minor mistake in review:
I bought this double live album back in '93 ( at least in Belgium it was released on the same date as the single disc ).
As for the supposed woman-unfriendly band AC/DC would be. I tend to disagree, they mostly put a lot of irony in what they are doing. Often singing about stereotypical macho/male imagery, which often makes you wonder if they are supporting it or just laughing at it. I think it's mostly somewhere in between.
My favorite there must be "Moneytalks" 'come on come on love me for the money, come on come on listen to the money talk'.
whose irony makes it clear to me that this is not so much an adoration of rich snobbish man, but more an ironic view on women who are MUCH more interested in the man's money then in the men himself.
Also listen to what Brian says before he sings "Hard as a rock" In Münich 2000, he apologizes for the supposed shocking effect of the song. Although there is nothing woman-unfriendly about this song.

its an amazing album, but my only complaint is highway to hell, i think brians singing butchered it, but other than that, its a great album
