1.5.09 AC/DC at the Q



So the boyf bought tickets to the AC/DC show in hopes of selling them and making a little dough. No dice.  Thus, I got a floor seat to the concert! I guess I should explain that I am a freelance web editor and work has been slow and therefore, no dough (rhyme alert! HOLLER!).  Evidently, there is something wrong with the economy;) I have been looking for a new job here in Cleveland since July to no avail, so my "fun money" has turned into my "please don't turn off my heat money."  Anyway, it is only due to my the boyf's misfortune that I was at the concert.
I am a big AC/DC fan and thought the show was great.  Between the pyro, the cannon fire and the 20 ft inflatable stripper, 'twas quite the spectacle.  They played a lot of the classics such as "Thunderstruck", "Dirty Deeds", and "Hells Bells" and mixed in a few of their new songs.  I was dying  to hear my fave, "If You Want Blood," but alas it was not on the set list.  The guys put on a great show and it was almost surreal to see Angus in his school boy uniform and even more surreal when he decided to take it off in an onstage strip-tease. i applaud the band for their unrelenting energy, but there were several times I thought Angus was going to have a heart attack.  Hands down this was the loudest concert I have ever attended.  Along with getting my face rocked off, I think I now have tinnitus, as my ears are still ringing.  For my first (and most likely last) AC/DC concert, the band did not disappoint.
