We saw AC/DC tonight in Omaha and it was a pretty great rock concert. The consistent highlight was seeing Angus Young go absolutely nuts running around the stage with his guitar. He's one of the strangest dudes in rock with his shorts, tie, and weird facial expressions, but he was incredibly energetic and is a great performer. This is the best pic I got at the show with my lousy cell phone cam.
Here's another one I found on the web of Angus in action.
The set props in the show were also pretty cool, though none of my pictures really came out. The first prop was a life sized train engine that rolled out blasting flames and smoke. Later some kind of scantily clad balloon woman the size of a Thanksgiving day float inflated out of the train and rode it like a toy horse. During "Hell's Bells" a giant AC/DC bell lowered from the rafters which lead singer Brian Johnson swung from and appeared to ring. During the encore, they played "For Those About to Rock We Salute You" and six full sized cannons rolled out and blasted at the appropriate times during the song. Nifty, but my ears are still ringing!
