Off To See AKKA DAKKA Tonight.

I guess if you don't know who that is then it's meaningless...;)

 

I 'may' have to concede and take earplugs ...;)

We used to pronounce them "AkDak". No meaning one way or the other, "everybody" just knew who AkDak was.  I can't believe Angus is still bouncing around on those legs.

Ya it's probably either earplugs or a couple of days of saying "What?"  ;)

What?

It was good....acoustics could be better as always in a footy stadium.

Angus's guitar solo was brilliant....all 15 minutes plus of it...;)

I was a little concerned about some moderate power fluctuations and a little subtle seismic activity, but then I sensed the faint distant rumblings of Hells Bells so I knew all was as it should be.  |-)

o_O  Never?   My favorite voltages are AC/DC.  Hope you had a truly epic time at the concert, Paul.

I know AC/DC but I never heard of AKKA DAKKA and I live on this planet too.

Uvah....like all things, Aussies like to simplify speech...

Aye Cee Dee Cee are all hard sounds.  Ah Kuh Dah Kuh are soft and far easier to say.

So we're lazy....;)

Akka Dakka were never the same after Bon Scott died.... just couldn't get into 'em with Brian Johnson as Scott's replacement.

Yep, Angus is still bouncing around on those legs pretty well.  It amazes me, that's a lot of years of a lot of bouncing.  "Bounce on, Angus!"  :thumbsup:

Thanks for the vid.

I went to the concert with a mate I went to school with....he's the guy in this clip with the long blond hair walking at the left rear of the truck carrying a genny for the lights...;)

 

BTW...OH and S would never allow this these days....standing on a flat-bed in traffic...;)
