Back In Black 2009
I can't stand the fact that Brian says "We're back" during Back In Black on the current tour. It's driving me nuts. Somebody please tell me I'm not crazy.
I hate it as well. While I also don't like when he says "mama", I would actually prefer it to "we're back".
Can't stand the fact that we have to listen to the 5new songs again. I donno about BiB, i'm headbanging so i can't quite listen to Brian.
Sap, I don't understand why you hate the new songs. Is it just a vendetta against Brian or something? I think you need to be more considerate of the fact that many people DO want to hear the new songs. And Cody, I doubt Brian could sing it without the "mamas" live. But the "We'res" just sound so forced, and they break up the flow of the chorus.
Well they are back in some form of black or another. Just gotta live with it guys, they're over the age of 18 and doing whatever they hell they want to do now.
Hey guys, In all honesty I would also prefer them to unleash some tunes they have't played in years. I have loved this band for 30 years and just want stuff like Walk All Over You or If YOu Want Blood, MAYBE 3/4 OF THE POWERAGE ALBUM (it would be nice). I have heard Boogie, RnRANP enough. I know tons of fans love them but jsut wish they would play some dusty tunes. As far as the new songs go, unfortunately they have to blay the title track (one of the weakes ones in my op) Anything Goes is baically Money Talks (top 40 sounding). I like hearing BJ and WM, but would gladly pass those up for some classic tracks. And also hate to say this but I don't believe you will hear HAR or SUL. They are good songs but they have waaay too many to choose from to make erveryone happy. Thanks for letting me rant... LOL
Hey suicide.I don't "Hate" the new songs , well except anything goes, but i think we all listen to them so they must do as the other tours.Cut some new down an put old back. Anyway whatever i may say AC/DC have a mind of their own and apparently they are a stubborn one.Anyhow there is now way in the wor;d that i'm going to another gig (except Athens) if they continue play this set.
and the argument rages on, and on, and on ad infinitum hee hee hee thank the lord and give praise, my bastard PC is back from the dead (again),bloody thing! Said it before and I will say it again, AC/DC were/are the best band in the world as far as I am concerned,and I will spend £$£$ following 'em and buying up there msic as long as they contine to release it. BECAUSE I BELIEVE IN AC/DC AND I TRUST THE YOUNG BROS. (PREDOMINANTLY MALCOLM), INTEGRITY IN NOT RELEASING ANYTHING THAT DONT REACH THE AC/DC STANDARD! BUT!! Ive spent the last coupla days listening to my music with the PC being not well, mostly DC, suprise suprise eh?, both official and boots and not being one to subscribe to the Brian V Bon argument per se, I found myself gravitating to the Bon era stuff, there just seems to be more "immediacy" to the material, and certainly the gigs. As I already said, AC/DC in my view are THE band, but I hope they aint turning into a massive touring corporate jukebox, Sapators comments elsewhere got me thinking, Please bow out before it becomes vaudville, that would be criminal. And lastly, try listening to Bon era stuff,the lyrics, the rifffs, the solos, and tell me anything since the 80s can touch it, Black Ice? good rock album in todays market theres no competition, but lets not kid ourselves an 8 yr wait IS going to guarantee HUGE sales, but it aint a classic. just my opinion you understand,feel free to shoot me down but its GOOD to be back peace people Dave
Agree 100% with Dave. I wouldn't have said what i say if i didn't really like the bastards(ac/dc). If they were an average band, they could go fu%c themselves but i'm talking about my favorite band in the last 15 years. Dave can you explain to me this: "dont wear a watch, go herbal bros, the time will melt and youll have a ball" What "go herbal" means? Smoke a pot or something?Sorry was in Portsmouth when in England and the only slang was "have a ball" and "got a flag?" :P
They are trying to SELL A NEW ALBUM. It stands to reason that they would play cuts from it. yeah, there are older tunes I'd rather hear too, but if they are selling out the stadiums, what do they care? If they can sell more albums by doing BI cuts, I can hardly blame them for doing it.
