Band jokes about playing AC/DC, crowd takes over

[Leumas]

This is pretty cool! I love live music. The singer off-handedly played the intro to you shook me and the crowd took it from there!

 

[Dilemma]

The dude that took the solo. Yamaha?

It looks a lot like the Ibanez dc model, but that headstock screams Yamaha. Way to pull off a solo on the spot!

Yamaha SG, AKA “Les Paul Killer”.

 

[LP Traditional]

Man that was totally epic!

With the current state of the world, I swear I almost started crying by the end.....

And that, my friends, is why processed, auto-tuned, corporate, 'urban', latino-beat, hi-energy dance R&B hip-crap is destroying our civilisation and sucking kids souls out through their rear ends! In other words; Let There Be Rock!!!

this is why that song is a non-negotiable. if im in the band, that song is on the play;ist. its a 100% crowd pleaser and not as awful as the usual ones. black betty and kickstart my heart are the other 2 that are musts if u r playing bars

 

[PeteK]

[Brek]

Yamaha SG, AKA “Les Paul Killer”.

The "Les Paul Killer"...

That's a good one!



I remember those.
Made of the same wood combo and other specs as a Les Paul.
SD '59 pickups (IIRC).
Sounded good.

As Rodney Dangerfield would have said:

"What a crowd, what a crowd!"

Inspiring...and kudos to the group for taking the cue and
running with it. Rock on...

Thanks, Leumas. A great post.

AC/DC often gets poked fun at how of their all songs sounds alike.. this right here is why they’re great.. decades later people still get moved by them..

Angus is why I have a SG myself.. it’s impossible to play one without sneaking one of their riffs in there.

Thanks, Leumas. A great post.

Side comment... EVERYone in that pic was an origiinal, and NONE of them sounded like ANY of the others. Each had their own thing, none needed any autotune crap, and they could do it in ONE take, do it live, whatever.

That was great, I was smiling the whole way through.
I love that moments like that in live music are memorable for everyone involved, crowd and band alike.

 

[Crotch]

The audience sounds like all chicks. Might be a good show to go to

 

[Fiat Lux]

That was great! Props to the band for having the smarts to go with it, and for the front guy to act the way he did, giving the audience praise and recognition. That would have been a great gig after that (if it had not been before).

cheers.

 

[OHIOSTEVE]

That was great.....a good crowd, regardless of size , makes for a great time on stage
