During the first minute of 'Dirty Deeds' you can hear loud audience noise, as well as some pops and crackles - that's hail coming down and us complaining about it (it hailed for about half a minute)! Also, just before 'Thunderstruck' I could hear real thunder and see a flash, so 'perfect weather' indeed^^... Brian messes up 'Big Jack' as he continues to sing the lyrics when Angus starts his solo. Before 'Dirty Deeds done dirt cheap' Brian says "Alright Wels!" During 'You shook me all Night long' Brian sings "...Austrian Tights..." At the end of 'For those about to Rock' Brian says "We salute you Wels!", and just after the song has finished he shouts "We salute you Austria!" ----- For those of you who haven't heard this yet: This concert was preceeded by some discussions about environmental concerns (there are rare birds nesting in the area of the airfield during May, hence the discussion about allowing or not allowing the concert to happen, setting a decibel limit, moving the gig to a different location (...), and also rumours about bombs of WWII still to be on the site - all these things could not stop the Rock 'n' Roll Train to arrive at 'Railroad Airport' Wels, delivering a load of High Voltage Rock 'n' Roll :)
