July 21 1979 . Day On The Green also called MONSTERS OF ROCK . Oakland, California . AC / DC with Bon Scott ( whom six months latter would be tragically taken from us ). Also on the bill this day was Aerosmith, Ted Nugent, Mahogany Rush and more . Rare video with less than perfect audio . Improved audio ( as much as I could ) and video presented in wide screen 16:9 aspect ratio .

lyrics:

"Well if you're lookin' for trouble
I'm the man to see
If you're lookin' for a-satisfaction
I'm satisfaction guaranteed
I'm as cool as a body on ice
Or hotter than a rollin' dice
Send you to heaven
Take you to hell
I ain't foolin'
Can't you tell

I'm a live wire
I'm a live wire
I'm a live wire
Gonna set this town on fire

And if you need some lovin'
And if you need some man
You've got the phone and the number
And I got no future plans
Oh come on honey you got nothin' to lose
You got the thirst 'n I got the booze
Give you an inch
Take you a mile
I wanna make you fry

I'm a live wire
Live Wire
I'm a live wire
Live wire
I'm a live wire
Live wire
Holy smoke and sweet desire

And a hotrod, baby
Oh, stick this in your fuse box

Wel-ahhhh
Cooler than a body on ice
Hotter than the rollin' dice
Wilder than a drunken fight
You're gonna burn tonight

I'm a live wire
Live wire
I'm a live wire
Live wire
I'm a live wire
Live wire
And I'm gonna set this town on fire

Live wire
Live wire
I'm a live wire
Live wire
Well I'm a live wire
Live wire
I'm a live wire
Live wire
Look at me burn
Oowh, look at me
Look at me
Someone save me
Look at me burn
Burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn, burn"

  • this when i first started getting into ac/dc, I was 10 and lived in San Jose. Unfortunately, my strict parents wouldn't let me see a show until the "For Those About to Rock" tour.  still a fan 30 yrs later, and still live in San Jose, CA.. My all time favorite band.

  • @pucknut68 Hey I saw them on the Highway To Hell tour @ Rocky Point a now closed amusement park in Rhode Island they were just about to break in the U S . those were the days, what I'd give . . . .

  • I wish I had been at this show but watching the artists perform from footage from their appearances here on youtube I feel Ive been there, Why cant the young make us get off our seats anymore or at least make us jealous? cmon kids put down the game console and get ya self a gibson sg or a large drum kit at least. Fanx for sharing. TURN IT UP CHARLIE.

  • 1st time I saw them was Day on the green in july 1978. They opened for Aerosmith, Foreigner, Van Halen, and Pat Travers. Cheap Trick was supposed to open, but canceled for some reason. Ac/Dc took their place. We were pissed. Nobody knew who they were. Until they started playing TNT. They rocked and stole the show!

  • @classic7890 IF YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW BONDS GENIUS LISTEN TO THE SONG BIG BALLS THAT IS A SONG BRIAN CANT DO - HE SAID IF YOUR NAME IS ON THE GUESS LIST NO ONE CAN TAKE YOU HIGHER EVERYBODY SAYS IVE GOT GREAT BALLS OF FIRE.THATS BON SCOTT

  • Another concert I wasn't cool enough to know about.

  • I want a juice box. give me a juice box.

  • Listen to that crowd!! I'm glad Bon lived to do a day on the green!! Correct me if I'm wrong but I think this was the boys first performance ever in the bay area. I didn't make it to this one but I remember buying powerage not knowing much about these guys and my buddies were telling me about this headbanging kid playing guitar. We didn't know what hit us!

  • I was at that show. The remaining band not mentioned was St. Paradise. It was my first and only Day On The Green. Great memories.

  • @tool5150 Saw them twice with Bon & once with Jonna,- a completly different band.. Jonna came in a made bed, thats for shure
