so smart and a HUGE loss in the musical world. Losing him in 2017 forever altered their sound.

[@ImperialRadioYT]

AMAZING COMMENT. I've reference that exact same thing so many times, and so many people don't notice. Watch Mal "wake up" on that one, catching it I'd say, before Angus. Always in control, always leading the band, always keeping things together. The heart, soul, engine room, and true high voltage of AC/DC

[@PatriotPaul-dh1vh]

I watched angus fall off of the speakers, hits the stage and you hear the bang thru the speaker and he gets up and never misses a beat. He was electricuted in this concert

[@loufrost824]

For sure! 🎸

[@youngscottpmu1387]

King band, band of Kings ... In this Paris show, Bon Scott , the singer ( the great ) was sick !!!! ( true information ) Angus, the guitarist broke his string during the song, he changes guitar without stopping the show !!!! magic . hug from France, fan since 46 years .

[@markcox731]

Your Guy knows AC/DC , this is one of my favorites because he breaks a string mid Solo and still goes hard

[@nikkireviews]

He does! And yeah, he really just picked it right back up. Coming out without the guitar strap even. 😅

[@76whitecobra]

I thought he broke a string when I first saw this back in 92. But it was his pickups going out. Notice the sound in the solo got thin like the humbucker was acting like a single coil. His sweat was notorious for getting into the electronics and shorting them out.

[@PaulWilliams-q2e]

For your info, "Rosie" was a lady Bonn "spent time" with in Tasmania whilst they were playing the Apple Isle! It's a true story.

watch them live at the river plate - let there be rock - most incredible guitar solo

[@Stuart_Cox1969]

Nice to see someone react to this one, "The Jack" from the same show is fantastic, Angus really got the moves in the one.

[@andrewbayada2475]

I see one of the comments here saying there was three vocalists. That is correct. Dave Evans, ( no relation to former bass player Mark Evans, who is the only member/former member to write an autobiography on his time in the band & everything that happened after) was the original vocalist that was on their first single release. He sang, Can I sit next to you, girl on side A, & Rockin' in the Parlour on side B. He was literally kicked in the arse off stage at a gig once because they were doing a gig on tour once, & complained of having a cold & not wanting to give it his all. He was posing his satin clad arse to some girls in the front row like he was "The Show," when Angus threw his brother Malcolm a quick glance. Mal gave the nod, & as Dave turned back around, BOOT! Angus kicked him square in the arse off-stage! Bon Scott, who was their driver & sometimes fill in drummer, was asked to finish the show. Poor Dave had to watch on. Dave still claims to this day that he still belongs in the band. He even autographs Accadacca albums that he had nothing to do with. Sad!😢! But yeah, there you go!

[@holysmokes5817]

Hey now! Thank you! Thank you! The Live in Paris 1979...just awesome... Check out more!!!! Side note: "Rosie" was a 'famous' big boned, jolly and "fun" bar tender in New Zealand....

AC/DC are hard rock!

[@steffenjonda8283]

AC/DC was and is a blues rock band. If you do not belive - listen to the best AC/DC song, Ride on. You do not get more great blues Rosie was - at least as Bon told, a chick that had nailed 25 guys in that months (around the 10th of the month) and Bon was the next one... a huge gigant (around 190cm and 200kg).

[@MartinaBabic-es6bz]

AC/DC is hard rock, they invented hard rock!

[@ITNerd1970]

I know this is going to make me sound like an old head, but not many bands give their all on stage like AC/DC! Angus switching guitars mid song, always putting on a show. He is still moving around and banging that head even now in 2024! He might be a little bit slower, but he is still giving the audience his all!

[@nikkireviews]

I gotta check out a newer performance to see what it is like now. But you definitely don't sound like an "old head" 😂Just in the few performances I've watched, I can agree that most bands to do not match that kinda energy on stage. 😅

[@Alicatt1]

Been a while since I seen this :) A few years ago (2011) I got tickets for my wife and I to go to the "Family Jewels" exhibition and talk in Glasgow's Kelvingrove Museum about the band's link to Scotland, you know they were born just outside of Glasgow? Once the lecture was finished we were treated to AC/DC being played on the great organ in the main hall of the museum

[@chriscurtis1578]

Thats exactly why you always have a backup guitar ready to go! What a rocker!

[@PortCharmers]

I was quite surprised when Angus and Brian were at an interview and started a song, and Angus played SITTING DOWN. Before I saw this particlar clip I would have bet he can't play without moving around like he's got a wasp's nest in his pants.

The next Rainbow show was cancelled and then Dio and Rainbow split so I saw the last appearance of Dio with Rainbow. At least I got to see AC/DC with Bon Scott again that night.

Broke a string, I suppose. And Angus would later go wireless, which makes sense. He then apparently had his preferred sound. That is, a set that gave a certain overdrive/distortion/compression, and gain for playability.

3 singers, but the first one didn't last long. Here you see Bon Scott on vocals, he passed away in 1980. Brian Johnson is the 3rd and current vocalist. Yes, he broke a string, which necessitated the guitar change. The one lyric also said "But you give it all you got weighing in at nineteen stone". 19 stone = approx. 266 pounds.. Saw AC/DC in the mid 90's, and they used that inflatable Rosie at that show. The "Witches Burn" by The Pretty Reckless live video you watched, was opening for AC/DC.

Bon Scott was the 2nd singer of ACDC and the most appreciated by the rest of the group, he had a very strong friendship with a French group called TRUST, whose groups have known each other since 1977 or 1978. The French group was in London to prepare the album Répression which was gold in 1980 then platinum in 1981, moreover it is in the presence of this group in February 1980 that we hear Bon Scott's voice for the very last time. Moreover it was Bon Scott himself who was in charge of making the English version of the album. Ride On Bon ! kzbin.info/www/bejne/lai5g6VqlruDm8U
