That video cracks me up every time, but somehow it wasn't the same seeing AC/DC at a festival... way better with AC/DC exclusive fans in the arena on the tour, when the lights went down so it was the most exciting animation I've ever seen in my life. I can still remember the feeling in my gut so well!
was anyone in the really bad crush on the left side of the runway during Back in Black, that was the scariest shit i've ever been in but i was thinking,"there can't be a better way to go than this...swear to god, when i looked up malcolm young was lookin right at me man. Awesome night.
@jembrannan - yeah man, i was on malcolms side right at the front,, i got pulled out in the middle of back in black cause people were fainting and getting hurt everywhere man, it was crazy shit... fucking immense gig though
@jembrannan I remember the squeeze in the first two or three songs as I tried to get closer to the front (without pushing in front of people like an arsehole) and some guy clambering back going 'Oh....my.....God.....DO NOT GO OVER THERE', before collapsing onto a short fat woman. I went over there, and got the living daylights kicked out of me to my favourite band. Best day ever.
Jeez i was so pissed and stoned good gig though lol ! Lost me glasses and had walk back to donnington village to get a taxi to nottingham expensive day !
I wnt, was good, AC/DC werent the best for me that weekend. I was near the front too, 2 ppl in front of me, was nearlyt crushed, so had to be pulled out!!!
@Riff28Raff yh i would of but my pussy V festival going faggot friend wouldnt go any further forward, and he even left halfway through! and dragged me out of the crowed to near the toilets cause he needed a sit down :(
I was further back about half way up the hill and i can vouch for all the crazy people that were at the front, it was manic. pretty much everyone up to the barriers, so were talking like about 8,000-10,000 people (literally), were jumping constantly the whhhhhhhhhooolllleeee gig, no joke.
Kinda wish i had been down there, but i also like my legs to function properly so i decided not to risk it lol, coz it was crazy!!
Awesome gig though, there was an awesome atmosphere even half way up the hill!
if the ginger guy wearing a blue tshirt who was in middle distance, im sorry for for kicking you in the back, its just u were in the way and i did ask you to move 20 times, awesome gig! first AC/DC gig!
awesome gig, this was also my first festival, and i loved every minute! i was near the far left screen, only about 100 yards from the stage, cant wait until next year.
@bbvibrabb We were literally squashed like 30,000 sardines in a fuc_king big tin. If you could move it was to raise your hand and move it a little. You go to an ac/dc gig and get to the front then you will know.
@bbvibrabb lame crowd? you were'nt there obviously. This guy has it on zoom. I was near the front on the right side of the stage, it was manic. They had a longer stop in between songs because some of the crowd were hurt down the front.
@cjxked12 Some numpty said it was a lame crowd so i answered. We know how manic the crowd was. Saw DC at Wembley last year as well and that crowd was brilliant as well.
@Riff28Raff Hi Mate yes I was in that spot in front Mal Young. We probably helped each other up. I had a Retro SAXON top on that said Live to Rock. I would like to thank a French guy for helping the Girlfriend up. Some bird from Nottingham near us and some Ierland and local lads next to us. I also remember a dude who looked like Jonny Depp with pink or white shades on near us. What a mad Gig
@Riff28Raff Hi Mate maybe you were talking to me down at the front before the gig started. I was next to some guys from Ireland who were singing ROCK N ROLL ANT NOISE POLLUTION. Maybe you fell on me or we both helped each other up ?
id wish i where there i really want to see them again i saw them in horsens denmark fucking inzane but it would bee awesome to have been there at donnington this year
I know why some people wrere in tears because they were nearly crushed to DEATH ! The crowd went over at the front where I were ! two guys under me and 4 ended up on top of me. Very strange monment, I was a very young teenager at the age of 15 years when I was in the crown at the 1988 monsters of rock gig when two guys were crushed to death when GnR were playing. Brain Johnnson coild even see people been crushed on the floor at this gig thats why they pasued for 5 !!!!!!
What a great show. In fact it was a brilliant three days! I was down near the front right stage for AC/DC, it was a bit manic! they were pulling poeple out everywhere. I saw people in tears and the look of horror on their faces who clearly should'nt have been in there.
@zerociipher I'm glad somebody agrees with me. Its the only problem I think with having such a fan intensive show shown to people who will casually listen to the band, all those "Oh highway to hell is my favourite track" puckerred rings. I saw them at Hampden Park, Glasgow last year and it was, without doubt one of the best gigs i've ever been to.
the timing on the screen was purely a screen problem, they were having that problem with a few bands. For all those that thought the singers were lip sinking, thats pathetic, these are rock bands and its live, not fuckin top of the pops.
I was fairly close at the start of the gig, but me and my mate pushed our way through for to the front for Let there Be Rock. Nearly got killed but was totally fucking worth it.
i was basically at the barrier directly in front of you with the camera so i had an awesome time... the surges pissed me right off though. seriously, if someone falls in a pit or in a surger you make room and get them up but people were falling and people helping them up were getting pushed to falling on them. saw one guy with 6 fat blokes on him!!
@mishmoshwash I AGREE!!!! We moved to the back eventually because I along with some other woman were being crushed by those idiots! I lost my temper and shoved back...not that it made a difference. A lot of us were trying to enjoy the music... :( Not get wrapped up in their stupidity
@anakha6 learn to read.... i wasnt there, and i didnt mention about being able to 'handle a mosh pit'.... i theres a big diiference between a moshpit and being kicked by a cunt
It was awesome!! the only bad thing was the white thrash that kicked me and broke my ankle!!! He did it on purpose and now I am on crutches and a cast =@
@milko361 the tiniest fraction of a second, just for the picture to get from the camera to the screen. other than that it was probably because you were too far away, and sound travels pretty slowly. i was on the barrier halfway down the catwalk, under a sweaty armpit. was awesome.
@djdom43 Hey I got over it. I realised after the gig i should have walked back a bit further and watched from the hill and been eye level with the stage! Never mind.
i was right down the front by the barrier, it was absolute mayhem-missed the first 3 tracks trying to fight my way out. Rather have been stood where you were to film this, good footage
how long does event like this actually end???
