[QUOTE=angusmaster]Has anyone seen that stiff upper lip tour dvd,ive been thinking about buying it,but i wanna know if its good or not.[/QUOTE]

Yeah I've got and used to watch it a fair bit, Donnington is better though I'd say. Family Jewels is awesome, the old stuff is by far the best

I have Live at Donnington. It's my only AC/DC DVD so I don't really know what's better.

I'd go for Donnington, or even if you can... Let there be rock.

Yes Let There Be Rock would be great. We need it on DVD.

Family Jewels could have used some more live stuff. We need Let there be Rock on DVD.

Agreed... but still what live stuff was on Family Jewels, was awesome.

Especially Fling Thing/Rocker / Riff Raff / For those about to Rock.

Yeah Riff Raff is class, especially on "If You Want Blood.." and Family Jewels, such a powerful, driving song. I would've liked Live Wire to have been on the Family Jewels DVD because I downloaded a version of it live but it being on a DVD would obviously improve the quality greatly.

I used to love AC/DC. A long time ago, actually a long long time ago, I used to like hip hop and rap. AC/DC was the band I listened to as I made the transition from rap to rock. Then from AC/DC I moved to Metallica which gave me the transition from rock to metal. Now I listen to all kinds of music.

But now, I really hate AC/DC. The solos are way to traditional. The bass is simplistic, the singer is terrible and most songs sound the same. They are a really great introduction band, but they get tiring after a while.

Thats quite a cynical way to look at a band you once admired. You listen to all kinds of music, like what?

Look in my profile under interests. I don't mean all kinds as in everything from blues to classical to jazz to metal.

Basically stuff from soft rock to progressive metal.

fair enough, Pink Floyd and the Beatles, nothing but class. Jazz is also awesome, Cool Jazz and jazz/rock/fusion would have to be my personal favourites.

1.)Money Talks
2.)She shook me all night long
3.)Whole Lotta Rosie

.... :naughty: :naughty: :naughty:

lol jp, but really, it is just a smiley that is supposed to show your emotions in your post, who cares if it is overused. Personally i think they look rather funny but for arguments sake ill give you a example. In my school Led Zeppelin and AC/DC now-a-days is overused in the sense that people say they like them just to seem cool, yet it is something i deal with and will have to deal with for the rest of the time im in highschool.... and personally i dont really care if i get flamed, i use MX to pass the time when im bored anyway. Hope you see my point :thumb:

edit:actually my example was sorta irrelevant but w/e

I dont care if it was irrelevant. Its a big problem, only a couple of people I kno actually like these bands (one has all of Zeppelin except Houses of the Holy and CODA on vinyl) but whenever I wear my AC/DC shirt I get shouts of "accadacca" in a really forced Aussie accent(I live in Australia). And all these people have only heard Back In Black 'cause it gets played at sports carnivals.

AC/DC are a great band, simplness is a way to make it to the top if people like the music. i do dissagree on the fact that you said they arent good musicians as angus young is a superb guitarist. but overall they are a great band :)

In a quote from a guy I can't remember, I think it mighta been Chris Cheney. "We can all play blues scales but we can't play them like Angus Young"

Thats true, people comment on the simplicity but whoever has attempted to emulate AC/DC's sound has failed, in their style they cannot be surpassed, well from what I have witnessed.

I couldn't pick 5 favourite AC/DC tracks but Riff Raff would certainly be up there if not occupying the first position.

For me Riff Riff gets a comfortable second. Beating Around The Bush gets first.

I like the opening guitar riff in that song, nice track that.

I like the vocals too.

I would say the best ac/dc lyrics would be for Touch Too Much. Too d[B][I][/I][/B]amn many inuendos. :lol:

AC/DC is amazing but too many n00bs who don't know even whos in the band like them becuase they are"in" or were in a video game. i love all 80s and classic rock. Angus young is amazing on guitar and has a great knowledge of pentatonics and chords and is not that repetitive.
