AC/DC was my favorite band in high school. I love that Disney used Thunderstruck in Planes 2 because it was my son’s favorite song for a while...

I'm glad I saw them when I did. It will never be the same. They lost George Young earlier, now Malcolm. They inspired me to play guitar. Meaning, all I know is 3 chords.... lol. Great band, great music. RIP

The first concert I ever went to was AC/DC "Back in Black". Everything was pretty much downhill from there. I have been a huge AC/DC fan since early in the Bon Scott days when my friend's older brother came home with the "High Voltage" album. Malcolm's sound was so integral to what made AC/DC great. I was always amazed at his use of open chords and how they... OK, rambling now.

RIP.

Same here.... 1980, Springfield Ma.
I saw them 3 other times after, but the one that killed me was in 2009, Gillette stadium (home of the Patriots!!) 2 guys standing next to me.... AC/DC starts playing "hells bells" and I yell over, "I remember them playing this song in 1980, for the first time!!!" one of the guys says, "I'm only 23 years old!!!" I never felt so old...
