    lots to do by the looks of it.

    No backline or sound there yet. Front of house is not built yet . Video and lights not started. Mojos not installed , stage not finished.


    Get your finger out lads.....


    Residential area.. It is all done in one day Blitzkrieg style.. Locals would rather 100 trucks in 1 day than 10 trucks over 10 days..

    I haven't watched the video to which you refer, but I don't think that it is the full concert.



    On setlist.fm, it is listed that they played 20 songs in Munich on 19th May.

    http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/acdc/2015/olympiastadion-munich-germany-5bc85fc0.html

    I think the word, full, in the description of the video on youtube, is referring to full HD, rather than being the full show?

    In Punchestown, on Sunday 28th June 2009, they played 20 songs and the show was about two hours long.

    http://www.setlist.fm/setlist/acdc/2009/punchestown-racecourse-naas-ireland-7bd6724c.html

    They played a song extra in Punchestown, Dog Eat Dog, which they didn't play in Dublin on Saturday 18th April 2009.

    The Dublin gig, on Saturday 18th April 2009, was a few minutes short of two hours long.

    This video of the Madrid show last month, is just under two hours in length:

    Never been to Aviva before...

    If you have tickets for the Upper Stand is there any way to sneek into the Pitch area halfway through the gig (or do you have to know someone in security)??

    I'm in Block 524 Upper, 4th row so probably as good as it's gets up there but I'd say it still feels removed from the action up there..

    Lined up for about 5 or 6 hours on Sunday to get front barrier, was worth it. Show is great, love the setlist. Looking forward to tomorrow.

    I was working for a couple of the big gigs in there. People often found the sound in the uppers to be bad.

    The bass notes bounce around up there. Maybe they have fixed this problem, but I am bring earplugs just in case. Too much sound makes it inaudible..

    Just managed to get 2 standing tickets through the UK ticketmaster site! Delighted!

    Am absolutely shattered after 5 days at Rock Werchter but securing these tickets has just given me a second wind!

    Yeah it seems there's a few available on TB but for some reason since they moved to those foodie picture captchas they don't work on my computer!! Anyone else having this problem with Ticketb*rd captchas?

    Got my ticket on Done Deal so all happy now regardless ;)

    Any idea what time they take to the stage tomorrow?

    All details above.

    Can anyone recommend a pub for a gang to meet up in prior to the gig to set the atmosphere?

    Beggars Bush is where we go before the football matches, nice outdoor area, burgers on sale and decent pints reasonably quickly delivered as they're used to big crowds.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,920 ✭✭✭dashcamdanny


    Tickets are sold out again by the looks of it.

    Really looking forward to it now.

    Haven't seen them live since '91 when I was 17 (please don't do the maths :P).

    Still have my Angus dollar bill than they rained down on us back then.

    Balls have that stupid sound pole blocking my view of the stage. 97.50 for a ticket and I have an obstructed view. Ah well

    I'm the same I think. I'm in the lower south stand. All I could get at the time so took them but kind of worried about what kind of view I'll have now. Eyesight isn't as good as it used to be either!

    You might as well. Great entertainment, good weather, couple of beers. What more could you ask for?

    A smoking area :)

    Brian Johnson and Phil Rudd smoked throughout the gig in the Point a few years back. If anyone stops you smoking, point at the stage.

    Malcolm also smoked. As far as I recall, it was during Angus's extended solo section of Let There Be Rock.
