Such a great Original band , but apparently given no choice but to play this cover. Still did a bloody good job 👏👏👏

Best find this year

[@user-ye9ph5iq5z]

I freaking love these guys🤟🤟

[@jacquelinewillmington7763]

Bloody brilliant! ❤

[@monmixer]

See this young ones, no need for even 1 Marshall half stack. I sold mine decades ago due to way to FKN loud and bought a Deluxe Reverb. and that guitar is NOT a Gibson. It's a Guild.

[@vvkv6148]

Rock and roll 🐈🇬🇪

[@gjackson6569]

It would be awesome if these guys went as an opening band for AC/DC.

[@juancarlosgallardoblanco9595]

Esto si que levanta el animo

[@mrandy8224]

Cool as fuck!

[@autumnwind9684]

Wow! It was obvious how restrained they were in every regard! They could have aced The Jack outta it!! Part rebellion, other part… SQ “that’s Rock & Roll Man!” Brilliant cover nonetheless. Sidenote… my Partner, Tonka - Paul Chapman June 9, 1954 - June 9, 2020, was the last to see & party with Bon Scott. Was Paul & Pete Way… I’ve got the dirt!,

[@lennypichardoborrello6532]

nice story, thanks for sharing

[@MatthewJohnCrittenden]

Great live band. Go check them out if in your neck of the woods.

[@alabamadread]

But they do it spectacular

[@monmixer]

Anyone how this band can be booked into a Casino showroom and how much they charge to just come and play. Audio, lights provided.

It's a long way to the shop if you want a sausage roll

[@1965simonfellows]

.... the utterly numbed, disembodied audience. Elegantly, bum shakingly played and there they sit.

Get to Sheffield village ohio we accept cast offs........rock on

Dinner circuit!

[@cosmickidd205]

Shame they didn't play chimney. But a fantastic band.

[@kevinbreese5739]

Great band and song...extremely odd crowd for the performance.

[@clickbaitnumberone1403]

WHAT THE HECK IS THAT??? Sitting down for dinner watch playing AC/DC Songs?

[@paddypoolfc3579]

Wtf is this audience doing? These guys are wasted on them.

[@michaelbailey7483]

How can you do this song without the bagpipes come on man they could have picked another AC/DC song but still a great band

[@davidsellers3639]

Did AC/DC play it live with bagpipes?probably not

[@nathanainger3916]

The fact they had to play a cover still anoys me.

[@geckogirl_1173]

Get over yourself... 👍

[@nathanainger3916]

​@@geckogirl_1173 umm ? These guys are one the best live bands in the country.Should been given chance to play a southern river band song not a cover.

[@marinhobrandao]

well, they picked the best song for the situation :D :D I found it genial

[@jayfulk3446]

Honestly, this song gave cal Kramer a lot of room to show what he's about. Hes probably the best front man in the US currently, and I feel they picked the perfect song to showcase that.

[@marinhobrandao]

@@jayfulk3446 I thought they were from Australia

[@rainerfischer9713]

Bob Scott würde sich im Grabe drehen wenn er das hört. Aber wers mag….

[@DrSnook]

I'd stick to the your own material, which is brilliant, but I'd advise putting yourself in direct comparison with Bon Scott era ACDC. You're always going to come off second best.

[@ACDZ123]

They would of been forced by the AFL to play a cover.these guys are an original band..not covers

[@mickandsejstock9207]

They’re doing the hard slog, had to do a cover to get the gig, loved the comment at the end. Turned down Coldplay ffs, would have been great exposure but stuck to their standards. Pity I’m wrong side of the planet but at least they’re coming UK next month 🤘🤘

[@Maxindifference]

Wasted on that miserable crowd

[@Neil-Aspinall]

The Bass sounds terrible here.

[@brin57]

This called selling your soul to the AFL for a payday. They should have said “if you want the Southern River Band” we play our song. Otherwise get one of the dozens of corporate/wedding bands who could play this song as well if not better. They lost cred doing this.

[@solitudeausmusic]

I don't think so at all. It was great publicity and at the end Cal says check out our original stuff. I think you have a pretty negative perspective on this.

[@brin57]

@@solitudeausmusic Let's just say we agree to disagree. And yes, I have a very negative perspective on this. That's my whole point.

[@wallybingbang4350]

Awful - murdering Bon Scott song !!!!

[@Dan_moon_sun]

Why moan about a band doing a cover? They are not f$$$king REPLACING it, they are just covering it. The original is still there for you to listen to anytime you feel the need.

[@caltravels9454]

If you want to be an AC/DC cover band do it, your own songs suck, complete ripoffs of AC/DC.

[@solitudeausmusic]

That was uncalled for. The band was asked by the AFL to cover this song, and their songs actually sound more like thin Lizzy than ACDC if you ask me.

[@caeserromerosorangewedges]

They weren't given a choice. Get out and see 'em live, the best new thing I've seen in 20 years.

[@Skoora]

I’ve only discovered these guys recently and anyone who just thinks they’re AC/DC or ripping off AC/DC isn’t really listening to everything these guys are doing. They encompass a lot of different styles. It’s not like their Airborne or some crap like that. These guys are actually making music, not a schtick.
