Finally some news!

I wish there was some real news.  We are just getting fed more rumor. Argggghhggg.

Nice! I wonder if Phil and Cliff are also still involved, and what the new album situation will be. Hopefully the rumor of it consisting of leftover Malcolm tracks is true. Would also be nice if Axl did a guest spot (I read a rumor of that somewhere).

on the other hand, this may just be a 40th anniversary Back In Black tour, which id also be fine with, honestly.

I can’t imagine Brian is going to tour and risk whatever condition his hearing is in getting worse. Not many bands play louder the DC. He can easily track an album in a studio setting without being in front amps or PA. Hearing loss isn’t reversible.  I just can’t see it happening considering Brian’s health.  JMHO.  We will see.

At the show people were crowd surfing the whole time. Out of the 20 shows I’ve seen, this one ranks top 3 for crowd intensity. At least from where I was at

Does anyone know how many people were actually there last night. It was packed up front.

It was well over 40,000. They announced the entire weekend at 129,000 and  Saturday was their biggest attended day. No specific numbers for Saturday though. 

Here’s my unsolicited take in the whole deal.  I can’t possibly imagine a world where Brian can front AC/DC in a live setting again.They’re loud AF. Putting vocals together in the studio for an album makes sense and could easily be done without risking his hearing. Hearing loss is not reversible and I’m at a loss every time I hear someone say Brian’s been cured and will be fronting the band again. I hope they put an album together with Brian. I also hope to hell Axl gets to tour with Angus in whatever capacity he wants to play music. My first concert was KISS and DC in 1977. I loved them live for decades.  My only interest in seeing them today is with Axl out front. JMHO 🍻

Yes!

Can't wait for Rock on the Range. New tunes would be great,but in all reality, I conceded a long time ago.I keep showing up and grabbing the top tier VIP package. Take my fucking money ! That is all.

Rocklahoma 2013. VIP at ROTR in Columbus will be the next gig we attend.

Admission for two,4 nights accommodations,shuttle from airport,to and from the event. Food and alcohol at event. Private bar and restrooms. Blah blah t shirts blah blah laminates blah m&g blah swag. Mostly no lines to get a drink or take a piss !!! and decent seats.

I picked up the $2500 VIP package. We flew to Rocklahoma with the same deal for the gig last May.They went on 30 minutes late and played 2.5 hrs at Rocklahoma. Couldn't resist caching GnR in our back yard again. It's a short drive over from central Indiana. I've gone to couple Stones gigs in Columbus. Great college town.I understand there is an 11 pm curfew at Crew Stadium.

Im in !! We flew to Tulsa for Rocklahoma. No way we miss a gig in the backyard,on my birthday no fucking less!!!

My two favorite bands G'n'R & Van Halen have so damn many similarities it's maddening ! Can't wait til they pair em up on a colossal trainwreck North American tour.

That's the one. Many thanks !!!

OT: Anyone recall the animated video played at the end of the gigs in 91? A mad butcher ranting as he sliced himself to pieces and telling the crowd to GTFO?

It's going to suck if Axl never signs them because I paid $'s for these

. Just curious how much you paid,of that's not too intrusive?

A fair bit which is why I hope we do actually get the cards I know it's risky with Axl

It's going to suck if Axl never signs them because I paid $'s for these

I sent in my redemption code. After 8 weeks it is still pending. Axl is late again ?
