AC/DC bring high voltage rock ‘n’ roll hits to the masses at the Rose Bowl

A few valuable teams can fill a 52-year-old stadium of their career-not to mention playing for an audience inhabited by parents and their children, both generations that wear the red century gangs and cheering for a 77-year-old singer Brann Johnson and Angus Young 70.

But AC/DC did so completely, as he played 21 lyrical tones that can be recognized immediately from the large weight-the majority of classic rock radio foods and cultural touches-which are offered strongly and passionately with several decades of service. Go with “If you want blood (you got it),”, in the costume of his commercial pupil for this offer with the recognized black and white Gibson SG, take the theater to the bad appreciation.

Then it was “Back in Black”, the song and the album that was distinguished by Johnson in 1980 to the collection. The Frontman team has proven the crossing and moving graphics despite the serious hearing issues that resulted in its marginalization for a few frightening years, and a voice, from the concept, which does not always have the sustainability and strength of the previous days. Quintet played some paths from the last, “Power Up” for 2020, but as expected and appreciated, songs governed, from “Foot to Flames” to “Hels Bells” to the last crowd “Thunderstruck”.

The group group, despite the harsh perfection and strength in the rhythm section, was not a rapid flow, with somewhat frequent dark stage breaks between songs. The second half of the performance for two hours to the strongest-it appears that Johnson’s energy was renewed in this third offer from 13 in this Power Up tour.

The militants in the band may wonder whether the AC/DC may be a little or paid, as their career indicates. Other fans do not know or care about the squad of the squad, which took the first devastating role in February 1980 with the death of singer Bon Scott, 33. In less than six months, with a new confrontation man Johnson, formerly from Brit Band Geordie, AC/DC released one of the most formulated albums in history, “again in black”, “First 11 LPS) (so far) with Johnson.

Like Dickensian and Capp, Johnson is Rogy from Uber-Harming, and let everything from everything, the spirit of humor that he was breastfed with a hint of miscreants was not completely different from Scott’s behavior, although the singing of every man, ended, and the presence of the theater, was clearly his own. And the beloved in this way.

However, on February 28, 2016, in the midst of the AC/DC’s Rock or Bust Bust tour, doctors told Johnson that if he did not stop performing immediately, he risked by clearing complete hearing. By May 17, 2016, Guns N’s Roses Frontman Axl Rose joined AC/DC as a filling singer for twenty shows, a step that shocked many and made others happy. It seems that nothing will stop the tyrant who is AC/DC. They are simultaneously a group of brothers, literally – founded by Angus and the late brother Malcolm Young – but also no. The owner of the middle -aged music concert also pointed out: “Angus is everything about money and he and his brother [Malcom] I own the band. “However, this was the ten admirers^Y View on several continents, although he intentionally avoided seeing the rose -related version of the AC/DC.

Johnson, who managed to hear, returned to the barn by 2019, and after that, he plays live with AC/DC by October 2023. It is interesting, that one of the other teams that still fill the stadiums is in reality the N ‘ROSES guns. Even more than Daghagha: Rose and Slash, Johnson and Johnson and Ulywan Rock, attended their path through the crowd that incites thousands at moments and lifted their necks to take a look at the duo.

But all eyes were on stage for two hours. AC/DC has written songs on sexually transmitted diseases (“The Jack”); The Great Women (“Lotta are all Rosie”); Sharia meetings (“You shook me all night”, “I got balls”); Of course, hell (in the summary). All the melodies are strange, and even with a new era of political righteousness, never offended.

Despite any health challenges and depletion of the members, the AC/DC is still stopped and cannot be denied – the Young version of Chuck Berry’s Duckwalk has proven its natural energy, as expected and always expected (10 minutes?) Alone during the “Let The Rock”.

At least six songs in the group were manufactured by Scott, including “SIN CITY”, “Dirty Deeds Done Cheap”, “Rift RAFF”, “Let Tere Rock” and “Highway to Hell”, but they are a large part of Oeuvre in the band, it doesn’t matter that Johnson did not sing them for a longer period From Scott. Another fixed: AC/DC songs are often frequent in Lowbrow Bon mots – “Drink a drink on me”, “Hels Bells”, “Solid Alawite” – very common in the colloquial that AC/DC has invented ferries. At this stage, who knows; Maybe they did.

One of the good complaints that were directed to the band, is also a secret (other than) for the strength and continuation of the AC/DC power, success all over the world: it achieves the same record every time. If it is not broken, do not fix it. And when things do “break”, they are quickly fixed. Instead of the desired drama player in Phil Rudd, the approximation of the living squad is the drama player Matt Laug, with the two -year band; Skilled guitarist Chris Chani from Jin’s addiction. The Cleef Williams, who first joined AC/DC in 1977. There are “two young men” on the guitar; Angus and his nephew Stevi, 68, who replaced his uncle Malcolm in the band in 2014.

So, will AC/DC continue? Clearly, as long as they can. This is what they are doing. Will the fans, young and old fans, continue to appear? will. This is what they are doing. The world can be used around 2025 two hours of singing that is divided into 70,000 of the similar residents, and they celebrate the joys of the working class of wine, cold, rock and rock. AC/DC remains a band to present that joyful escape, from both parties. Since Scott Sang (and Johnson is unprecedented) on Bagpipe-Billrt “It is a long way to the top (if you want rock and roll),” AC/DC actually hit this top, and remains equal there.

AC/DC has provided a great service to get the reckless as the conquests. The singer Taylor Momsen had a great presence on the huge stage, seeing the “Cherie Currie Circa” passages, her ideal voice, her original leader’s voice like her magnetic presence in a positive way. I heard from a nearby seat: “I was completely blown.”

Like AC/DC, the band is driven by guitar and writing great songs, and its approach is a perfect combination of rock music that can be accessed with danger, size and strength of the metal. It is a shameful thing that AC/DC is on stage on stage, because Momsen-Johnson will be a proposal for ages.
